EOS M6; Focus Peaking + Magnification? EVF-DC2?

Although I decided some time ago not to do 2 systems, I'm considering picking up a used EOS M6 with EVF for strict use with Rokinon 21mm f/1.4 and 50mm f/1.2 as I've been getting the itch to return to manual focus photography for sheer fun.

I know the M5 can do it (Focus Peaking + Mag), but can the EOS M6 do it, either with or without the EVF?

Also, I've used the EVF-DC1 in the past on the EOS M3; any thoughts about the EVF-DC2? Focus peaking and Magnification work best on an EVF of some kind.
