I got a chance to take the R6 mk2 for a spin yesterday and it is very nice but so far I’m not feeling compelled to upgrade my R6.  The AF seems a bit better, four more MP are nice to have but the difference from 20 isn’t exactly leaping out at me.  There are a lot of nice little things that are improved and if I didn’t already have an R6 the choice would be easy for me.  At this point my R6 easily qualifies as “well used” so resale value is going to be at the low end of the range.

Anyway, I was mostly photographing flying ducks and  the R6 mk2 did an excellent job.
