if they make RF-s glass on par with EF-s glass - I'm out.

I think you’re in luck, because it looks like they’re porting over the EF-M lenses (just with new RF bases).

If they give us M quality glass - I'll buy R7 because it would be the m5III I always wanted with m quality glass

Don’t know how many of those lenses they’ll give us though. Depends on how much they want to protect their higher end sales (we EF-M owners certainly know how Canon likes to maintain product line segmentation!!   ).

As far as bodies go, the R7 will definitely be more capable than the M6ii, but it’s also in an entirely different size class.  I plan to “permanently” mount my RF 100mm Macro to it (it should be a perfect fit for that   ).

Best of luck with your own quest!
