Just received my EF 24-105 f/3.5-5.6 IS STM today (ordered through Canon Price Watch's "Street Price" program and received an unopened, Canon USA warrantied product for $400 shipped - http://www.canonpricewatch.com/product/05539/Canon-EF-24-105mm-f3.5-5.6-IS-STM-price.html) and I tested the AF sound on my 5D Mark IV in OVF, live view, and video, and it's silent - like the EF-S zoom lenses with STM are. It does NOT make the buzzy sound that the EF 40mm f/2.8 pancake and EF 50mm f/1.8 STM make.
So, if anyone is like me and looking for a zoom lens for video use on their 5D Mark IV and they want to utilize autofocus and not worry about a buzzing noise, this is the lens to get - and at $200 off MAP, it's a great deal, IMO. Oh... it obviously focuses smoothly too. I know that's obvious, but I wanted to state it just in case someone doesn't know.
Hope this helps! Any questions, feel free to ask!
that sounds like an odd f stop compared to f4.0 USM i have i think the new f4.0 II would be real interesting to see. if the new f4.0 II is anything like 24-70 f2.8 II IQ, it would be hard to resist not getting it. i usually buy my lenses because of IQ when i have the fund available, not because of "good deal" but YMMD.
