What is the best all-around lens for the Canon EOS R5? I have been shooting professionally for years but I just made the jump to mirrorless and the weight/balance on this body is throwing me off. I have a destination shoot in the UK starting in ten days and my old EF 24-70 with the adapter feels way too front-heavy for 10-hour days.
I need one native RF lens that can do it all. Budget is around $2,300. Is the RF 24-105mm f/4L sharp enough for the 45MP sensor or am I gonna regret not having that f/2.8 speed for indoor shots? I dont want to carry a bag of primes...
Honestly, you are gonna love the R5!! For a trip like that where you are walking all day, just go for the Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM. It is seriously amazing and way lighter than your old setup! I was worried about the f/4 too but the IBIS on the R5 is basically magic... you can shoot handheld at crazy slow speeds and still get super sharp shots. Plus that extra reach is a total lifesaver when you cant move closer. Its such a safer bet for a busy shoot than lugging around the heavy 2.8! Quick tip: make sure you enable the lens electronic MF setting so you can override the focus manually if needed. You wont regret it, the sharpness is fantastic even on that 45mp sensor!
