I think it is worth upgrading, even if you plan on only using EF lenses. I still have quite a few, and from my experience, AF is a lot better, and often faster than it was with the EOS dslrs. And that was true for the EF 50 F/1.2L and the EF 85L as well.
Once I got the RF 24-105L, was amazed by the IQ, especially compared to the EF versiosn odf this lens, and got over the size of the L-primes, I first got the RF 50L, was blown away, totally, so replaced the EF 85L as well. Once you have used those lenses, there is no going back ....
Kind regards, Wim
Thank God I actually have no money to buy an R5 or R6.
?
If that is the case, maybe you should have it serviced.
I never had any problems at all with my 24L, netiher Mk I, nor Mk II (which I still have and use, with RF-adapter).
I have used them on anything from 350D, to 450D, to 40D to 50D to 5D, 5D Mk II, and now EOS R.
Occasionally I also use it on my Olympus E-M1 II, with any of my Metabones adapters / speedboosters.
No problems at all with AF.
Kind regards, Wim
