As an enthusiast that takes portraits, travel, some macro, some wildlife, and a desire to do more sports and birding; I’ve always wanted to upgrade my SL1 to a full frame sensor/mirrorless.

Price is a big deal for me, and I want to buy once cry once–i want a camera that will last me the next 8+ years. Reviews on the RP look great, and I don’t pretend to be an expert–im confused though, because while the R6 mkii has a few nice features I can’t see why it costs twice as much. Is the R6 mkii worth the upgrade, and/or will it be more future proof?

      There’s also the added familiarity with Canon that shouldn’t be underestimated.

      As a tech nerd who tends to pick up new user interfaces quickly, I may underestimate that factor for other people. I think any newer mirrorless is going to be vastly different from a decade-old entry-level DSLR though.
