CAMERA: https://amzn.to/3BB4Xqm
My fav camera 🥰. A love of my life. My third child (I only have two human children).
There can only be one choice. This is a middleweight camera. I loved the smaller brother (M50) and I have no interest in rolling with the big boys and their cameras. So for me - this is the one!

I have several but if I had to just take ONE lens with me - it would be this.
It is AWESOME.

If the Canon EOS r is a bit out of reach, then my camera before this was the Canon M50.
