Canon users -are RF lenses worth the premium for hobbyists?

The 50/1.8 is purely a question of volume as far as I'm concerned... The adaptor basically doubles the bulk of the lens assembly.

I suppose that makes for easier handling if I have large, clumsy hands (which I do).

Just reviving this thread to ask for some feedback on two lenses. What is your views on the following options for a Canon R7?

The Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM vs the Canon RF 50mm f/1.8 STM

and

The Canon EF-S 10-18mm f4.5-5.6 IS STM vs the Canon RF-S 10-18mm f4.5-6.3 STM Lens?

Same as I wrote in my first answer, small light lenses attached to a large heavy adaptor feel awful to me.

It’s a personal choice, but can you use the camera size site to view them side by side?

For me, I’d definitely go for the rf

I wouldn't say the adapter is large and heavy but I see the point - both work well, so if you already have the EF one and you like the size keep it, if you want small go RF.
