A few lenses to go with that. RF 14-35 F4. The 15-35 is 2.8 but another $900. You don't need 2.8 with the modern NR software these days. Many years ago I shot real estate for a short time and I always stopped down for DOF.

The RF 16 2.8 is great piece of glass and inexpensive. Sharp lens.

That 16 looks like a nice lens. I should have picked one up when it was $149 the other day.

It is. It's even worth the full price.

Maybe it is, but I can put the savings toward a nice bottle of wine and a large meat lovers pizza

Lots of good ideas here!

My experience in the area was shooting commercial real estate and high rises in Los Angeles area was Toyo 45G 4x5 film camera for the "money shots" and Canon 20D and 5D for details and quick turnaround. That morphed into just DSLR, and later to mirrorless. I have the 17TSE, 24 TSE II and 45 TSE, but I'll happily shoot Zeiss ZE lenses on Canon keeping the camera level (or fixing in PP). For the last ten years or so, I shoot mostly Sony mirrorless and Zeiss lenses whenever possible.

As the other Jim indicated, if you keep your camera level you can get by with great primes and zooms for almost all shots. I mainly use the Sony a7R4 with 61MP sensor. But I can get great shots with the Canon R body, and that is probably the most cost effective Canon mirrorless body and has a very good 30MP sensor.

When we put our Simi Valley home up for sale before moving out of CA to WA, I was surprised to see the photographer bring a 5D3 with 16-35/2.8L II, and the shots he took in one hour were pretty amazing especially for the low price he charged! They really turned out well with only available lighting and on-camera bounce flash.

I recommend the Canon R with EF-RF adapter as a great starting point. R5 would be great but even a used body is around $2.5k. My "old" 5DsR is pretty fantastic with 51MP, but mirrorless is so much easier to deal with. Sony a7R4 is a dream and my most used camera. I'll eventually add an R5 when a version II is released and used originals go down below $2k.

Even my old 1Ds3 still takes amazing shots, but much easier to manually focus on mirrorless bodies.

Looking forward to seeing some of your photo posted here after you get your next camera!

The R is not a good choice too for that purpose. That was my first ML body and I really liked the 30mp sensor. The R5 is fine body but to me that's a lot megapixels for that job. I suggested the R6II because it is newer and very versatile. I was surprised how much I could crop with it. Also very good AF so the OP can expand with it. Not that R has bad AF. I did a lot of BIF with it.

R with my RF 25-105 F4. I am leaning towards the R system with suggestions because at this point that is the future. Nothing wring with DSLR's. Lens choices for real estate are key.

Yes it is. Loved that place. Good catch. We are going back to Portugal in February. We’ll likely go there again and visit Nazare and the Douro river valley. Plus anything else North.

This actually was our car rental. Parked by the fountains in Alte.

I have been using the 5DS R and TS-E17L for longer than I can remember. I was playing with a new Zagato for ultra tight focusing in Live View.

Confession: Every time I see this tread in the forum listing I misread it as "Best Body for Inferior Photographer."

I rented that and the 24mm one. Nice glass but a bit too much for me and my purposes.

We were just there in July as part of a 10-week visit to lots of interesting places in Southern Europe. We like Porto a lot.

No, we didn't.

Our Portugal itinerary on this trip was largely influenced by the fact that we were meeting up with our youngest son and his wife, and they had already set an itinerary for the first part of the trip. (In fact, the entire trips arc was built around two such family meetings — the one in Spain and Portugal at the start in early July and a get-together with our "European family" for almost two weeks in Kosovo and Croatia in late August. So we started with those two fixed points and then filled in the rest of the trip around them.)

So, on this visit we had three days in Porto and four in Lisbon. I suspect that we'l return to Portugal and push out beyond those places in the future.

Our mode of travel: We travel very light, sticking entirely to carry-on luggage — even n very long trips. We don't do "tours," with the exception of a few rare local tours. When we visit a location we do hit some of the "hot spots," but more than that we spend a tone of time wandering around on foot, sometimes seemingly randomly, and end up discovering things we would otherwise miss. :-)
