A patent showing a couple of higher-end Canon EOS R kit lenses has made its way to the public eye. One of the optical formulas in this parent is for an RF 24-105 f/4L IS, which we obviously already have.

The second embodiment is for an RF 24-80mm f/4L IS. This is a smaller lens and makes some sense as a second and less expensive L kit lenses for RF mount cameras.
