Our take on the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM Lens

The Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM is the standard zoom many full-frame Canon DSLR owners keep on the camera. It covers wide angle to short telephoto with a constant f/4 aperture, image stabilization and L-series weather sealing. At $395 at Acme Camera Co. as of November 3, 2026, it sits near the low end of its recent range, well under what it cost new at launch.

Questions and answers

Is the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM worth it at $395?
Yes, if you shoot a full-frame EF-mount Canon and want one sealed lens for most situations. At $395 at Acme Camera Co. as of November 3, 2026, it is a low-cost way into L-series glass.
Does it work on mirrorless Canon bodies?
It mounts on Canon RF bodies with an EF-EOS R adapter, and autofocus and stabilization work through the adapter. On APS-C bodies it behaves like a 38-168mm lens.
How good is the image stabilization?
The IS compensates for roughly three stops of shake, which helps handheld shots at 105mm and in dim light. It is the older generation of IS, not the 4-stop system in later lenses.
What is in the box?
The lens comes with front and rear caps and a petal lens hood. A UV filter is sometimes bundled by sellers, so check the listing before buying.
Is it sharper than the 24-70mm f/2.8L?
The 24-70mm f/2.8L is sharper and faster, but it costs more and stops at 70mm. The 24-105mm trades some speed and edge sharpness for reach and a lower price.
When is it cheapest?
Prices on this lens move with used and refurbished supply, and it has been discounted around major sales events. At $395 it is already near the bottom of its recent range.
Where is the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM Lens cheapest?
At Acme Camera Co., for $395.00, 60% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
