I'm an amateur/hobbyist photographer and I'm interested in upgrading from my EOS 80D to a Canon mirrorless.
I use the camera mostly for landscape photography and travel, with some occasional portraits.
I don't shoot action sports very often, but I am interested in wildlife photography and the animal eye tracking feature is interesting.
I have a collection of EF L glass lenses and a couple of EFS lenses (EFS 10-22 for wide angle with the APS-C sensor).
I'm thinking now might be the right time to change to a full frame sensor and get the EF adapter so I can use my existing lenses and upgrade them to RF lenses over time.
I'm looking for a camera that will take noticeably better pictures than my 80D.
Which bodies should I be considering?

Far from an expert but, based on my own experience, if the R7 is the newest and within your budget, I would go that direction. Four years ago, an editor/mentor recommended a T6 to get me started but a camera shop said it was being replaced with the T7 which I bought. When you get the camera, looking forward to seeing some photos in the Share Your Photos section.

If you do get an adapter. I would get the control ring adapter. The control ring can be set to change different settings such as ISO or aperture. You can also have Canon de-click it if you don't want to hear it click while turning it.
