Thank you! Yes, the R5 is a real beast! But can be quite overkill, depending on what you use it for of course...
My personal opinion: always go for the best lenses you can afford, the body has a lot of nice numbers that sound cool, but the real stuff is mainly the lens.

Indeed, it helps having some experience, you will know much better which features of the camera are important to you, and which are complete overkill.
Happy shooting! 😉

well i started enjoying photography taking pictures of skaters, so i like wide angular. I got for my old canon a 50mm 1.8 that i used a lot for street and other stuff, then a 10-18 aso canon (cheap) but cool for action shots in the skatepark.
I got aso a old 75-300 from my parents, that i used to play a bit.

Now for the sony i got two lenses a 18 - 135 from the kit, and a 50mm 1.8. So i got the basic need covered for this year.

I'm still learning, and enjoying :)

Good combos! And indeed, it also all depends what your style is. A photographer friend of mine had 10-ish lenses for his Nikon cameras, not one was above 100mm 😂
The 50-1.8 is a lovely lens, and very versatile. If only one lens, or limited budget, I would take that one (or the 1.4, 1.2, if more budget available ;-) ) for the fullframe, or the 35mm version for a crop sensor.
