Currently shooting with a Canon RP using it solely for portraits. Studio, outdoor, etc.

Current lens line up: Canon rf 85 f/2 Canon rf 35 f/1.8 Canon rf 16 f/2.8

Looking into getting a lens for $1500 or less. What would you all recommend?

What don't your current lenses do for you?

In general, you're not covered at the telephoto end of things.  But would you benefit from telephoto lenses?  Do answer kvbarkley's question.

Having said that, my personal favorite lens for portraits is the EF 135mm f/2.  One of the first lenses I'll be picking up when I move to the R-Series cameras is the RF 135mm f/1.8.  That's above your budget though.

I would consider a zoom unless you like zooming with your feet!
