EOS Rebel T6 upgrade recommendations

I know this has been over so many times. So please don’t kill me in the comments. I’ve been seeing the R100s for dirt cheap (<$300), I know everyone hates them. I mainly only shoot landscape and have 6 EF mount lenses. Should I wait and see if I can get a killer Black Friday deal on a r100 and get the control ring adapter or just get the cheapo? I went out with a friend and used their RP last week and wasn’t aware of how inconveniently slow my camera was with 3 shot AEBs and autofocus. Been eyeballing dirt cheap SL2s as well.

Hi and welcome to the forum:

Much depends on two things:

A maximum $value budget - cheapo is not terribly informative.
Precisely what lenses you have. Since your camera body is a T6, do you, in fact, have EF-S lenses rather than EF lenses? Please list what they are. You can get the details from the front of each lens:
Lens information
We need Lens type (EF or EF-S), focal range and aperture range for each please.

If you go mirrorless my recommendation would be neither the control ring adapter nor any cheapo versions. Get the Canon adapter.
