I was a Canon guy for 20 years, but I sold my Canon R5 and all my lenses last year. I’ve hate what Canon has become, especially with being so tight on the RF Mount and not letting any third parties make lenses.

I’m mostly shooting on Leica now, but my wife has a Sony a7 IV that I’ve loved using at times and I plan on buying a Sony A7 (IV or R V) at some point down the line. I think Sony is a much better camera than Canon these days.
