Is the R3 a better camera than the R6, sure it is.  It better damn well better be for 3.7 times the price.  So bang for the buck I  don't see it as worth the extra bucks.

The R3 does have rolling shutter but is less than the R6.

I hear from you more I WANT over I NEED.

Make a list of your NEEDS and another one for your WANTS.  Check the specs on both and see how they fill your NEEDS and WANTS.

Are you a hobbyist or do you make a living in photography ?

There is nothing wrong with getting a camera for your wants just be honest about to yourself.

I would love to have an R3 but I have NO real need for but a whole lot of want

Also there is the weight problem with the R3 at 1015g and the R6 at 680g

At the price of the R3 I would rent one for a week to make sure its what you need and want.

best of luck.
