BTW, the R bodies can do Distortion correction ONLY with RF lenses, but CA and Peripheral can be done in video for others brands lenses as long as those have the built-in data.

My EOS R definitely does distortion correction with my original model EF 24-105mm and I've never loaded a lens profile into a camera in my life.

Connect your R to a laptop and use the Eos lens registration tool, You'll see that many EF lenses are already loaded (in camera firmware) especially the newer lenses are.

Most (if not all) Canon EF lenses don't have communication options like the native RF lenses. So EF lenses will depend on the in camera available profiles.

RF lenses do have their own (in lens firmware) profile and will communicate their profile to a Eos R series camera.

Thanks, but it's academic for me as I shoot RAW, so it wouldn't be worth the hassle.
