Re: Eagle and Osprey wouldnt come out

I am also considering the R7, because of its versatility packed into a smaller and lighter package for travel than my 80D. The 80D is only worth about $400 in trade-in. I have 7 EF and EF-s lenses that I also want to use on DSLR. I like having 2 bodies when I am traveling by car. If I bought the R7, the only lens I would buy is the RF 24-105mm and keep it on the body all of the time.

If I pro-rate the $400 loss out to 10 years of usage, that is 40/year. I spend a lot more than that on Scotch every year. As I told my brother once, if spending a certain amount of money on your hobby won't make any difference in the rest of your life, do it. Just don't do it too often.
