Just got paid today & looking to buy a new camera. Quick, do I buy a open-box/low shutter D850 or a Canon R5 for around mid-$2k?
To add some context, my father just bought 2 RF lenses (28-70 F2 chode & 85 mm 1.2) to pair with his new R5 MKII alongside his very old 5D MK II lenses (70-200 L I & 17-35MM 2.8 I think and 24-75 L or something).
I don't want to get his hand me down 5d II and would rather purchase either my own Nikon D850 open box with some cheap lenses or a hannukah B&H special R5 for $2699 + the battery grip pack ($349 free).
I would like to get the Nikon D850 but I dont have the funds to buy newer Nikon lenses, also with the Canon I can continue using my fathers really sharp and really amazing lenses albeit not what I am necessarily going to use to shoot.
So /p/ if you had $2k lying around and were in my position, would you get the D850 or an R5?
