The M6II definitely not a fallback.

The M6II is not bad but the exposure control wheel is missing. It is one of my most used controls.

I thought I would miss it, too. But I don’t. Eg. when in AV, TV or P mode the “Func dial” defaults to exposure compensation after you half press the Shutter button. I actually like that better. When I am using the (original) M6 I sometimes feel a bit lost, until I suddenly remember that e.c. wheel. 😃

The M6II is also missing the custom button by the lens. I use it as a DOF preview or shutter timer.
