What is the best all-around lens for the Canon EOS R5 because Im honestly so done with my current kit lens, it cant even focus properly half the time! Im super excited to actually get some sharp shots for my upcoming trip to Seattle next month. Budget is around 2k, any ideas?
Honestly, ditching the kit lens is the best move you can make for an R5. For Seattle, you need something versatile that handles the gray light well. My top pick is the Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L IS USM. It is pricey, but it is basically the gold standard for a reason. You get tack-sharp images and that constant aperture is a lifesaver in low light. If that is too much, look at the Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM. It is significantly cheaper, has more reach, and the image stabilization is brilliant for handheld shots. TL;DR: Grab the 24-70mm if you want pro-tier sharpness, or save some cash with the 24-105mm. Either way, you are gonna see a massive jump in quality over that kit glass. Have a blast in Seattle!
