Shoot MAC. You know the M6ii can sing with ANY lens I put on it. Even the lowly 15-45.

In fact, here’s the kit lens on the much maligned (for its AF) M5! And this wasn’t even my “good” copy…

M5 + EF-M 15-45 kit lens. Mountain bikers off an 8 foot drop, and moving much faster than I would ever care to!

Crazy!

Me, I’ll continue to use the 15-45 wherever a 24-70 equiv is appropriate. And love it.

Sing on baby!

I am not sure what you are trying to show with these photos, but everything is blurry. The ridiculously small file sizes, ranging from 0.6 MP to 1.2MP, certainly are not helping with any perception of sharpness.  Looking at the aspect ratios, these files were cropped, but were they cropped all of the way from 24MP, or were they also downsized a ton too?

I am not sure why AF even mattered for these photos. Even if you were only 10 feet away from your subjects, your Depth of Field would be massive at 15mm and f/4.0. Manual pre-focus would have easily worked.
