Canon is slowly but surely starting to build out their lens catalog of decent lenses that aren’t $1500-3000 in price, and the RF24M at a price point of $599 USD joins the recent RF 16mm F2.8 (my review here), the aforementioned 35mm F1.8 Macro, and the RF 85mm F2 Macro IS (my review here) as lenses that that help fill that space.
The last budget lens from Canon that I reviewed was the interesting Canon RF 16mm F2.8 STM, a wide angle prime with both big flaws (huge barrel distortion, heavy vignette) but also big strengths (good autofocus, good sharpness and color).

The Canon EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM is the best pancake lens for Canon DSLR cameras. It has a wide 24mm focal length. It takes sharp and clear images. And it’s one of the most affordable prime lenses you can find. It’s a solid-gold bargain! The 24mm focal length gives you a terrific wide angle.
