As an enthusiast that takes portraits, travel, some macro, some wildlife, and a desire to do more sports and birding; I’ve always wanted to upgrade my SL1 to a full frame sensor/mirrorless.

Price is a big deal for me, and I want to buy once cry once–i want a camera that will last me the next 8+ years. Reviews on the RP look great, and I don’t pretend to be an expert–im confused though, because while the R6 mkii has a few nice features I can’t see why it costs twice as much. Is the R6 mkii worth the upgrade, and/or will it be more future proof?

  • I love my RP - i picked one up second hand a few months ago. I’ve always been a budget shooter, though, and it’s the newest camera I’ve had (upgraded from an original sony a7) so ymmv. I love how compact it is, and the ability to use OF lenses - but that part is true of all of them!
