Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6L IS USM is a compact weather sealed L quality lens that operates very well with R5 as part of a compact travel kit. It's very short length similar to the RF 24-105mmf4 L IS in length make them both easy fit in my bag upright rather than laying down like large lenses require. The render, bokeh and sharpness when shooting wide open are equally excellent throughout the complete zoom range. The corners and edges are moderately sharp and improve with when reducing aperture one stop. This is not large aperture lens like a f2 or f2.8 but it is very sharp even wide open at f4 at 70mm and f5.6 at 300mm as well as everywhere in between.

I concur one of canons best lens.
