EOS M6

I might get roasted, I might get upvoted… but here we go. Wait until you have a little more budget. I was in a similar situation a couple years ago. I bought a Canon M6 mk2 with an adapter for ef lenses. The M6 is part of Canon’s initial mirrorless line. It lacks many of the features of the R series

The ‘go to’ bird starter pack these days sees to be something like a used Canon R50 or R100 plus the Canon RF 100-400, which gets you a reach of about 640mm due to the crop sensor on those cameras. However even with used prices you’re over $1,000 easily. I’m using a Canon M6 MK II along with a Sigma

I tried a similar combo on the M6, but with a 2x canon converter. It looks mahoosive. Size doesn't really matter if you have the optional tripod mount I see there. Some IQ loss but it works reasonably well. AF is slow at first but consistent. I was just curious to try it out as I knew it was never a

Good sooc jpegs is the main factor that gets cameras overpriced, you're gonna have to be creative. I have some recs Mirrorless cameras: Canon eos m6 / m100 / m200 etc.: Small, great autofocus (look only for canon cameras with dual pixel af). The thing with canons of that era is that they have a very

I'm using a Sigma 100-400 C lens with my Canon M6 MK II for kids sports and light birding. It works like a charm using a simple EF to M adapter. (The Canon branded one, which is just a spacer with an electronics pass through.) I can attest that focus is snappy and responsive.

I use a Sigma EF 100-400mm contemporary on my Canon M6 MK2. With the crop it’s a 640mm reach. It’s not expensive, and can be found from places like Keh for $800. It’s literally half the price of the Canon 100-400mm. I use mine for light birding and children’s sports. It’s a decent size, light weight

Ha, for sure. I'm always happy to vomit out what camera knowledge that I have. I often tell my spouse that I'm a deep well of completely useless information, but occasionally that comes in handy. I'm a big fan of the M system, and really like my M6 MK II. I get WHY Canon ditched the EF and M camera

My Old Canon EOS-M with a 22 f/2 lens. If I were to replace it today, might go with an m200 which is a similar form factor but much more capable. Or an M6 mark i which is 3mm wider and 2mm taller but thicker with a better grip. Both of these have improved autofocus and a flip up screen.
