Recent M6 Mark II shutter shock study / M50 upgrade path rant

What cameras actually need the most is a setting enabling you to set a shutterspeed where the camera should switch to another shutter mode.

If you're fighting for light with the 11-22mm you're at least as slow as 1/30th. If I could set the camera to automatically switch to electronic shutter in that mode the "problem" would be solved for me.

I also would love to have a setting on the R5 to switch to full mechanical from 1/800th and up, staying at EFCS below that shutterspeed. It would be heaven if it would switch to full mechanical if there's BOTH a shutterspeed faster than 1/800th AND an aperture wider than f/2.2, but I would be completely satisfied by checking the shutterspeed only.

Without this setting I forget sometimes to babysit the shuttermodes myself, ending up with (relatively) blurry pictures at slower pictures with the EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L USM mkII and the Tamron 17-35mm f/2.8-4.0, and also with cut of bokeh with the 40mm & 105mm Art.

Note: These are all amongst the very first world problems. Next thing I do is jump in my car to find a spot to go shooting at landscape apertures and fast shutterspeeds looking for other "problems"

Not to bring up a sore subject; has anyone done any dynamic range testing in e-shutter vs mechanical? I suspect there is a penalty. I personally wouldn't use e-shutter for example, on a 11-22 on a landscape, unless I'd already taken a shot with mech, first, and then cull both after the fact to see if resolution or dynamic range is preferable.

The 1DX Mark III and EOS R5, for example, loose a full stop of DR, when e-shutter is employed.

This is new for me. Thanks.

Wouldn't know why the M6 II would be exempt from some penalty too, this just hasn't been examined, to my knowledge.

I can now myself (now that I have a M6 II, again), but it's probably better from someone with a copy of Imatest, or whatever benchmark software is used for that.
