Hello,
I was this days playing a lot with the M6II and while some of my photos were perfectly focused with the 22mm, some of them were not so good.
I am not sure what is the best mode to set the autofocus and how to do it properly.
Do you know any guide/video/tutorial about how to correctly setup the focus and how to properly take photos with this camera? If not, could you give me some tips?
Spot AF with Servo delivers for everything. Nearly a 100% keeper rate!

Thank you for the answers! I was testing and I do not know if something is misconfigured or there is some step that I am not doing.
I set Spot AF and Servo AF. Then focus point is now in the center of the screen (I use the EVF to take photos), I point in the center to the place I want to focus and then reframe the photo but the focus point is in the center so I lose the focus.
Is there anything that I am not doing correctly?
If you are using the (old?) reframing technique, you should not use Servo AF. Use One Shot instead. (And turn off continuous focus in the menu.)
When you are using Servo AF you should always keep the focus point over the subject that you want to have in focus.
Yes I use the "old" but being sincere, I do not know the new
How is the new technique using the Servo?
=> Frame your shot right to taste and touch the spot where you would like to have the main focus area.
