Re: Travel with EOS M instead of EOS R?

I just arrived in SE Asia after spending weeks in Japan and Taiwan.

I took EOS R with RF 15-35 on Webill S everywhere. The RF 28-70 was in a lens bag and not getting much use as I captured 4K clips for 99% of the trip.

I took six batteries (a spare with me during each outing), a small Canon flash for fill and two sd cards.

The EOS R on a gimbal is much lighter than my previous setup of 5DIV with 20mm f2.8 on Ronin S.

The APS-C you wish to get will be lighter. However, you may feel yourself restricted in certain situations, such as shooting movie indoor etc.

I also had gopro hero 7 and osmo pocket but didn't use them while in Japan.

My suggestion is save the money for Japan and bring your EOS R.
