Linear STM in RF24-105STM and 15-30 is decent, but with STM you lose mechanical full time AF if you use AF-S/One shot.They say that like it’s a good thing.

Same thought here.What's eye-opening is the rumored price of $2300, given that the EF 11-24/4 lists for $3000.
Personally, I don't (yet) see anything to tempt me ...
AFAIK none of the 1st party RF lenses have a mechanically coupled AF rings. Maybe the super tele L primes, but those are EF derivatives.Linear STM in RF24-105STM and 15-30 is decent, but with STM you lose mechanical full time AF if you use AF-S/One shot.
There is no "mechanical full time AF" (You meant MF?) in any RF lens.Linear STM in RF24-105STM and 15-30 is decent, but with STM you lose mechanical full time AF if you use AF-S/One shot.
Not with all RF lenses. But that’s not because of the focus motor, but rather the lens firmware. The first several RF lenses don’t support electronic full-time MF (e.g., neither the 24-105 non-L nor the L).There is no "mechanical full time AF" (You meant MF?) in any RF lens.
The lenses are focus by wire, you can manually override AF in one shot or continuous with AF-Stop as it was offered in EF lenses with mechanical MF coupling.
I'm sure plenty of people can find a use for this lens.I just can't find any use for this outside APS-C system.
[Who] needs 10mm in fullframe?
Looks Canon want to sell a L STM for APS-C users for $2300 bucks... 16-32 mm equivalent!
Yes, it’s fine for Astro as plenty of folks use the 11-24 with great success, and this one is wider for ultimate star trails and full Milky Way shots!I'm sure plenty of people can find a use for this lens.
You're right, no one does. Thanks for being so smart![Who] needs 10mm in fullframe?
Sarc lost once again. The OP will take that as a compliment.You're right, no one does. Thanks for being so smart!
You don't need it doesn't mean there's no need for it.I just can't find any use for this outside APS-C system.
How needs 10mm in fullframe?
f4 doesn't fit for astrophotography.
25 cm minimum focus distance is impossible also to use underwater (potential use). A new fisheye RF stills missing.

IS on a 10mm lens, it’s just a gimmick. The main selling point here is the relative light weight, small size and the “new to Canon” widest rectilinear lens they have made.Also IS versus none.
