Well with the rumored M50 Mark II on the horizon, I’m going to have to decide which body to designate as my full-time macro shooter. With a fully articulating LCD the M50ii would be the natural choice IMO. But if the AF outperforms the M6ii’s, then I may want to assign it to general duties instead. Egad, I wasn’t expecting this quandary (but it’s a good one to be in).

You can always sell the M6mkII and get 2x M50mkII.

No way! I love the M6ii’s compact form-factor and the (ultra-fast) tilting LCD waaay too much for general shooting.

I see. Actually it's the same here.

The flippy LCD of the M50ii will come in handy when shooting macros though. I honestly don’t think I’ll ever use the M50ii’s EVF.

I would prefer the form factor of the original M5: tilting screen + viewfinder.

Gotta remember, I’ve already “evolved” into an LCD-only shooter.

No no, I'm trying to forget about that.
