普段はRF24-70が標準になっていますが、
先日、荷物を軽くしたかったので、このレンズを持ち出しました。
いい色で綺麗な孫の写真が撮れました。
携帯カメラでは、決して撮れない品質の写真でした。
さすが L を付けているレンズだと、改めて実感致しました。
旅行などの遠出に持って行くには、最良のレンズの1本だと感じました。

En combinación con la R7 que tiene doble ranura de memoria, se obtiene un equipo todo terreno, yo lo uso para eventos socialers.

This was my most expensive purchase on Amazon and it was worth it. Purchased new at a great price and fast delivery. Lens is super sharp, it just comes down to the photographer behind the camera.

Great lens. I am a Professional Photojournalist with a local 3 county newspaper. Even though it isn’t an f/2.8, it’ll work for my needs. (I already have the RF 24-70mm f/2.8) I plan on using this lens for bright outdoor events and inside events with a flash where I need just a bit more reach than the 24-70. I like that it is lighter, yet has 35mm more reach in locations I work in, this should “almost” replace my 24-70 as my go-to lens. As any RF lens, it is wicked sharp and fast on the focusing and accuracy. Another RF L lens for my growing arsenal of lenses.

If this lens was under £1000 I would probably give it 5 stars. I’m just not impressed with the image quality compared to much cheaper options I’ve used in similar focal ranges.
When I bought my R6 I had the choice of getting a converter and an older EF series lens or getting a new RF lens. I wish I chose the converter with an older lens. I’ve had Tamrons under £600 produce better images than this.
Pros:
– Great build quality
– Great image stabilization
Cons:
– Not great sharpness for the price
– Some focus breathing in my R6
– Overpriced

This lens is incredibly sharp all through the range, image quality is amazing. I started building my Canon RF kit with primes and the 70-200mm, all good decisions and great lenses. Doing it again, though, I would have started with this one.

The RF 24-105 F4 L is a good lens. Like all of the new RF lenses, the RF 24-105 F4 L gets high marks for aesthetics. It looks great. And it feels solid and smooth in use. The tapered zoom ring makes it easy to find by feel. The customizable control ring makes it easy to control a setting of your choice. (I find it useful as a quick way to adjust white balance when shooting video. I have it set to control other things when shooting stills.) Auto focus is fast and relatively silent. No complaints at all.
In terms of image quality, the RF 24-105 F4 L is arguably the best zoom available with this zoom range. The Sony 24-105 F4 is close and may be better in some respects. The Nikon F-mount equivalent is not close though there is a Z-mount 24-105 on Nikon’s roadmap that is likely to be very good when it is eventually released.
That said, the RF 24-105 F4 L is not perfect. It is consistently sharp in the center across its zoom range. It is noticeably less so in the corners. This comes with the territory when designing a 24-105 lens so it is hard to complain too much. The RF is at least as good, if not better, than the competition in this respect. Bokeh is decent. No complaints there either. The one characteristic that I find unacceptable is longitudinal chromatic aberration. (To be clear, this is not the easy-to-correct lateral CA that is often seen around tree branches in the corner of images.) It is most visible toward the long end of the zoom range. I’ve never shot with a lens before where LoCA was noticeable enough to be objectionable but it can be with this lens. Photograph white text on a black background at 105mm and expect to see purple bokeh in one direction and amber bokeh in the other. It is hard to believe that Canon considers this acceptable but two separately sourced copies of the lens exhibited the same issue. (To my surprise, Canon’s higher end RF 24-70 F2.8 L seems to have the same problem.) Fortunately, high contrast black and white images shot at 105mm are a worst case scenario. In most shooting situations, LoCA is not a noticeable problem.
What is a problem is buying photo gear from Amazon. I feel compelled to record unboxings for *every* Amazon order that includes an expensive camera body or lens. I do this because it seems like every year there is a story about someone ordering high-end camera gear from Amazon and finding a brick inside the box instead of a body or lens. To be fair, I’ve never had this problem personally, but I did experience something almost as bad with the RF 24-105. In what marks a new low in shipping standards, Amazon shipped my RF 24-105 to me in an unpadded envelope. Three of the manufacturer box’s corners were bashed in. It had clearly been dropped at least twice. I love Amazon in general but order your cameras and lenses from a company that knows the proper way to package them.
The bottom line is that the RF 24-105 is a good lens that I do recommend but it falls just a little short of the image quality I’m getting from my other RF L-Series zooms. Overall, Canon is to be commended for their lightweight F4 L series of lenses that combine a relatively small, lightweight form factor with high IQ. For whatever reason, other manufacturers (some more than others) seem unwilling or unable to maintain a commitment to top quality optics in a zoom that isn’t F2.8. This characteristic of the Canon lens system—both EF and now RF—is a solid reason to go with Canon’s new mirrorless R system over another brand.

I was searching for this lens in Georgia, Atlanta—most of the area. I didn’t find this lens. Then I decided to order from Amazon, and it was so fast. I got that lens the next day to my doorstep, and now I’m enjoying my photography. Some photos from the lens

I come from a Canon Family. I was raised with the A1 from my mother. Twenty years ago I switched to Nikon. My dream to abandon crop sensors became an urge. Two months ago my mom came into my thoughts and melancholy made me close the circle and return to Canon. Too fast too good; one month ago I moved to full frame. The EOS R8 picked me and I needed a lens to travel to Chile next week. After many options, this lens showed up. This lens will walk with you without needing to be replaced. You can’t go wrong. Ideal for portrait and one-lens travel.

With an upcoming trip to Yellowstone National Park, I reached out to a friend who’s a full time photographer to help me (an aspiring hobbyist photographer) pick out a diverse lens that would do Yellowstone justice. Without hesitation she recommended the Canon RF 24 – 105mm as a excellent “workhorse” lens.
Delivery/Packaging: The delivery and packaging was excellent, safe, and was shipped with care. We received it promptly and were able to get it all ready prior to our trip.
Quality: As with all Canon products we’ve ordered, the quality is top notch. The lens is heavy enough to be “felt” in the right way, and came with a nice protective cover which we used when traveling.
Use: We found the lens to effectively fit our needs in Yellowstone, looking at far off mountains and waterfalls and then up close and personals with Bison grazing with their young. The features and zoom worked excellent, and we’re thrilled to develop our pictures to remember our amazing trip.
Overall, I’d HIGHLY recommend this lens. In fact, when buying the Canon RB camera, we selected ONLY the body and went with this lens as the stock lens that comes with these cameras can’t stand next to this! Excellent buy.
