Are Canon RF lenses silent when auto focusing in video mode? Compared to EF lenses?

Hello,

I do a lot of filming with Canon's L-series EF lenses, and I can't help but notice that sometimes they're a little a noisy while using auto focus. If you're rapidly changing focus within a scene, the lens does make a bit of noise.
Has anyone shot video with the RF lenses and used auto focus? Are they silent or quieter compared to EF?

Thanks!
 
I had the 24-105 RF briefly. It made audible noise. Not as much as some of the EF lenses, but it is not as quiet as an STM lens.
