I recently shot a wedding with the M50 - it was a smallish "destination" wedding where as a guest I stood in for the photographer that pulled out on the 11th hour. For sure I wish I had my wedding workhorse (5DIII) but managed just fine with the M50( with 22/2, 15-45 and EF85/1.8) - in fact for certain aspects (such as focusing) I felt that the M50 performed better.. Yes I agree that it would have been better with a 2nd dial on the top but I would not go as far as saying that its "not enough for photography".

Thanks for your experience. In m50 I like some eye detect functionality btw. It should help in events and portrait photography.

Regardless, I think we agree in one thing that the M6II with a built-in EVF would make the ultimate mirrorless camera for so many people..

The hypothetical M6II with a built-in EVF is my dream camera right now

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.

Add the Sigma 56/1.4 to the list - very impressive IQ - my favourite EF-M lens now.

I agree, the lens is very interesting Indeed. Probably I will buy it some day.
