Fly in the ointment: both the Canon RF 15-35mm f/2.8L and Canon RF 24-70mm f/2.8L have problems with optical swing (a form of lens skew) at the telephoto end. The 24-70 is particularly troubled. See reader comment below.

I had an early copy of the Canon RF 70-200 f/2.8, and poor sharpness on the left side at infinity made it unusable for landscape, even stopped down. I sent it to Canon for repair, and they said nothing was wrong with it. They adjusted it anyway, and it came back a little better, but still not acceptable.
The Canon RF 15-35 f/2.8 I had didn’t have the same swing issue at 35mm, but of course the performance of that lens at 35mm is piss-poor anyway. My RF 100-500 is perfect at the long end at infinity, as have been the L and non-L RF 24-105 lenses I have tried.
DIGLLOYD: every zoom lens can have its own variations.
