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?

    @ThermosOfPain lens selection was ultimately what pulled me into the Canon camp years ago, and drove my switch to Sony when I gave up my 5DIII to go mirrorless. There’s also the layers of quality - price tiers if you will - that Sony offers: entry, G, and G Master that allows you to tailor your lens choices to a personalized mix of purpose and budget that Nikon and Canon don’t offer yet on the mirrorless side but are getting closer.
