Judging by the dpreview samples, the RF 24-50 is absolutely worthless, I'd rather buy a cheaper body and some better lenses. What's the point of using a fullframe body with a cr@p lens?

Hyperbole like yours makes me want to purchase it, chances are that it is less compromized than 24-105 stm.

Just saw the dpreview samples with the R8, it could work for day time travel photography. It was a quick look using my cell but is the IQ from this lens really any worse than the IQ from other similar entry level kit lenses?

I saw those 24-50mm samples on my 27" monitor and they look bad, there is one picture of a couple walking to the camera that seems to be out of focus, so I don't know if it is the user's error or the lens is really that unsharp.

That picture is apparently motion blur affected.

aka- we shouldn't be so harsh on the lens just yet -- need production lenses, proper settings and shooting raw
