Same here!I bought the R6 and R6 ii and sold them both very quickly to return to my 5d4. Can't justify the price for this mostly amateur until there are some improvements.
I really like the R6 ii results and autofocus but what I missed is the evf resolution and the top plate display. I really hope the R6 iii has these, for me it's not missing anything else.
The R3 evf is amazing, and I don't miss the absence of the optical too much, but the r62/r62 always seem pixelated to me due to exceptional eyesight.
I notice Nikon has a basic top plate display on its competing models while Sony has nothing like it on any model. For me, I will wait until I can afford the r5ii but if R6 iii increases evf resolution and adds ability of option 6 for the LCD screen, then I will gladly buy one new.
I'd probably also buy the new 35mm L lens in preference to the R5 upgrade, as the EF version feels front heavy with an adaptor on the smaller bodies imo.
I too didn't like the R6 and R6 II's EVF. I also bitterly missed the top LCD. Otherwise, the R6 II is an excellent camera, providing more detailed pictures than the 5D IV. And its AF is classes better than the 5D's.
But the R5 is a different story, EVF almost as good as an optical one, plus all the usual EVF advantages, and they do matter.
