Switching from 6dii to RP -> massive size and weight difference !
1

the below pics say it all:

the new combo is significantly lighter & smaller and should even have better image quality with the new RF 24-105 lens.

I guess the RP/RF combo is only marginally more expensive than the 6d/EF L combo.

Weight of the 6d/24-105: 1560 gram, weight of RP/RF: 1140 grams .. 420 grams difference or 25% less !

I’m happy to spend a few $$ more for these benefits!

I added in a 77D / APS with a lens that has comparable FOV. Also that combo get’s it’s lunch eaten by the RP.

What are your thoughts and how much would you consider to pay ‘extra’ for the weight savings and better IQ?

I guess this full frame ( non super pro ) camera’s will stop to exist very very shortly.
