Thinking of getting a third body - R6II or second R7
2

Hi All,

Before I switched to Canon I had 3 Nikon bodies and found it very useful to have a camera at the ready without having to change lenses.  I had two crop bodies and one full frame.  I do a lot a bird photography but I also want to branch out to other genres, landscape and street photography.

So now I have the R5 and the R7.  Both great cameras in my opinion.  I really enjoy the R7 with the kit lens (18-150mm).  They both do very well with the RF100-500 lens.  Probably keep that on the R7 for further reach, however the R5 does very well with that lens as well, most likely because of the higher mp.

Now I am considering either the R6II or another R7.  I am leaning to the R6II for a good all a rounder and for good low light shooting.  I have 5 RF lenses that I can use on all of these bodies so over time I can kind of see which lens I want on each camera.  Maybe it sound like I'm being overindulgent however, it's my hobby and the cost is not a factor, and I like the convenience of 3 bodies.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Thanks, Tom
