Taking my chance to shoot out this question. Rejoining the forum after almost a decade of being away from photography websites.

Now on the hunt for cropped body, coming from an 80D. I know the R7 has all the bells and whistles of the new Canon tech and hardware. Does not mean it's worth that much money compared to the really cute and capable M6 Mark 2 which I tried in the store over the weekend and found impressive for its size. Mostly I do take photos on foot, while doing a bit of hiking and occasionally from hillside locations, with a small tripod in a small backpack.

Or maybe I should invest in new tech like the R7 so I don't have to change it for the next 3-5 years?

I have gotten used to having 3 control dials on the body and a tilt screen.

Too bad I just do not like the swing out screens.

The M6II is a good tripod camera body too with a Sigma 56mm F1.4 or a Canon 32mm F1.4 things get so very sharp.

If you like advanced PP programs like DXO Photolab and like cool small tripods like I do then the small M6II is the way to go.

If you can handle problems like why is that photo blurry ? I used a fast shutter speed ?

Was it the lens IS ? Was it the IBIS ? Is there a firmware update for my lens ? Oh my !

If you get a R7 you might want to stick with RF and RF-s  glass.
