    Anyway, the RF 50 is definitely larger than the Sigma 50A, but... the difference isn't quite as large as the original comparison shows.
    Ha....that certainly explains part of it.

    But, I was hoping that, as part of "mirrorless" the lenses would be smaller...at least by a bit. Instead, a bit bigger (granted, f/1.2 vs f/1.4)….but maybe not as much as it first appeared....

    I was surprised to see that Canon started its mirrorless range with lenses that big too. I'm curious to see if they bring more compact alternatives later. They would interest me more than a 28-70 f/2.
