If you’re looking for the quick answer, the quick answer is BOTH yes and no.

Now that we have the annoying clickbaity title and answer out of the way. The more thoughtful answer and review can start. Cool? Cool.

The Ricoh GRiii and Canon R6 are obviously (hopefully to the intended reader) not comparable cameras. So the question is a little absurd from the get-go. However, I now have three (3) high-resolution mirrorless cameras and a real world attention span that only really allows me to use two at a time. Something has to give.

If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment or direct message me on IG @elijahrha or @foxfotoco , I’ll happily respond to anyone on either!

Let’s back up a second though and do the briefest of breakdowns on what my Canon R6, Canon R5, and Ricoh GRiii (listed in order of purchase) are TO ME.

Canon R6: 20 MPX Full Frame RF Mount

Canon R5: 45 MPX Full Frame RF Mount

Ricoh GRiii: 24 MPX APSC Fixed Lens
