Prized for its versatility, the RF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM from Canon is a wide-angle to short telephoto zoom characterized by its constant f/4 maximum aperture. Ideal for use in nearly any shooting scenario, this zoom is benefitted by a five-stop-effective Image Stabilizer to minimize the appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld imagery. Also complementing handling is a unique customizable Control Ring, which can be configured to adjust a variety of exposure settings settings, including aperture, ISO, and exposure compensation. Benefitting image quality, the advanced optical design features a Super Spectra Coating, which helps to suppress ghosting and flare in order to improve contrast and color accuracy when working in bright and backlit conditions. Ideal for both photo and video applications, this lens also incorporates a Nano USM autofocus motor, which delivers quick, quiet, and precise focusing performance.

Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM Reviews
Worth every penny
This is more than a kit lens. It is sharp and versatile, with good color. It is easy to travel with, and affords a lot of flexibility. Yes, at times I wish I had the 24-70 f/2.8, but given the difference in price (and the extra half pound in weight for the 24-70) I am very happy with the lens. It has the ability to make some memorable images. Fabulous walk-around lens! It doesn't disappoint.
Fantastic
great lens so far, works great with my R7, even in low light
great versatile lenses!
I love this lenses. it is a great travel lenses. very versatile, but with no compromise in quality and speed. autofocus is lightning fast. it is sharp, renders very nicely and not on the heavy side. great for portrait, closeup, landscape and all general use. it is even not as pricey for what you get. so very recommended!
Well worth the $$
I had just replaced my Canon 70D with a Mirrorless R camera, and wanted a walk-a-round less that took best advantage of the full frame capability of the R. I was not at all disappointed! The lens is a bit narrower than the 18-135 it was replacing, but I haven't even noticed a difference in everyday use. The images it produces are very sharp and full of color. The body of the lens is exceptionally robust and the extension/retraction of the barrel is firm and smooth. Focusing is very quick and quiet. I've yet to run into an everyday situation where I don't have enough reach, or can focus on relatively close objects, so I'm very happy with my decision and don't regret the expense at all.
Can't Call This A Kit Lens!
When I bought my first full-framed Canon 5Diii, I purchased a refurbished Canon EF 24-105mm f/4, and it served me well as a favorite go to and my first red ring lens. I went through the generations of 1DX cameras using the EF 24-105mm, even to the newly purchased Canon R3s Well, I sold that lens to buy the RF version of the 24-105mm, and glad I did. Though, still an f/4, the lower ISO noise from the R3s makes for a more perfect match, especially for my sports photography for both indoors and out. While the zoom twist is a bit stiffer, at least the barrel stays in place, when in active use, though a lock switch is available. I have set the Control Ring to make quick adjustments to ISO when I shoot in Manual. This RF lens does carry a stiffer price, than when first introduced. My only regret was not to have purchased it sooner. Highly recommended for all Canon camera bags.
Love the range
Haven't really tested the sharpness.
RF 24-105 f4 L IS
Perfect for my needs. Good range for a walkaround lens. Sometimes I just want a camera and a lens and leave all the other stuff at home. This fills that need on either my R6 or R5. Makes a nice travel lens if you aren't planning on shooting a lot of wildlife.
Excellent
Smaller, lighter and sharper than the EF.
