I was noting the recent post of availability of R5 II bodies at major US outlets and was thinking about how long it has been since I made a major purchase. For me, it seems Canon is in a major lull of products (bodies or lenses) that appeal to my use cases. I shoot primarily landscape with some wildlife thrown in. I have an R5 and many RF and EF lenses that I adapt for my use.
I was noting in my B&H profile that it has been over 3 years since I made a major Canon purchase (body or L lens). This is by far the longest period with no major purchases for me in the past 20+ years. I have had 5 Canon bodies in that time and over 20 lenses (mostly Canon L). I am actually shedding equipment in hopes of upgrading either my R5 or some of my older EF L lenses when equivalent replacements are released. Doesn’t look like that will happen anytime soon.
