Canon RF 24-105 STM kit lens review
If you don’t like technical reviews, you have come to the right place! Here you can find real photos taken with the gear reviewed. You know, not those ugly photos of color charts that don’t tell me anything on how the gear performs in real setting.
If you mostly take photos outdoor, this kit lens might be totally adequate for your needs. When I got this kit lens my intention was only to test it then resell it, since it costed ridiculously little compared to getting the body only Canon RP. It totally exceeded my expectation and it’s so good that I don’t see the point of spending thousands of euros to get a better zoom lens, especially if weight is a concern. If you are on a budget, I would suggest getting a prime lens for indoor and use this kit lens for outdoor.
Here are some photos taken with the Canon RP and the RF 24-105 STM lens:

On1 Photo Raw review
I was looking for an alternative for Lightroom and by pure coincidence, I found On1 Photo Raw. I couldn’t open .CR3 files in Lightroom on my phone and On1 Photo Raw was the only app that could open the photos and import them into Lightroom, that’s how I discovered this application.
I do lots of selective editing and On1 Photo Raw is very good at masking. The only things I miss from Lightroom are the texture slider and the color grading wheels. On1 Photo Raw is a little bit slow but it’s something that I can live with. When it gets too slow, you just have to restart the application so that the cache gets emptied.
Do I suggest On1 Photo Raw as a Lightroom replacement? Yes, I do, especially if budget is a concern. You can’t beat the price for what it offers. If you are interested in trying it, they offer a 14-day free trial period and even after the trial, you still have another 30 days full refund period to try out the application. If you decide to purchase it, you can use the coupon code STORYTELLING to get 20% off.
