Re: Yes, they are wiping the M6ii off the face of the earth

I think the only reason they put a 32 MP sensor in an M body was they had made a bunch of sensors but were behind on developing the APS-C R bodies R7 and R10.

Canon did not bother to upgrade the processor to keep up with the extra data off the 32MP sensor so I always thought it was kind of clear Canon planned on it being a dead end. But a dang good one so I bought an M6II and I am glad I did.

But I think the plan was always that as soon the R7 got released, it was going to be goodbye to the M6II.

Makes sense. Now I am extremely tempted to get a refurb one before they are gone for good. GAS says yes, sense makes no đŸ˜‚
