Hey everyone, I have an R7 right now, and it’s been a powerhouse for the last 2.5 years. Looking at getting a second camera that fits the lens I currently have, and am considering the R5. Goal is to purchase it by mid April, so I have some time to save up for it. Would love to get anyone’s thoughts or recs on the R5, or anything else I should consider

Hi @berus44 what lenses do you have are they Full Frame (RF) lenses or APS-C (RF-S). Or are you adapting older EF or EF-S lenses.

"I ... am considering the R5."
You know the R5 has been discontinued since the R5 Mk II is out. But you can still buy one.
