Sorry, just not so. Since the hood, on the 24-105L, moves with the zooming of the lens, the hood can only be designed to be most effective at the widest focal range or else it will cause vingetting there if tele flare control was effective.
have you used both lenses?
i have. i experienced no extraordinary flaring with either lens and, therefore, much prefer the smaller hood.
i could always put a lampshade on the 24-105 and claim it's a superior design but that does not make it so
