My old 5D Mark IV is finally giving up on me, the autofocus is just hunting way too much during my wedding shoots lately and im honestly just tired of missing shots. So I was thinking maybe its time to go mirrorless and my logic was that the R5 is the only real choice for the resolution I need but I cant believe the price is still so high after all this time.
I looked at used ones on MPB but the prices are basically the same as new. I need to get this sorted for under $2900 before a big gig in New York next month. Is there some hidden promo or refurbished drop I dont know about? Finding a decent deal feels impossible...
You should definitely check the Canon USA refurbished site. I bought my Canon EOS R5 45MP Mirrorless Body through their direct store and the condition was basically brand new. I have been super satisfied with it. They frequently run sales that drop the price to around $2599, which fits your budget. It works well for my professional gigs and I dont have any complaints about the performance.
