Was on a camera club field trip this weekend. Planned to have a decent range zoom but also a wide. What I wound up using actually surprised me.......
As a very happy DSLR shooter (my go-to is the 5Div with the 28-70 f/2.8), I got the RP because it was lighter and smaller than the 5Div and was full frame. This was to be my "backup" body....the travel, the grab and go, or the one to use if the DSLR was not working. I got the RP after selling my entire M / M5 setup and some lenses I no longer used and have been happy.
So, this past weekend, after a very short time in the field, I found I was using the RP with the RF 24-105 as my primary kit and and relegated the 5Div with the EF 16-35 as the backup! I could have been happy with the RP alone but this way did not have to change lenses in the field.
Really starting to look towards the R as my primary but not there yet.
