Canon Releases Recommended Lenses List for EOS 5DS & EOS 5DS R

That is why I specifically included the comments "how much is moot, if it is 'enough' is also moot", those subjective elements are moot. However, anybody claiming something as definitive as "I personally think using a 24-70 f4 IS, for example, is a waste of time and potential for the 5DSR" has zero credibility unless they can post something that gives that opinion some substance and validity, and some context of your personal output size expectations and quality demands would give relevance. Delivering 30,000 images a year means nothing other than you could give us some workflow pointers if they are passport sized images, if, for instance, you don't see a difference from the 24-70 until you go above 14" x 21" prints then that gives context.

Though all in all the use of the 5DS is overstated from a resolution point of view, sure it is there for some of the pixel peepers, but real world tests to non photographers don't care.

Now, apparently, we are arguing about arguing. I automatically assume people with 5DSRs are pixel peepers and/or want huge prints and/or want to crop heavily so I can't fathom why I need to mention this in every single post on the subject. To me, it's a given.

And again you reply with nothing to back up your opinion of the unsuitability of the 24-70 f4 on the 5DS/R, or any context as to what you consider "huge prints"..............

It's not that I disagree with your critique of how to properly present an argument. I feel there is enough context that I don't have to go further.
