RF 24-240 compatibility with EOS R7

[MrWalleye73]

Good Morning,

Yes I am embracing digital cameras and loving it. I made my choice and got an R7. I know I have a lot of EF glass, but one RF lens that intrigues me is the 24-240. Seems to be a really decent lens from what I've read thus far. And that range would make a really nice option to pack light for Europe. As I am new to allof this mostly, the lens should work fine on the R7, yes? I've only seen reviews using on R5's/ FF cameras. 

Thanks all! Stay cool this weekend!

Thanks I appreciate that info! Great camera you have there. It was my very close second choice for sure!

Well, me being me, I picked up one new lens, or soon to be here. I like the idea of the Sigma 17-50 RF lens. It fills a nice range, lighweight/compact enough, and the f 2.8 is really nice. Seen some decent reviews too. Should pair nicely with the R7 I would think. More to come.....Camera is very nice so far....still learning functions and whatnot. Take it for a full shakedown on the July 4 weekend. Next is to pick and learn an editing software.

Mr.Walleye73,

I had a Sigma 16-300mm and a Sigma 18-50mm and was very happy with both lenses. I thought that the 18-50mm did a good job in low light situations. Sold the 18-50mm with my R10 and in the process of selling the Sigma 16-300mm lens. I was happy with both lens.

[MrWalleye73]

Thanks for that info too. Did you replace the R10?

Thanks.  Noticed it this morning on the Canon website and I’ll definitely give it a whirl. 
Appreciate it!

Mr.Walleye,

Purchased a R6 M2 and then ordered a RF24-240mm lens. When I doing my research on buying a new camera in the Spring I narrowed my search to the R10 and R6M2. Purchased the R10 because of cost and my concern about learning a new technology. Several months later I decided I wanted to go to a full frame camera and have some additional options on lenses.

As I tell people I am spending my children's inheritance.

Nice camera, really packs it all in and rated highly by just about everyone....I looked at it but made my choice. Always difficult when you can only buy one. I got the 24-240 also. Works nice with the APS-C and in camera corrections. So far it I like it. It will be my travel lens with a faster, smaller lens for indoors, darker etc. 

Yes spend their inheritance and remind them every time you take their picture and ask them to smile....😉

Mr. Walleye,

I agree about the inheritance.LOL! Enjoy your camera and lenses.

How do you like the R6 Mii? My Refurbished R7 didn't last. Trying to get another is not working so well. Was offered an R6 Mii in exchange for a difference in cost. I'll see what happens with the R7. I know the R6 is FF, but you went from R10 to R6. Like it better?

Thanks!!
