SUMMARY
Anthony Gugliotta used the Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM lens extensively during a trip through Italy, capturing over 2,000 photos. He found the f/4 aperture sufficient for well-lit travel scenarios, especially when stopping down for depth of field in landscapes and architecture. While the lens's compact size and weight were advantageous for travel, Gugliotta noted limitations in reach at 105mm for certain shots and missed faster lenses for specific situations. He also used a Canon PowerShot V1 for vlogging and b-roll during the trip.
TAKEAWAYS
The Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L lens was tested for its viability as a primary travel lens.
Its f/4 aperture proved adequate for most daytime travel photography, complemented by a variable ND filter.
Limitations were encountered at the 105mm end for shots requiring more reach.
The lens's lighter weight and smaller size are significant advantages for travel compared to faster zooms.
