@briannawu @Scott what's the right hashtag for this?

@paulatkinsonpdx @briannawu #Mirrorless , maybe #CameraSearch

@briannawu @paulatkinsonpdx Having done that (almost exact same) switch 2 years ago (R6 mk1) it's a game changer. The learning curve is really steep but once you master the new autofocus system and customize the camera to how you work, it becomes far more intuitive than a dSLR. I too thought I would just slowly transition over to RF glass, but RF glass is sooooo much better than EF glass (lighter, better image quality, better IS **Control Ring**) that it was only a year before I replaced it all. The R6mk2 will only be a downgrade in resolution and the lack of color noise in the shadows will more than make up for it (went head to head with a 5Dmk4 and R6mk1 in a shadow recovery test and it was no contest). I have a lot more thoughts if you want them.

@Scott @paulatkinsonpdx I do. I would also love to know what you think about the kit lens. F/4 is blerg, but it does look fairly versatile.

@briannawu @paulatkinsonpdx the 24-105 f/4? It is really good, way better than the EF version in image quality. The f/4 is only a problem for dropping out backgrounds, for everything else it's fine. You can get decent separation and bokeh at 105mm (not great, but useful) and as a walk around general duty lens I have been impressed compare to the old EF version (which I seldom used) The RF version is lighter and smaller and Canon finally wised up and put a zoom lock on it. I also have the RF 14-35 f/4. Both lenses can take decent Astro at f/4. no real loss sharpness shooting wide open.

@Scott @paulatkinsonpdx Sounds like this is going to be a great investment!
