Thanks everyone for your thoughts.

Maybe I need to look at the R.

Shame there are no Canon rebates or good deals out there at the moment.

I went from 5D original to EOS R a year ago and am very happy with that. Coming from the original 5D (which I loved) everything about the R is better. AF is way better, image quality better, speed much better. It's a joy to use and the price difference of it and the R6/R5 means money left over for some RF glass.   I rarely shoot video and with the 5D obviously couldn't have shot video if I wanted to. So nothing to miss there.  You will be very happy with the R.   Would I like an R5 - yes of course. Can I justify the extra $3500 CAD in cost to get there - no way.

Good luck with your decision!
