Yes, canon’s new mirrorless is expensive. But look how far they’ve come with the technology in such a short time. They need to recover some of that R&D. I love my R6 and would like to keep it a while. The RF 35mm 1.8 and RF 85mm F2 are excellent for their lower prices versus L lenses. Some gripe about AF but I’ve had a fine experience with them. I like my cheap RF 50mm 1.8 mainly to go with my smaller RP body.  I will be keeping my Tamron 24-70 2.8 G2 and 70-200 2.8 G2 for a while. The RF L series equivalents are too pricey. If I could afford the RF 50mm 1.2 I would be happy for a long time I think. If I was budget conscious (which I am having upgraded the past 5 years as business could afford me to upgrade from older uses gear), I would strongly consider Sony because of the great priced A7III and their third party lens offerings.
