Verdictwhich should you buy?
EOS R10 — Beginners & Vlogging: Canon's most affordable RF body — Dual Pixel AF and a vari-angle screen in a compact, lightweight package.
GH5 — Video, Filmmaking & Hybrid Shooting: The GH5 redefined what a consumer video camera could do — 4K/60p and 10-bit 4:2:2 internal recording made it the independent filmmaker's tool of choice for years.
