I got sick of futzing with the RF rear lens caps in dark photo pits where I need to swap lenses quickly so I came up with this solution. The white area lines up with the contacts which are infinitely easier to see from the top in any situation instead of the dark red dot on the side and black on black line. I can’t believe no one has made a better one yet (even a 3d printed one?)

I was thinking of just finding some that slip on but don't twist. I had some on my Nikon kit and they were so much easier. I should try some like that made for EF.

The 24-105 2.8 + 100-300 2.8 replaces a lot of lenses for sports/photojournalist folks and probably comes out about equal in price and weight. Absolutely worth it for them though.

Also crazy how the 24-105 2.8 is even better than the 24-70 at all ranges and wide open, about equal to the jump from the f/4 to the 2.8 at equivalent aperture/zoom.

Yeah for night shots and concerts/some specific sporting events it would immediately be the best lens ever made on the wide end (assuming typical L line quality)

Would be an incredible video lens for the C70 too.

Very cool lineup for the R7 though and the crop line was what was lacking the most for Canon mirrorless. Eager to see what else follows for full frame.
