I have noticed that many M system owners utilize these cameras as a compact supplement to their larger 7D and 5D series DSLRs. Are you "all in" with mirrorless, or do you also rely on DSLRs for certain projects?

I previously had a M3 for travel, along with my 7D and 80D. I got frustrated with the M3 focusing speed, (compared to the DSLR) and sold it, and eventually the 7D and 80D, to get the R. The R just helps me nail focus.

I am still toying with dipping my toe back into the M series for travel purposes. I may try the m6II out to see its overall handling. The M series reminds me a lot of my old G3... easy to carry, and a quality camera that can give nice results. As I near retirement, having something for more frequent, relaxed travel will become a bit more important.

Now if only the owner of the camera could learn to take better pictures....
