I have the Canon R5 and LOVE it. I believe that the R6 has many similar features but at a lower price point.

When I bought my r5 I got it with the "kit" lens. Keep in mind that is was still L-glass, so it wasn't a exactly a sacrifice. It was (still is) a great lens, especially as I was learning the new camera body. Ultimately though it was a gateway drug and I quickly bought faster lenses that currently fill my bag while my f/4 kit lens sits on a shelf.

Happy to answer any questions you have.

- Also, eep, I can't spend that much on a hobby. What I'm already planning to spend is extremely pushing it. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 07:48
- No flash. Compatible cards (SD). Storage ... is definitely a concern. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 17, 07:29
