Folks, I am very interested in how you assess the quality of the R5 as a camera when it comes to the way it is built. I had 40D, 5D MKIIm 5D MKIII and now R5 and so far R5 is most probably the worst of them when it comes to the way it is built.

But then again, it could be my case only and my perception.

Personally, I think the R5 is as solid as my old 5D3. I upgraded from the R because I liked how the 5D3 felt. The R is a great camera but just didn't feel right when used to higher end bodies.

It might help if you be more specific on what annoys you with the R5 camera vs your 5D's...
