Hello everyone,
I'm new and hope I'm posting this in the correct place 🙂
I took some pictures today with my RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM lens on an EOS RP. It worked fine, but all of a sudden now, in the rage of 24-50mm or so, the left side of the view field is blurred. I can't focus in that area, and all pictures I take come out blurred (on that side) - see attached image.
What happened? Can this be fixed?
Thank you already!

I inspected the back side of it closer, and it turned out that one of the screws was loose. So I just tightened it and the issue went away.

Glad it was an easy user fix. And I hope this was a one off QC issue because that screw was likely loose from the moment it came off the line and finally loosened enough to create an optical issue.
Sounds like the hot shoe installation guy got promoted from the camera body to the lens assembly line 😂

"So I just tightened it and the issue went away."
I would certainly be skeptical about that being the cause. Hope it is for your sake but don't be surprised if the condition returns.
