Yea, I'm keen for the high resolution model, but likely too broke to buy it (until I justify it to myself). My 5D IV is delivering what it needs to, but I sure would love some extra cropping power.
How do you like your M6II? I've been toying with the idea of creating an ultra light camera setup for landscape photography on longer backpacking trips, and the M6II is close to the top of my list. No mater how I tinker with my 5D IV setup, I'm struggling to reduce weight down to a place where I'm really satisfied with both lens range I can carry vs weight. M6II is really appealing because it offloads a lot of stuff I don't really use (including the viewfinder), but I'm a bit hesitant because I'm not sure of the lens quality... How do you like the M6II?
I love the M6II. I bought it primarily for the purpose you just mentioned (light travel kit) but frankly I find I'm shooting it far more than I did (or do) shoot my 5DIV. I take it with me on a walk nearly every day. Now lens choices...
I got the 18-150 kit, and the 18-150 is on a shelf... not impressed with the image quality I got out of it ALTHOUGH it is better than not having one and can be made to work. I'm just accustomed to shooting Zeiss glass so I guess I'm a little spoiled by that.
I have both the Sigma 56 and the 30mm contempary primes for EF-M and I like them both. They are not quite as small as the EFM lenses but the quality is very good, very satisfied with them both.
The EF-M 11-22 is a keeper as well. I think IQ could be a tad better but it isn't bad at all and visibly superior to the 18-150 so that one remains a part of the kit.
The EF-M 22 is another gem, nice and sharp and SMALL...definite keeper.
The only hole I have for a light travel kit is the telephoto zoom. More than likely I will opt for an EF or EFS 55-200 or 250. I haven't evaluated either yet from a quality standpoint but I think they are supposed to be better than the 18-150 (hard to find direct comparisons). Outside of that it will be the 11-22, the Sigma 30, and whatever I decide on the telephoto zoom. That will be a tidy kit for work travel, or extended backpacking.
Daily however, I find myself shooting the Sigma primes (56 mainly), an adapted Zeiss 135 APO which is a dream but is manual focus of course, 180mmL macro, and a 100-400L v1 from time to time.
With good light the image quality is right up there, plenty of highlight recovery and the low light noise isn't too bad. It isn't as good as the 5DIV but it's better than I ever expected it would be...and so far I haven't seen any banding at all. Good light I can shoot up to ISO 6400 if needed and be pretty happy. While I haven't done an extensive amount of landscape work with it yet... I'm confident it will get me good images.
btw - I haven't taken the EVF off the camera in quite some time, I find it pretty good.
