Re: Need advice regarding buying an EOS RP

Hello everyone,
Background:
I am a novice photography hobbyist. Loves to take photos of everything and share some of them to my Instagram account. I started with an OMD EM10 MKIII, superb little camera, but after using it for a year switched to Fujifilm X-T30. There were no issues with my Olympus, and there were no justifications for the switch, just wanted to try an APSC camera. Love the Fuji camera but now I want to try a full-frame Camera.
Question:
I have gone through many reviews and discussions and finally rounded upon RP. This is not the final choice, as I will be taking around 3-4 months to save up enough money to buy this camera. So the plans can change in the future. So for now, I would like to buy the EOS RP to try their new 600mm RF lens and their 35 mm RF lens.
I would like to shoot animals, landscapes, snapshots, and videos. I do understand that the above two lenses are not the optimal choices but I don't want to try the adapter and other lenses seem to be very expensive.
So could you please share all the bad things you have experienced while shooting with an RP? I couldn't find too many negative things so want to have some external perspectives.
Thank you
Hi,I own the Oly and Fuji that you have(plus lots more).Both are great little cameras.
The RP is better though by a long way,its very user friendly and produces great images.The Fuji does better 4K video though.I'd suggest SAVEing with the Xmas sales being a good time you can "Santa" yourself.It'll be a great pressy!
I mostly have EF/s glass but the 35RF is a must for interior shooting.The 24-240 is a versatile good light piece of glass.
For telephoto I have Sigma 150/600Sports,its HEAVY but works pretty well.The RF 600/800 look pretty good too(once the price comes down).A major weight advantage.Enjoy.
