Great to read a genuinely 'real world' review, thanks for taking the trouble to post it.

Not so good

  • I find eyeAF doesn't really work for weddings. I imagine it's great for motorsport, but at a crowded wedding - it doesn't quite nail the focus in the places I'm looking for.

If that's the only complaint, I'd say you have the perfect camera!

Yep, it's about as perfect as it gets. I just wouldn't want a wedding photographer to upgrade from R5's to R3's thinking the eyeAF will change their world, as I imagine it'll be better suited to other forms of photography.
