Great value. I’ve had the 24-105 stm for 3 months now. It always ends up in my backpack when I go on nature walks. I use it on a canon RP. I’ve only used it in the daytime. It feels light and compact for a full frame zoom lens.
Knowing this is an entry level/ kit lens, it's very good. Mine is relatively sharp (I also have the f4 version, and an rf70-200f4, and my copy does decently vs those) throughout the range, and other than the slower aperture at the long end, it's a great all arounder that's got a decent range, good optics, and isn't expensive.
Plus it close focuses well, has some macro features, and the IS is better than I expected for an inexpensive lens (this is mainly on an rp). It's a decent complimentary lens to a set of primes, also.
I bought this with the R6. It's not an awful lens but doesn't have any wow to it like a prime lens does. I prefer the 50mm so much more. I honestly should have used this money towards the 85mm.
Wonderful sharpness and range; lightweight, stabilization works great

I received this as a part of the RP kit, which I would recommend. The lens is a no brainer for travel or outdoor photography. It's so light and pairs very well on the lightweight RP. Sharpness is great throughout the range, and is superb from about 35mm to 105mm. Heavy distortion and vignette at 24mm, which is corrected by software or internally, which leads to smearing of the edges and corners (center remains great). But these issues quickly disappear when zooming to about 28mm.
