Judging by the dpreview samples, the RF 24-50 is absolutely worthless, I'd rather buy a cheaper body and some better lenses. What's the point of using a fullframe body with a cr@p lens?

With respect, you're a Nikon shooter on a Canon forum, be kind. But, here you go.

Nikon should be scared of that R8. Makes the Z5 look, obsolete.

I am a Canon shooter and I don't care about charts, I rather judge images. The samples provided by DPR with the 24-50 look pretty bad. Nothing wrong with the camera, the issue is with that lens.

It’s no L, you can buy an L if that’s your fancy. But you can buy the 24-50 if portability is. Nothing wrong with choices. The R8 is the star of the show here (IMO).

DPR said it well, you can buy an R8 instead of an R6 II, with a 24-105L, for the same price as the R6 II alone.

Agree. If I was looking to replace my RP -which I am not, I would go for the R8 for sure.
