    I’ve waited a long time to upgrade my camera and was unsure which one I wanted to go with. I’m more of a hobby photographer and while the r6 mark ii was tempting, this camera has a lot of the same features and quite a bit cheaper.

    The camera quality is great, if you want it a tad bigger just order a R8 extension. Video quality is good and you are able to learn more as far a color grading.

    Wonderful upgrade to my RP and companion for my R7. I’m a learning hobbyist but the dynamic range seem to be a definite step up from my RP. Beautiful images and video.

    The specs this camera gives your for the price are great. Combo this with the 50mm and you have a great starter kit that will produce some amazing pictures.
