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

Yes, it's rather shame that those hardware controls don't really help one with handling and "ease of use". Hope I get used to it soon.  Worst case scenario could be selling it with profit and getting SL2, but the compact size with 22mm lens has the edge here. For that reason alone, I'm not willing to go DSLR ever again.

My friend wants to buy this camera too, so I didn't enjoy it fully, as he got it borrowed for the weekend. I still have to decide what fun glass I need to get. Seems 22mm and 50mm STM does general work for me. Some telephoto lens is coming. At least 55-250mm IS STM. Would be glad for something little longer, but with the same long end image quality. The new kit lens is very hard to outdo in the same class, or for similar money....

I'm looking at Samyang 8mm f/2.8 and 50mm f/1.2. And I wonder about longer focal length macro.
