Re: M200 vs M6 II for video

Yes, you get dual pixel video autofocus in 4k with the M6ii compared to contrast based (plus a severe crop) with all of the other EF-M cameras like the M200. The downside of the M6ii is that it's not as detailed in 4k as other cameras due to it "pixel binning" but I've found it to be a nice quality improvement over 1080p, in general.

One thing to take note of with 4k is that it uses a lot of file space in h.264 encoding at whatever bitrate they use. Just be ready for it with storage. None of the EF-M cameras have more efficient codecs. The only way to get around it is to use a HDMI recorder, but that's an expensive solution.
