Interesting, glad you shared your story. I am not a professional but a hobbyist who had all Nikon gear except for a Canon M50 I bought about 2 years ago just for making videos because the Nikon video in my D7500 and D500 wasn't nearly as capable. My passion is bird in flight photography and I began considering switching to Canon because of the R6 as the focusing system seemed much better than anything Nikon has. After much research and agonizing I sold all my Nikon gear except for the D7500 and one Nikon lens (to use as a backup camera system) and bought the R6. I couldn't be happier as the Canon R6 and the animal eye focusing system is great and adjusting to mirrorless hasn't been a problem.
I'm right there. Still thinking about it though. I shoot photo and video and now I have two separate setups. GH5ii and GH5s for video and the D610 for photo but I want some camera to do both. Been thinking about the R6 specially for the autofocus. But idk. I also like the Panasonic sh1 or s5. Or the nikon Z6... I'm so lost haha
Good luck on your new journey with Sony! I’m not a professional but I just left Sony for Nikon mirrorless.
Thank you so much! I might go back to Nikon for fun one day ;)

I'm glad to hear the R6 is just as great! If it wasn't for the video work that I do, I would have gone with the R6 already!

I just sold all of my Fuji gear except for my xt1 for canon. Needed that good autofocus without spending that Sony money 😂
