Hi everyone,

I have made another Question were i asked which system i should go with, since i plan to switch from my "old" 1DX to an new Mirrorless Camera. I decided to stick with Canon since i have some lenses wich i really like, and i can use all old glas with the new Cameras too!

Now i have a kinda bigger problem: The Canon Eos R is an intersting Camera in my opinion still now, but the R6 has some advanteges, which are still significant for me.
My question now is, if someone used both, what their opionon on the switch was, is it worth the Upgrad, etc.

For those who didn't read my prior thread (so probably no one here), here is what i use it for(text from old thread):

My usecase is, that i make Portrait like Pictures of Animal, and Humans. With that i like photographing Flowers, fow a local Shop, since there is always a verity of them there. If im not creating Photos for an Client, im usually making Landscape and these kind of Portraits.
So my Problem is that i can't really tell with wich one i sould get. One mayor factor is, for me atleast, is the prize to performance. Im Currently transforming Photgraphy to my mane Job, and i get "bigger" contracts here and there. My 1DX is fine, but the Problem is that i can't really shoot silent, and some of my prior clients said, that the pictures were find, and usable, but it would be nicer, if their were sharper, and with more Detail.
I think from the Information i wrote it is clear, why im debating between those two cameras.
My main consern with the R6 is that it maybe has some less Deatil then the R but it has a superior AF, and a Animal AF, which can be useful. On the other side the R6 is like 800-1000€ (956-1195$) more expeniv than the R.
I also know that there were some threads already, but they couldn't really help me. In the end its still going to be my decision, but i need help to figure out which one is the better choise, since both are really good.
Looking forward to your answers

(My current Gear is an 1DX with an 300mm f4. In the bag are an 70-300 Tamron, and a 50 1.8 from Canon and a 85mm 1.4 from Samyang)

Maybe something like a 100mm f/2.8 L Macro would be more helpful?

I have been considering such a conundrum for a few days now, concerning the EOS 5D4, the EOS R, the EOS R5 and EOS R6

I am coming to the conclusion that better pixels, rather than more pixels is the way to go. I have a 5D3, so all the above have better pixels, but I think that the R6 has the best, as I have no real use for the 45mpx of the R5, along with its for me over the top video and huge cost, I like the idea of IBIS, as I do macro a lot and my lens has no IS. I have decide to buy a 100 macro with IS. This with the moveable screen and the superior AF and IS +IBIS should make macro more accurate and easier.

I also do some bird stuff with a 100-400 MK1 with IS. I could do with a bit more reach, so have decided to get a 1.4 converter, more pixels by proxy This should give an improvement on the present situation, with more pixels, better pixels, superior AF and superior IS. All hopefully at the cost of a R5.

I had considered quite seriously the R, but then there have been reports that some have noisy shutters. I hope no one come forward and says that the R6 also has a noisy shutter

Then again, tomorrow I might change my mind, perhaps even this evening
