anubis2 • New Member • Posts: 22 M3 vs M6 ? Mar 23, 2018

Hi,

My trusty M3 has been stolen recently.  ...so I'm looking for a new camera!   I'm shooting mainly with manual lenses (barely used the 18-55m kit lens), so don't really care about the fancy/crippled AF.

Just wondering if the following have been improved with the M6:

- raw speed

- bracketing speed

- touchscreen; it was a bit cumbersome with the M3, have to press multiple time to get a valid click

- any other improvements for my manual obsession?

I'm looking at a body only package, I still have the M3's kit lens...

...any rumors for a M6 v2? or a next generation without the EVF?  ...just wondering how long can I wait without a camera?!?

The only pathetic things about Canon; they are constantly crippled the hardware with a non optimum firmware (e.g: M50), just to justify the higher price of there DSLR line.

Cheers,
