Canon RF 70-200 2.8 vs RF 70-200 f4 Portrait Comparison (Free RAW Files)

A 70-200 lens is not only a staple in any portrait photographers kit, but also one of the more expensive lens purchases you may have to make. In this video I compare the RF 70-200 2.8 lens to the cheaper, lighter weight RF 70-200 f4 lens. I wanted to know just how big the difference in maximum aperture makes to photos throughout the zoom range, as well as in some real life scenarios.
