George –
Fast focus and exceptional clarity. All of the Canon RF lenses I have purchased are terrific. Even the less expensive 24 to 240. The big advantage of the 135mm is its f1.8 aperture. I use it mostly for photographing grandkids in sporting events and for portraits. It freezes action and isolates faces and objects better than any other lens I have used. If you need more versatility, I’ve found you don’t give up clarity with the RF zooms. I also use the 100 – 500 and get remarkably clear shots but it is a slower lens. I tried buying a used 135 f2 EF lens but it was not as crisp and missed the focus when tracking more than the RF lens. I have used Canon cameras since digital photography first developed in the late 90s. Each new generation provided clear incremental improvements. I highly recommend the RFs as state of the art.
