Sorry I dropped the "D" !

Tethered shooting is not allowed, and Live View through the computer screen is also not allowed.

I was also very interrested in buying this camera for astrophotography to replace my Rebel XS. No Liveview and no remote capture facility is definitely a showstopper for me. I don't know if anyone...

The bad news is that despite the specs and the preliminary annouces of Canon, tethered shooting IS NOT possible with the EOS M. Hopefully, the solution may come from Magic Lantern. Canon does'nt...

This SLR is of no use in astro-photography :

Remote Capture is impossible with it !

That's crazy for such an expensive camera.

That's very constructive ! Thanks !

(read this as irony)

It should be worth treating such long exposures as the astronomy photographers do, by substracting a "dark" and dividing by a "flat" master images. The noise will drop down dramatically and the...

It seems that in Bulb mode, you can only select 400 ISO. However it should be possible to remote control the M from the EOS Utilities' Remote Capture tool.

For the batteries, it usually takes a...

The µ4/3 sensors are 17.3 mm × 13.0 mm in size compared to the 22.2 mm x 14.5 mm APS-C. This is about 40% less in surface. That's a lot !

For the same number of MPixels, an APS-C will have bigger...

There is definitely NO REASON to buy that kind of camera because it is FAR TOO MUCH EXPENSIVE.

A G1X will do the job for less, with only advantages :
- integrated flash
- orientable screen
- small...

I hope they will sell it bare, without anything (no lens, no flash), just the body.

... seen on Canon Canada : when using the Bulb mode, only the 400 ISO gain can be used.

Is it also valid when using Remote Capture ?

Some questions about the use of the EOS M with EOS Utility:
1) will it be possible to do remote shooting?
2) will it be possible to get Bulb with very long exposures (say 10 minutes or more - this...

This camera has a big potential for astrophotography. It is light weight, has a short flange to sensor depth, and a reasonably sensor. But to shoot astrophotos, we need to be able to operate the...
