I have the RP and have been waiting for something like the M6 mark II with IBIS for all my old cropped lenses. I am not really sure if Canon will ever release such a camera in the future, maybe I should just sell my RP and go for the R5 instead?
I have Canon EOS M200 Great vlogging camera! Compact, so easy to use and excellent video quality. No issues and have shot continuous video for 20-30 minutes at a time.
In for one! Not an amazing deal, but I've got a couple hundred in Amazon gift cards and already own a bunch of EF-M lenses so I can sell the one it comes with. Deal will work out well for me.

Although I love my m6 mark ii the compactness affordable lens, I got the RP so I can get into RF system possibly upgrade the body in the future either R5/6 or RP mark ii. But for M system I don't know if there will be any new lens or body.

This is around the Black Friday price where I got mine last year. Been a great camera (especially for video with the side-hinge flip monitor touchscreen).
You do have to work a bit at some things. The SD card is in the bottom compartment with the battery so either the sd card or battery needing to be swapped requires taking the camera off the tripod.
Unfortunately no clean hdmi output while using autofocus (you will see the focus boxes), so if you want to do a screen capture video setup with OBS you'll need to go to manual focus mode or run the signal through the free canon software (some good YT tutorials on this).
Also no usb charging so you have to keep swapping batteries or get an AC power adapter with a dummy battery for the camera).
The canon 22mm (recently on sale for ~$160) and the sigma lenses are awesome for the price.
I know it is not exceptional but how has the 4k experience been using this camera?
Most people recommend against shooting 4k with this unless you're stabilized on a tripod. First, the 4k has a crop. Second, 4k doesn't use Dual Pixel AF and falls back to the much slower contrast AF.
The only EF-M camera I'm aware of that doesn't have those weaknesses for 4k is the M6 Mark II.
