Hi Remon550 what lens are you using some lenses are variable aperture ie RF 24-105mm F/4.0-7.1 IS STM lens. As you zoom in the maximum aperture of the lens decreases. Variable aperture lenses are cheaper to make then constant aperture zoom lenses. For ex. RF 15-35mm F/2.8L IS USM which is more expensive due to the wider aperture.
