Re: R5 for landscapes/architecture/portrait

The R5 is superior for landscapes, architecture, and portraits. If you don't intend photographing any of those then it may well be worthwhile selling it now while it is still worth a lot.

However, on the occasion when you do fill that R5 frame, those 45MP will be truly awesome. I, for one, would keep it.

You know John, "IF" I could get a lot of money for the R5, I think it would make more sense for me to sell it, based on my current uses (98% birding)

The problem for me is, I've never been able to sell anything in my life, and get even close to what I thought it was worth ☹️

I bet I couldn't get $2K for it... With the grip !

As for landscapes, although I hardly ever shoot them anymore, I do have a couple of really nice EF lenses that work amazingly well on my R5... Better than they ever did on a my old DSLR's (16-35 F2.8, and 24-70 F2.8)
