Owned/Used Both the M5 and M50-2?

I think you might have missed what I was saying.

Rolling shutter is when objects become distorted because they are moving quickly as the sensor is read line by line. Typically vertical lines will become swept diagonally or rotating objects (like a fan or helicopter blades) will appear as odd shapes.

Yes; at high magnification, there is visibly less rolling shutter on the M6II. We are talking the same thing. That said rolling shutter is a symptom of slower sensor readout, which also impacts refresh. It’s less problematic on the newer sensor.

I should add that should be obvious as 4K rolling shutter on the M50s is awful, vs the M6II it’s not. I’m not sure why we’re picking this one to death since it’s kinda obvious the two would be connected (magnified refresh performance and 4K refresh and performance).

All to say, manual focus aides on the M6II are surprising better than the M5/M50s. This is due to the sensor, not software/processor.

Focus peaking and magnification works better on the M6II; less rolling shutter.

That line doesn't make sense because it implies that rolling shutter is a factor in live view for the other cameras. I have trouble detecting that at all on the m50 even if I actively try to induce it. Perhaps you meant a different term or your camera behaves differently.

I'm not talking about motion blur, refresh rate, latency, image quality, etc.; those are different topics. I'm also not trying to argue something silly like "which is the better camera".

It may seem to be an oxymoron to capture moving subjects with a manual focus lens, however I can tell you as someone who's gotten the hang of it, it can be done with some measure of success.

It does not seem like an oxymoron at all. I learned photography on pre-automation film cameras. How do you think people took pictures before AF? (That's a rhetorical question )
