Yes, I owned, and still own the original M. I don't think the M6 is in any way lower quality or less robust. I have the M6 with the silver top. Maybe that's different? In any case, as I said, it's ...

Mine hasn't changed in the year I've had it. I like the feel of it, and the way the dials turn. I've also never noticed the strap lug bothering me. I suppose it's all a matter of subjective ...

Great shots. I don't see any fish, though. Were they inside the ducks?

Is yours the black or the silver? I have the silver, and find it to be very ruggedly built. Maybe they are different?

Thanks for letting us know. I've been losing sleep wondering what your requirements were.

Right. And if there had been a person in your Samsung shot, they would have been blurry. When I see low light shots of people, shot with phones, the people are invariably blurry.

The 7DII has had this for nearly four years. Best auto ISO implementation I've come across. You have a choice of setting the minimum shutter speed as an absolute value (e.g. 1/1000, 1/500, etc.) ...

It is a great lens, but it's totally not what the OP is looking for. First, he's already said he's not interested in a zoom, and that he wants a fast lens. Second, if you're going to get an ...

Yes, if you want faster than the 22 in roughly the same range, you need to get the 24L II, which is 7X the price, 6X the weight, and 4X the length (5X, once you add the extender), all for one stop ...

I'm also looking forward to it, but it's irrelevant to the OP's question. 32 on the M will give the same FOV as 51 on FF, which isn't anywhere remotely near the "roughly 35mm (in old money)" FOV ...

I think you are confusing the M lenses with your own judgment. Only one of those things sucks. Besides the excellent 22, the 11-22 is also really good (and small, and light, and has remarkably ...

I use zone focus with servo, and stick to fairly wide angles (mostly 18-35), so the DOF is certainly larger than what I'm getting with my 7DII with the 70-200 at F2.8. But I'm shooting the M6 ...

Just a quibble, but the dpr staff should know better. The kit lens is not 15-45mm equiv. It is 15-45mm. "Equiv." is used to indicate the equivalent field of view on a full frame camera. Given that...

It certainly disappointed the spec-obsessed, who just read about it. Strangely, it seems to be really satisfying to those that actually own it. Except, perhaps the most important, usability. Except ...

Thanks. Almost all my shots with the 18-150 were below about 70mm, and most of them were in the 18-35 range. Here's the only one I could find that's at 150mm. Not an action shot, I'm afraid: For ...

Thanks. I haven't tried the 70-200 on my M6 yet. It's pretty much permanently on my 7DII. I did us it, with the 2X extender, on my original M, to get partial eclipse shots. It worked fine. I had ...

I'm the club photographer our local running group (Boulder Road Runners), which puts on all-comers track meets every two weeks in the summer in Boulder. For the last couple of years, I've only ...

I remember reading that it's because of heat generated by the mirrorless cameras being in live view constantly. That produces a bit of extra noise. Presumably, if you used the 80D in live view all ...

Ooh, I'm a fanatic! Actually, that's pretty mild, coming from someone who thinks it's "criminal" that Canon hasn't implemented 4K in the M5 and 80D, that the contrast-detect AF on the Nikon D7500 ...

Apparently not.
