I think you are spot on for AF...the M5 being incredibly fast and accurate compared to the 6D.
The two will make a great Hansel and Gretel.

The two will make a great Hansel and Gretel. Just my opinion but I feel that some lenses may appear sharper on a mirrorless body simply due to the AF being spot on and no miscalculations.

Played with that specifically and it won't be an issue. I like the menu system since i'm a Canon guy and it's very familiar. Now, we need to start the i-G12 Fund to finance the purchase.  Gonna have to save up my money and maybe by then there will be a small price reduction. ::fingers_crossed: Great decision, but I love all cameras despite each one's flaws. I'm just currently bummed with our weather and minimal shooting opportunities. There's always macro inside I suppose. flickr

PhotosByDlee Cream of the Crop More info | Jan 06, 2017 21:49 | #219 So I just read that the max flash sync speed on the M5 is 1/200th. It's not the 1/250th I would like, but more manageable than my 6D's annoying 1/180th.

Jan 09, 2017 08:18 | #223 I am generally pleased with the M5 but I find that indoors under artificial light it struggles to focus sometimes. It will focus, then unfocus and come up with the red exclamation mark. It's really annoying and the same on all except the 22/2. In good light it is a great camera, but then all cameras are great in great light.
