    This is the first full frame sensor camera I must say wow. The images this thing captures is incredible. Every detail is crisp and visible. I have never shot in manual until I got this camera and I love it. It took me about a week to start understanding the settings, but I'm getting there.

    Excellent camera for the price point. Kinda reminds me of the RP. Light and easy to use if you've had experience with canon cameras.

    The truth is it's impressive and nothing to envy the R6, lighter and an excellent option if you don't have the money for an R6 or R5.

    so this is the best entry level full frame mirrorless camera that I have owned I upgraded from the Canon EOS RP to the Canon R8 because I wanted longer video record time and its been great I've been using the RF 24-70 F2.8 Lens aside from the over heating and battery life I give this camera a 4/5

    This camera has been a champ! Not only that but you guys have a beast of an employee in your camera department. Gentleman named Tyler. He is a book full of knowledge when it comes to anything photo and video related. He always makes my shopping at Best Buy a pleasure. Give that man a gold star for his customer service, his knowledge, attentiveness, character, and personality.
