✅ Great For
👤

🏔️
Landscape Full-frame dynamic range and weather sealing — ideal for outdoor landscapes.
💍
Wedding & Events Dual card slots, reliable AF, and good high-ISO make it a dependable event body.
✈️
Travel Weather sealing is a bonus for travel. Heavier than APS-C alternatives though.
🏙️
Street Full-frame image quality for street, though the body size is noticeable.
⚠️ Not Ideal For
⚡
Sports & Action 4K/30p and no pre-burst limit its appeal for fast action over dedicated sports bodies.
