Couple's honeymoon -- what camera should we recommend they buy?


A couple is getting married, and the future groom asked me about what kind of camera to buy so he can get some better photo on their honeymoon, and even afterward. They have phones but pointed out that their phone photos are not as good as others they seen taken with regular cameras. I was shown a few samples, but don't know how skilled their other friends were with photography or what was being used.

I did him either my EOS R with a Tamron 24-70mm 2.8 and said "how's that feel for weight". I could see from expression and reply that it was way too much.

About 4 of us at the same church shoot Canon bodies so it could be handy if the couple got a Canon so we would understand the platform better to help with advice or loan lenses from time to time.

One thing that came to mind later, was maybe a Canon RP with a kit non-L 24-105mm and maybe one 50mm prime for a cheap fast lens to keep on hand. And they could add cell phone photos from both their phones also.

Thoughts for a lightweight Canon travel body and lens. I forget - but it may be Hawaii they are going to for the honeymoon.

Thanks.
