I would think that the most economic choice would be to get M200 or M50 mk II.

My 2015 M3 is perfect working order but I feel much better knowing that I have also M6 from 2017 and M6 mk II from 2022.

Thank You for your reply.

Something useful has come out of this threat.

Mr Vrdpr, an expert, was kind enough to make a contribution to this threat and solve the mystery.

Mr Kegg was kind enough to reply to me. I believe he solved the mystery why camera died.

"I suspect when you turned on the ultrasonic cleaning feature, the camera quickly pulled a burst of current which might have destroyed a component that was near failing after having been "stressed" by years of normal use.

"

A quick burst of current fried something inside the camera.

Eos-m users beware.

Thank You again
