I work for a large global company as a motion designer, but also do a lot of videography and photography around our offices. I have 3 x GH5 II's for my filming purposes but need a better photography camera. I currently use a 60D that was left by the last guy and is quite old and battered now. I've been given a good budget to upgrade and want to make sure I get the best available camera. I can't decide between the 5D IV or the R6 II and would like to hear some suggestions.
Thanks!

I would recommend going with a mirrorless body at this point. Either the R6 Mark II or even the R5.
Also, what lenses do you currently have with the 60D? If they are all EF-S lenses, you wouldn't be able to use them with an EOS 5D IV (or anything in the 5D line)
What is your current budget? Be sure to look at the new excellent RF lenses as well based upon what focal ranges you need.

Ricky's recommendation. 👍
Mirrorless with new RF glass for sure.
