I'm going to keep using a pair of M6ii bodies for now. Mostly with an Atomos Ninja V to get efficient h.265 hevc recordings. The Sony FX30 looks like an interesting upgrade path, but expensive.

I sold off the two M50 bodies and some of the lenses I had double coverage with. Down to the 11-22, 22 f/2, Sigma 16, Sigma 56, and Viltrox 33. Also sold all of my EF glass. Kind of a slow "see ya" to Canon at this point. The way Canon's cheaper RF lenses focus/breath (similar to the EF-M 32mm and 22mm) isn't great for video and they are currently blocking 3rd party lenses. The R7 has it's benefits but rolling shutter in pixel binned 4k mode only matches the FX30 when it's down sampling 6k.. for not a huge amount less money. The R7's benefits over the M6ii doesn't feel like enough to justify the switch.

I also use the M6ii for photos when I want something relatively small. The reason I kept the 22mm f/2 for sure.
