Description
Today's question from Lauren C. is, "Hi David. I'm starting to do some bigger photography jobs and have a gear question for you. I own a Canon R5 camera, but think I should have a second body for backup just in case. Does it make sense to rent something when I need it or should I spend the money and buy a second body? And should the backup match my R5 or should I get something different?"
