u should really give m6II with m32 a try

I’ve thought about going back.

u didn't have the m32 when you had the m6II

the m6II is about the m32 and primes

so it would not be going back but be going forward...

get a 16 and a 56 and run with the two m bodies and 4 primes (16,22, 32, 56)

critical mass-less

you'll not even need the R with that "mass-ive" 28-70

DXO PL5 with deep prime on m6II using F1.4 lenses obviates the need for the HEAVY R and F2

Assuming you are pairing the M50 II with the M6 II, your 2 body/4 lens kit comes in at 1821 grams compared to the R+28-70mm f/2.0 at 2090 grams. Lighter in the hand, but not really any lighter in the bag. Plus, a lot more juggling. Swapping the 28-70mm f/2.0 for the 24-70mm f/2.8 might make a bit more sense as it would knock 530 grams off of the R kit.

if money is no object ...

the 28 on that lens bugs me because I routinely needed 24 in my heyday
