Verdictwhich should you buy?
EOS M6 Mark II — Portrait & Street: The M6 Mark II is the peak of the EF-M system — 32.5MP, 14fps, and Dual Pixel CMOS AF II in a compact rangefinder-style body. No built-in EVF is the main compromise, but the optional EVF-DC2 resolves this. An outstanding used-market buy for photographers who want high resolution and fast AF in a genuinely compact body.
EOS R10 — Beginners & Vlogging: Canon's most affordable RF body — Dual Pixel AF and a vari-angle screen in a compact, lightweight package.
