Re: M6 Mark II: Very portable and capable

I really like my M6 MK1 and do believe that MK2 is even better, but I'm not happy because of one thing - the lack of built-in EVF. This is so annoying, I don't want it as optional. There are other compact cameras with built-in EVF (Sony A6000, Fuji XE3), they're really compact and budget friendly as well. My previous camera was Sony A6000 and I thought that lack of EVF in new Canon will not be a problem, but I miss it.

And there is no other EOS M cameras to upgrade. They have built-in EVF, but M50 has only one control dial (it's not enough for photography), M5 is nice and has everything what I need but too outdated. No EVF is OK for cameras like M100/200 but not for the level of M6.

Canon M is actually good for selection of compact lenses: 11-22 wide-angle, 22mm f2 pancake, 32mm f 1.4 really sharp, very compact 55-200 and tons compatible EF lenses via adapters, but selection of cameras is poor.
