Verdict
Pick the EOS RP if you prioritize higher resolution, 4K video (even cropped), and a lighter mirrorless body for 95 EUR more. The 5D Mark III stays the better choice if you need faster burst shooting (6 fps), prefer an optical viewfinder, or want to save nearly 100 EUR for stills-focused work.
