Canon R7 (super) zoom lens options? Are there any good zoom/superzoom lenses that work well with the Canon R7? I want an ‘all in one’ lens or something similar. I know the RF 18-150 is decent, but are there any other options like adapting from EF/EF-S lenses with decent quality with possibly more range? Maybe 18-200/300 range.
