Hello Texasguy,

For wildlife photography, money aside, I recomend the R5 Mark II hands down and the R6 Mark II as a runner up.  I have both caneras and I love the EOS R6 Mark II, which I've had since December 17, 2022.  However, I preordered the R5 Mark II and received it on 8-21-24 and I love it !  The R6 Mark II comes with 24.5MP while the R5 Mark II comes with 45.5MP, also the R5 Mark II comes with a lot of new features that I recomend you reading about them.  Those are my choices in order of priority. 

For wild life, you can't go wrong with either camera. 🙂

Cheers,
Joe

If you are considering any kind of photography, especially wildlife, you must consider the glass.  Do you have lenses or would this be part of  your no-financial-limitations scenario?
