I love 10x zooms for what they can do even with the limitation they come with.  However, I also love my other lens for what they can do as well.    You need the right tool for the right job.  Good tools cost good money.

Have the RF 24-240mm and I still have my EF-S 18-200mm and my Tamron 18-400 as well. They are all useful.

I have sold off some my previous 10X zooms such my EF 35-350mm f/3.5-5.6 L USM.  If you want talk about being expensive that lens was a $1495 twenty years ago when that money was worth more than now.

I bought all the 10X zooms loving them when new but technology continues to improve the lens and the images they make.

The RF 24-240mm 10x zoom is simply the best such 10X zoom of those I have owned and it appears very competitive with the Sony and other similar zooms.  I paid more money for a couple of those early 10x zooms too.
