Re: M5 II "Mini RP" concept

Nice mock-up!

To me the strength of the M series is the size; the M6 is the largest M I'd like to carry around. I'd enjoy having a built-in EVF, but not if it makes the camera any larger.  (The M100 is even smaller of course, but dearth of buttons irks me.)

With this in mind, RP and M5 are already way too big - when I played with one next to an R and M6 the RP felt much closer in size to the R than the M6.

It'd of course be fine if Canon did an M5 II like you propose as long as they also did an M6 II no larger than the current M6
