Re: Deal of the year - pulled the trigger on M6

Your review hit the nail on the head. The abundance of dials didn't really help me with shooting adjustments, specially as no shooting info is permanently shown on screen (speed or aperture). I turned the touch screen off, as I got confused: should I change a setting with dials or use the screen? Like you, I found the grip to be somewhat cramped.

That said, the M6 has a lot going for it. Good focus, compact, nice flipscreen. IQ is pretty good and I even liked the kitzoom.

The Sony A6300 has slightly better IQ and grip, But the screen + EVF were pretty much unsusable due to not automatically gaining up in sunlight. Focus also seemed to be more miss than hit.

For the price you got the M6 it's a no brainer!
