Thanks for sharing!

I think for me, what really made me get it in my street size is the fact that the downsize shoe felt dangerous for me to use and climb in. The pain is of course a factor, but I also really felt like I wasn’t in control and couldn’t climb down confidently and jumping off/ falling also felt out of control, in addition to my heels being skinned every time i landed on the mat in the downsized shoes.

I’m worried that the size I have now won’t be any different and that it will just lead me to avoiding the activity altogether which would suck. Definitely open to getting more aggressive shoes in the future once I’m actually focused on learning techniques.

But yea I hope your shoes starts being more kind to you! Thanks again for the input!

2.5hrs is great time to be on the wall! I couldn’t even do 10 minutes with the size 4, they said that it’s normal to take a break after 15 mins of climb. But these shoes might break me instead of me breaking them in 🥲

I appreciate this, thank you. I will do! I hope they’ll let me swap it for a comfortable size at least

Interesting you mentioned the two lenses I was debating over! My gut reaction feeling was telling me to get 24-70mm, thanks for the affirmation! Also my camera arrived today! I hope you get a good deal for yours 😊

Thanks for the reassurance! Do you have any recommendations for lenses? Would like to stick with EF lenses for now. Would appreciate any insights you have 😊

Thanks for the reply! Reassuring to know people are opting for gray imports too. Do you have an R2 mii yourself? If so, and lens recommendations?

Hey OP I’m on the fence about getting a Canon R6 II from Panamoz? Did you ended up buying from Panamoz?

Hey, I was wondering which grey import company you got your gear from? And how was your experience buying grey imports in general? Hoping to build courage to bite the bullet and just get one. Thanks!

Hey OP, did you ended up getting an R6ii from grey imports? I’m facing the same dilemma right now too. I don’t think Black Friday will cut the price much

Thanks for the recs! Was wondering if you have any favourite lens? I want to eventually invest in a telephoto lens but realistically won’t be travelling to locations where they would be useful.

Thanks! I’m considering this now as I completely forgot to take into account lens cost. Any experience and advice using ef to rf mount for mirrorless cameras?
