Hi there!

I have at the moment a Canon 700D with the kit lens, the EF-S 10-18mm STM and the EF 35mm f/2.

I'm thinking of buying into the mirrorless system, because I have a daughter with 20 months, and I want to be able to photograph her and take some videos where I can rely on the autofocus.

I know the R7 has IBIS and better video, but I'm no birder nor do I shoot sports. Are the R/RP better options for me or are they too long on the tooth?

Have you considered the R10?

I have indeed, but Canon's cripple hammer striked again in the left out IBIS...I would like to film some clips, and that's kind of a deal breaker.

Fair comment.,Sort of knocks out the R and RP too

Unless I'm wrong, and the IS built in the lenses is sufficient...

That depends on how steady you are. I’ve done quite a bit of video with just the IS in the lens and then adding more in post. The R10 also has digital stabilisation but in a crop 4K mode. Maybe watch the Kai W video that compares it.,
