Does anyone use the RP as a second body? My main body is an R6 Mk2 and I’m looking for a second body for event/sports photography. I know the RP isn’t very fast at 5 fps, but other than that, how does it compare in terms of AF accuracy and low light performance? The IQ seems to generally be very good with slightly higher resolution than the R6 Mk2 at 26 mp. Any real world experiences?

works for me not best comparison different lens different settings but both ok. Rp would have been better at F8 possible not as blown out.

Im still a beginner but RP always with me on farm and travels with 24/70 "knock about" camera err but try not to knock it about.... No data but definately RP.
Was at my bricks and mortar camera store opening at new site and canon guy there told him what i used RP and R6ii "RP very underrated he said" and "ever read ken rockwell review of RP" so i did.
