I realize this is 2 years old, but it is still very relevant. The RP is still offered with and without the RF 24-105mm f4-f7.1. I was hesitating but at only $250 US more roughly for the model with the lens, it seems like a no brainer after having watched this video. Thank you very much! By the way, your English is very good and quite clear.

[@lsamoa]

That's the best comparison I've seen of these two lenses. Very useful, thank you!

[@RobertoM892]

My R6 came with the 24-105 kit lens and I loved it. I travel a lot and do lots of landscapes photography, always though making the big jump to an L-series was going to be day and night difference.......I just realize it is not!! ;/ at least for what I use my camera for. I recently order a 24-70 f2 and after running multiples shot comparisons I can't justify $2,500 comparing it against my kit lens image quality. While watching this vid Im still trying to convince myself not to return it but its going back..... :(

[@baden009]

24-105 f4-7.1 has macro photography so focus distance will be very small

[@carldaniel3155]

Great video, thank you. I have the 24-105 f4-7.1 lens and really love it.... but for portraits 105mm + f7.1 is not so good!!!! But I do get a much lighter, smaller, cheaper and better macro lens. I pair this with the RF 50 f1.8 - that way I get the best of both worlds. A great light travel lens (24-105 f4-7.1) with a fantastic bokeh/portrait/street lens (50 f1.8).

[@heinricheugenvonhelmbrecht6905]

Thank you! The best lens review I have ever seen! Lookl like the smallone still can be a good companion in my backpacking trips where is every gram is countable.

[@danielphilo]

Very objective and detailed comparison. Answered nicely the question we all make to ourselves: is the f4 worth the extra buck?

[@priscillayg]

This is a helpful in-depth comparison, thank you! I plan on picking up the f4 as my first L series lens. It seems like a great all purpose lens and I like that it’s weather sealed.

[@dahebable]

My EOS RP came with the 24-105 kit lens. I bought the camera a few weeks after launch. At that time the kit lens was the RF24-105 f4L. The STM lens did not exist at that time.

[@MWDAdventures]

if you are using this for video will it make a difference.

[@erickventura4237]

One thing to note, zoomed out, the range of focus for the kit lense is insanly small, its a macro shot for sure. I kidd you not you can almost touch something with the glass and itll be sharp.

[@islomtolipovR6]

i really needed this video thank you

[@timog7358]

for me the sample images from the L lens spark more joy. some silkyness / quality to the images

[@pranavcapturescoimbatore]

24-105 Stm Kit lens is better for traditional videography of wedding videos?

[@OmaGhomrawi]

I recommend the F4

[@pranavcapturescoimbatore]

@@OmaGhomrawi ok thanks you

[@jakr1880]

Excellent, very fair review. I have both lenses. Yes, the f4 is better, but my copy of the f7.1 must be exceptional, as it's pretty sharp everywhere in the range ( unsceintific comparisons of the same objects photogphed with both lenses on an rp). And in daylight or bright light for casual photography, I'll take the slower lens, as it's easier to carry. Indoors and/ or for more 'serious' photography, I'll bring the f4. But none of the L glass I have is as good as my equivalent m43 pro lenses, in my findings.

[@PunjabiGymBeats]

Which one do you reccon for wedding photography.?

[@OmaGhomrawi]

24-105 f4 as you need more light indoors

[@aranzadelgado9235]

Both are excellent and I’m got the kit lens, which I know I can do amazing photos and video with and the L series will be far far in future lol

[@mmills321]

looks like you shot everything at 24mm there both same f stop at that point lol

[@starblazer32]

Thanks for the video and such a great review. Really appreciate it

[@OmaGhomrawi]

Glad you found it helpful

[@lawrencechen6696]

Great review! Does any distortion or vignetting exist in video mode when using the kit lens?

[@OmaGhomrawi]

No, because the auto correction is turned on by default.

[@darii4572]

So for portraits the 24-105mm f4 is better? I see it as a big investment for the future so I don't have to change after a year. Or is there anyone who would recommend me 1-2 best portrait lenses? I can't decide😄

[@OmaGhomrawi]

Better to get such as 35, and 85mm f1.8 lenses for portrait. with f1.8 lenses you will get more blurry backgrounds.

[@darii4572]

@@OmaGhomrawi thank you a lot!

[@bartjnatoli]

What if I wanted to do portraits and real estate photography? The salesman at the store told me the 7.1 would be able to both but that seems to be conflicting what I'm seeing out there. Thanks! Great review

[@aliyah4442]

Such a great video Thankyou!

[@chiefbubba2581]

don't have a full frame camera i have a crop sensor camera the canon 80d i guess when the prices goes down I'll buy me a full frame camera but for right now i only have the 80d and i want a good lens that can do everything with. I want a few pointers. I want to know how good this lens is and would it fits my canon 80d

[@OmaGhomrawi]

Both lenses are made with RF Mount for mirrorless camera. Which means does not work on your DSLR. Look for an EF Mount

[@chiefbubba2581]

@@OmaGhomrawi yeah i know that but that's what i was saying was can i use these lens on my canon 80d? So what would be some good lens to buy

[@ChargedPulsar]

This is a useful review, thank you.

[@OmaGhomrawi]

Do you own any of these lenses ?

[@marcbuledi7417]

yess you just made mer decide the kit lens

Mister oma. Good review

[@OmaGhomrawi]

Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it

[@kumpigina6968]

thx.. so helpful

[@wallyflicks]

Do these lens work for my mirrorless camera r50?

[@truthseeker6804]

get rfs 18-150

[@rangstudio5656]

Thankyou sir.

[@2323natan]

Discordo de você, essa lente 24-105 f4 - 7.1 pode ser usada para fazer um evento inteiro. Basta usar o range entre 24mm f4 e 35mm f4.5 que será possível fazer 95% das fotografias de um evento. Mas é necessário aplicar a técnica correta.

[@RideWithSiddd]

WICH ONE BEST PLS ANSWER ME

[@michielw.8101]

Bang for your buck = f4-f7.1, f4l is just better but you have to use your camera daily in order to really justify it or for special conditions (shooting in extreme weather conditions etc.) So overal the che😊aper one is better (value per dollar wise)

[@michaelmichael7958]

The expensive F4 is much clearer crisp

[@TUANNGUYEN...]

Good🎉

[@LuxLadyStudio]

Actually cheap 24-105 L IS, is also a cheap kit lens xd

[@TheJulianxP]

Is it possible to speak a little clearer?

Ew. Stop that. If you can’t understand someone, just put on closed captions.

[@MrDvaz]

I wish I could understand what you are saying!!!!!

[@HilleCine]

Native speaker here, I had no problem easy to understand. If you are not however, I could understand as English is not so easy. Best of luck with the study.

[@LabellePatrice]

You can always put the closed captions on

Look up reviews in your own accent, dialect or language;) this guy is doing a great job and I have no problem understanding him!
