Canon RF 24–105mm F2.8 L is USM Z Standard Zoom Lens, Full-Frame Mirrorless, Image Stabilization, Close Focusing, Ideal for Events, Portraits, Studio, and Video, Black

Lens was purchased as a replacement for my EF 24-70 II f/2.8. I use this lens with the EOS R5 camera mostly for plays, musical productions and other low light, indoor events. The lens is very sharp and focus is almost instantaneous, the extra reach compared to the EF 24-70 is very much appreciated- I don't have to switch lenses as often as I did in the past. The lens is fairly heavy but not overly so and for me, it has not been an issue. I don't currently do videography but it's nice to know if/when I do, I have a good combo of camera body and lens to start correctly. Due to the high cost, I sat on the fence for quite some time before I finally decided to purchase this lens. Hindsight being 20/20, my only regret is that I didn't buy it sooner!

The quality of my pictures is fabulous. I am using this lens with a Canon R6 Mark II. It is a heavy lens but well balanced.

If there was a lens that could do it all- The Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 has completely streamlined my workflow—replacing three lenses and becoming a staple for my studio, portrait, wedding, and event work. ✔ Versatile Zoom Range – Covers everything from tight portraits to wide event shots. ✔ Constant f/2.8 Aperture – Great for low light, smooth bokeh, and subject isolation. ✔ Tack-Sharp & Fast AF – Crisp details with quick, silent autofocus. ✔ Pro Build Quality – Durable, weather-sealed, and built to last. This lens is worth every penny for professionals who need reliability, flexibility, and top-tier image quality in one package. Highly recommend!

This great Canon lens replaces four to five prime lenses! It performs admirably! I have used it for weddings and events and left my camera with all the primes behind. Sure it is heavy, slightly heavier than a 70-200mm f 2.4, but with a monopod it is usable. It also makes an excellent video lens.

It's big. It's heavy. It's expensive. It totally ROCKS! I'd had the 24-105 f4 for years. Both in the DSLR version and now the Mirrorless. The old 21-105 was small. It is lightweight. It was inexpensive. It served the purpose. After much hemming and hawing, I decided to splurge on this lens. OMG - I'm in LOVE! It's fast and feels good in my hands, although still heavy. But I am used to hauling around the 70-200 2.8, which is comparable in size and weight. It's so sharp and quick to focus. That single f/stop of exposure is so worth it. Even though that one stop increase was about $2,000, I still find it worth it. I have been a professional photographer for 40 years, so I have been through my share of lenses - from the film days to the mirrorless days. This may be my favorite lens of all time.

Great for run-and-gun productions! Excellent stabilization and smooth zoom. A bit heavy, but worth it.

This lens lives on my Canon C400. I mainly use it for event videography. It’s good for photography as well but not my go to. The best feature is its focal range with the ability to open up to a 2.8 aperture, making it ideal for a low light situation. I’ve used it to film weddings, interviews, documentaries, and athletics. In some cases I have noticed slight vignetting on the edges when I’m at 24mm on my full frame Canon C400 but that is easily fixed in post.

This thing is a beast. It has taken fantastic pictures so far

Yes, this lens is on the heavy side and is a lil pricey for most; that being said…what they packed into this lens makes it an absolute game changer…and totally worth every pound and penny! Goodbye frequent lens swaps; being able to reach out to 105mm, makes this lens the ultimate photojournalism/event lens. Oh! Did I mention it has SUPERB video features/quality? I’m in absolute love with this lens, you will be too. Don’t hesitate, get this lens.
