Thanks for sharing your experience with the R6MKII. Nice pics and love the colours! Which white balance setting are you using? I set mine to AWB-W and like it so far. I seldom have the need to adjust the white balance on post.

The bokeh of the RF 24-105/4 looks nice as well.

Cheers,

José

Thanks José. I use AWB-W as well, and rarely adjust in post (sometimes for some indoor shots). I've always liked the 24-105L for portraits. I had the original EF version for many years. It can work very well, depending on the background. You don't always want razor-thin DOF. Even at F4, the DOF can be very shallow, as the shot of my son wearing a mask demonstrates.
