Re: canon 17-40L on canon sl2 or on sony A6300 with metabones adapter

A lot of serious photographers use the SL2 as a second camera and/or backup body. I use one to compliment the 6D I own and is fills this roll wonderfully. The IQ is identical between the 80D, 77D, T7i and SL2. Just pick the camera that meets your needs regarding features versus price. I picked the SL2 mainly for its small size and have found it to greatly exceed my expectations. If you don't need 45 AF points or a deep shot buffer then then their isn't much reason to choose the 77D or T7i over the SL2 unless body size is important. The 80D brings a few things like micro focus adjustment, large battery capacity and a few firmware tweaks but doesn't deliver any better IQ than the SL2.

Also, if you plan to use Canon lenses then I recommend sticking with a Canon body.  The A6300 is a good camera but it lacks things like touch screen ability, swivel screen and some other features that make me eliminate it as a camera I would consider buying.
