LensCoat lens cover for Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z Realtree Max5

Custom-made for your Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z, nothing off the rack

This LensCoat lens cover is truly and consistently custom-made for the Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z (2023). It fits snugly, hardly shifts, and follows the contours of your zoom so precisely that you almost forget there’s a protective cover on it at all. The cutouts are exactly where you expect them to be, and the fit is so specific that it does not fit any other lens models, deliberately designed this way so your RF zoom is optimally wrapped and not just “sort of” covered.

Especially for a high-quality Canon RF L-series lens, this precise tailoring is worth it: you get a clean, stable cover that moves with the zooming and focusing without stretching or flapping. In short: it not only looks neat, it also feels that way.

Ideal for wildlife photographers who don’t want to stand out

When you’re out in the field photographing animals, you know: a shiny black lens is about as subtle in nature as a lighthouse. The LensCoat lens cover in the Realtree Max5 camouflage pattern is therefore ideal for wildlife photographers who want to visually blend their gear into the surroundings. The pattern helps break up the clear contours of the lens so it appears less conspicuous to wildlife.

Especially in wetlands, at lakes, in reeds, or in autumn undergrowth, this camouflage really comes into its own. Your Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z blends in visually much better with the environment, and you can focus on the moment instead of constantly worrying whether your equipment is scaring off the animals.

Premium protection for your lens, tough on the outside, well thought-out on the inside

Your RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z is an investment, and this is exactly where the premium protection for your lens comes in. The LensCoat cover shields the sensitive surface of the lens barrel and takes on the everyday wear and tear, not your glass. Small bumps in the blind, contact with branches, setting it down on rough surfaces – all of that hits the cover first, not the lens body.

This keeps the original surface of your Canon RF lens in good condition for longer, which is not only visually pleasing but also functional: no unnecessary scratches, less abrasion, fewer signs of heavy use. And yes, this is ultimately also good for resale value if you ever want to upgrade or replace your lens.

Elements made of cushioning neoprene, soft shell, hard use

The lens cover is made of elements of cushioning neoprene, the same material used in diving and outdoor sports. This material is flexible, slightly yielding, and acts like a thin shock-absorbing layer around your Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z. It cushions minor impacts without feeling bulky and at the same time provides a pleasantly grippy surface.

Neoprene also has a practical side effect: it feels warm and soft in your hand, which is significantly more comfortable during long sessions or on cooler nights than bare metal or a smooth plastic finish. This way your lens is not only protected, but also more pleasant to handle.

Protects against bumps and scratches, the first line of defense

The LensCoat cover protects against bumps and scratches before they even reach your lens. Whether you’re moving around in a hide, walking through dense undergrowth, or transporting the lens in your backpack: the neoprene cover is the first layer that comes into contact with the outside world.

Especially with a zoom like the Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z, which is used frequently and constantly switches between reportage, wildlife, and landscape, the small contacts add up quickly. With the lens cover you significantly reduce these marks and protect your L-series lens from unnecessary cosmetic wear.

Helps against weather, dirt, dust & moisture, more relaxed outdoors

Of course, the cover does not replace a professional weather-sealing solution, but it helps against weather dirt dust & moisture in everyday photography. The neoprene acts like an additional shell that prevents dirt from settling directly on the lens barrel or moisture from reaching the surface as easily.

If you’re out in drizzle, spray by the lake, or on dusty country roads, it’s far more convenient to clean only the LensCoat afterwards instead of having to wipe down the entire lens body. You can work with more focus without nervously checking your gear at every gust of wind.

Controls remain accessible, full control despite protection

Despite the all-round protective shell, all controls remain accessible. Zoom ring, focus ring, AF/MF switch, or image stabilizer switch: they are accessible through precisely placed cutouts and can be operated as usual. You don’t have to remove or adjust anything when you spontaneously switch from 24 to 105 mm or change the focus mode.

The cover is segmented so that the moving parts of your Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z can rotate freely without the neoprene jamming or twisting. You get the benefits of protection without sacrificing the familiar feel and control.

Insulating function, comfortable grip in cold and heat

In addition to mechanical protection, the neoprene cover also provides a noticeable insulating function. Metal and plastic surfaces can feel uncomfortably cold in low temperatures and surprisingly hot in the sun. With the LensCoat cover, the temperature at your hand is much more comfortable, which really makes a difference during longer sessions.

Especially in the early morning hours when you’re waiting for wildlife, or in summer temperatures in open fields, you quickly notice that the lens feels more neutral with the neoprene cover. You can hold the Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z steady for longer without your fingers getting cold or having to constantly shift your grip because of the heat.

Does not fit any other lens models, deliberately specialized

This LensCoat model is designed so that it really only fits the Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z and no other lens models. This is not a drawback but a deliberate choice: thanks to this specialization, the cutouts, length, and circumference match your lens exactly.

So you don’t have to make any compromises, as is often the case with universal protective covers. No ends that are too long, no crooked openings, no “it’ll somehow fit”. This is a clean, functional solution for exactly one lens: yours.

Good for resale value, a well-kept look pays off

Even if you plan to keep your Canon RF 24-105mm f/2.8 L IS USM Z for a long time, it is simply good for resale value if the surface remains protected. A lens that looks well cared for on the outside appears more trustworthy, is easier to sell, and generally fetches a better price.

Over the years, the LensCoat lens cover absorbs the typical signs of use. When you eventually remove the cover, you’ll find a lens underneath that is in noticeably better condition. For many photographers, this is a pleasant side effect that only really becomes apparent later on.
