If you want to have a lens + body combination that uses the whole capacity of the sensor of an R-series body, then you have two choices.
- Get the R5 and a suitable full-frame lens. If you are going to do that, and can afford to, I would buy an RF lens; and to get something like the wide focal range you have been using (assuming that is what you want to continue with), then the RF 24-240 lens is a good unit and produces excellent results. For a review of this lens see reviews from: Cameralabs or Justin Abbott
If you have the funds, you could consider the RF 24-105 and the RF 100-400 combination.
- Get one of the new R-series APS-C bodies: the R7 or R10, and use your existing 18-300 with the adapter and that should then work to use the whole sensor. The R7 is definitely the better of these two units, and with its 32MP sensor, it is the equivalent density of an 83MP sensor on a FF camera. It has the same tracking and In Body Image Stabilization as the later FF RF units. The R10 is a much cheaper and less capable unit, without the IBIS and is not as well built.
