Hi everyone. Bit of background, I used to have a 60d then upgraded to a 6d mk1 but I sold it about a year ago. I have been camera less ever since and I'm looking to get back into the hobby. Still haven't decided between the 5 or 6. I like to shoot a mixed bag really. Landscapes, seascapes, motor sports and airshows. Any advice on choice? feel free to offer it.

Welcome Stu and thanks for joining up here. It's probably hard to go wrong with either camera, they are both excellent. I went for the R5 because I shoot mainly wildlife and usually end up cropping quite a lot, the extra megapixels would probably be useful for airshows as well. If I only shot sports then I'd probably have just gone with the R6.
