This is by far Canons worst RF L lens (based on the one I have, but its approximately 1/2 the cost of most other RF L lenses and suffer also most as much as the RF 600/800 non-L lenses, uncorrected, from such distortions). I think the older EF 24-135 has better performance out of the box.

Whilst you can correct it with careful exposure control or post processing the raw images, without these correction, suffer highly from several distortions - I have it but stopped using it after I purchased the L trio (RF 15-35 L, 24-70 L. & 70-200 L) which suffer much less from such . Mine pocket now suffers instead (their all at least twice the price of the 24-105). The downside is their weight and 3 replacing 1 lens.
