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?

I would take R7 - AF is great and it is a new camera. You can use it also later when your toddler starts to run faster. I do not know any benefits of FF cameras for toddler photography.

I've thought about that; when she starts to run, the AF of the R7 is going to prove invaluable.

Don't forget that the R7 and R10 share the same AF system.
