RENT R5/R6 for now if you can't afford it

As an EOS R owner, I would say rent the R5/R6 instead of buying the R or an older EF body.

I make do with the R for some casual wildlife shots, but the eye-tracking AF system is just on another level with the R5/R6, not to mention the significantly increased burst shooting rate, and also a more useable electronic shutter.

Beyond that, invest $$$ into good lenses.
