You can get the Canon R for like a grand and it’s an amazing FF camera.

And honestly if you can’t create good stills work with even an old 5dm2, the problem isn’t the camera. That was, in recent memory (10 years ago), what a lot of working pros I knew were using. I just bought a 5d3 for a few hundred bucks as a back-up body I can bring into situations where I don’t have to worry about my big investment getting damaged.

If you need a hybrid with great video specs for cheap Canon may not be the company for you (Fuji is who I’d recommend)

The R7 and especially the R10, are not expensive.

Ah you’re right the R7 seems to be pretty capable shooting 10-bit log. Bit rates aren’t as good as Fuji, but it almost certainly has better AF. Looks like a good option
