Excellent, but...

Camera was bought specifically for travel. It has all the customisable features I require, including resolution, but is seriously let down by the poor quality of lenses by Canon, particularly the zoom range. Canon’s hype for this camera is therefore misleading, if not downright false. This means I’m unable to write anything too positive about the camera ‘cause I’ve yet to discover its real potential for taking high quality photographs!
lenses for it are: siggy 56 f1.4 and siggy 16 f1.4 and canon 32 f1.4 and canon 11-22
beyond that - a lot of buts
What about the 22f2? Everyone seems to praise that lens.
im on the fence right now about buying a m6ii. It seems to be a great camera but I’m just not super excited to buy it. Not a huge fan of the removable eye sore evf either. But if it creates good imagines that’s ultimately what matters.
also debating between the 15-45 and the 18-150 kit if I do end up buying one.
The Canon 18-150mm lens for the M6 MkII is useless beyond a focal length of about 50mm (if that). Image quality deteriorates quickly beyond that. And in even slightly low light conditions noise is very much apparent. I would not recommend this lens.
Thanks for the feedback. This is exactly what I was looking for...wasn’t sure if the extra $250 was worth it or not. I’m not really looking for the extra bulk either.
I wouldn't take one person's word for it about the 18-150. There are many of us who have good copies. In my opinion, it's well worth the extra over the 15-45, if you're going to buy a zoom.
I’m sure the RP is an excellent camera for the price but I’m mainly looking for a small, take everywhere type kit. The M6ii w/22f2 seems to fit the bill. And then I’d probably add the sigma 56 for that creamy bokeh.
Excellent choices.
i actually am debating a fujifilm x100V as well but I’ve never had a fixed lens camera and not sure if I’ll be happy with it. There’s something very alluring about no hassle of lugging around lenses and just focusing on the photos.
You can get that lack of hassle by putting the 22 on the M6II and leaving it there. I often do just that (and did that with the original M and 22, and then the M6 and 22). Just because you can change lenses, doesn't mean you have to.
I 100% agree, which is why I’m leaning towards the M6ii. But I keep thinking, if I’m going to leave the 22 on all the time, why not get the X100v? I get the built in OVF/EVF, weather sealing, built in ND filters, leaf shutter, etc. it really boils down to the flexibility of swapping lenses.
That is a lot of money for a one focal length f3.2 lens
Price is negligible for me. $999 for M6ii kit + $249 for 22f2 vs $1299 X100V (B&H EDU discount).
There are trade offs either way I go...just need to decide which is best for me. Glad you are enjoying your FF camera.

Fujifilm's X-H2 is a high-resolution stills and video camera, that sits alongside the high-speed X-H2S at the pinnacle of the company's range of X-mount APS-C mirrorless cameras. We dug into what it does and what it means.
Holy Stone produces dozens of low-cost drone models aimed at consumers. We look at the HS710 and HS175D to see if they stack up to other sub-250g offerings. Are these secretly great or more like toys?
It's small, light, cheap and extremely wide but is it any good?
After weeks with a production Fujifilm X-T5, Chris and Jordan have some final thoughts.
The EOS R6 II arrives in one of the most competitive parts of the market, facing off against some very capable competition. We think it rises to the challenge.
Above $2500 cameras tend to become increasingly specialized, making it difficult to select a 'best' option. We case our eye over the options costing more than $2500 but less than $4000, to find the best all-rounder.
There are a lot of photo/video cameras that have found a role as B-cameras on professional film productions or even A-cameras for amateur and independent productions. We've combed through the options and selected our two favorite cameras in this class.
What’s the best camera for around $2000? These capable cameras should be solid and well-built, have both the speed and focus to capture fast action and offer professional-level image quality. In this buying guide we’ve rounded up all the current interchangeable lens cameras costing around $2000 and recommended the best.
Family moments are precious and sometimes you want to capture that time spent with loved ones or friends in better quality than your phone can manage. We've selected a group of cameras that are easy to keep with you, and that can adapt to take photos wherever and whenever something memorable happens.
What's the best camera for shooting sports and action? Fast continuous shooting, reliable autofocus and great battery life are just three of the most important factors. In this buying guide we've rounded-up several great cameras for shooting sports and action, and recommended the best.
