Re: Have you considered the EOS RP?

For zoom lovers (it seams to me for you it's about zooms), the RF 24-105mm f/4.0 is an important reason to go RF over M. If that zoom is still to big for you, that might be a sign M is more your thing.

If i where in your shoes i would just order the 18-150mm, see how you like the IQ on your current M body, and return it after testing.

If the IQ is good enough for you >> go M.

If it's not, go RF, as this 18-150mm is the best standard zoom for M, and for better IQ you'll have to go RF (or go with primes).

Thanks, I'm guess I'm leaning towards the m6ii.  I do have the 18-150 and it works for me.  It's that darned EVF that I need to get over.

I'm just really surprised how close the RP with the RF 24-105 f/4-7.1 is to the m6ii and the 18-150. And while I do love my zooms, I could totally see slapping an RF 35 on an RP and calling it a day.  Looking through my landscapes, the majority are shot from 30-35mm. I've hiked with just the 6dii and an EF 40mm and it was always just a hair too long.
