From 6D to RP? (R?)

Re: From 6D to RP? (R?)

If focus stacking is a must for the OP, don’t forget that it doesn’t have to be a native function within the camera. It can be done on the R by using either EOS utility (tethered to a laptop) or the Camera Connect app on your phone or tablet (wireless). Both work very well and have greater functionality than the in-camera firmware.

regarding the EVF, I found the RP viewfinder rather small, and much preferred the R. Both EVFs can appear a little dark when using outdoors in bright light, in this situation the OVF of a dSLR is brighter. But in poor light, the EVF is much better. Also you can have all the shooting info, histogram, level etc on the EVF, plus manual focusing aids and magnification, all of which are better than an OVF, and you can review on the EVF.

Mirrorless bodies do not need AF micro adjustment, for anyone using long lenses this is a major advantage
