Canon EOS M

The EOS M is a great walkabout camera. It is very versatile and the picture quality is superb. AF could be speedier, but is not an issue in the majority of the time. Touchscreen is wonderful and very quickly becomes second nature. The ability to attach EF lenses and the flash allowing external speedlites control is the icing on the cake.

The quality feel of this little canon is great. (Compared to the plastic NEX-5). The M-lenses are optically great too. I'm using the M with the 22mm as a pocketable alternative to my 5D mkIII . It's always with me, even at work. The other Canon alternative was the powershot G1x, but I do prefer the 18mp 2/3 sensor. Autofocus is sloooowww (but very accurate, even with 22mm at /f2.0). Autofocus point selection by touch works great. The touch screen is fantastic! The EF-M lens adapter works ad ...

My first impression of the Canon EOS M when I picked it up was wonderful, well built little camera, solid, strong, tight. then I started shooting with it and got a little frustrated with the focusing problems. The image quality is excellent...I love it. The video is very good. I know my expectation were really high after coming from a EOS Mark II. I knew it would have the and quality as the Mark II but it almost did. The video can't touch the Mark II but the image quality is close. All in ...

The EOS M is an extremely powerful camera capable of SLR level results, paired with the excellent EF-M 22mm lens (all I have a this point). Don't expect anything less than stellar results, with clean, noise free images up to ISO 1600, and even usable images at 6400. Certainly more usable than my 7D. However, you can only expect these results when you have TIME to focus. Chasing a small running child (as I do now daily) is a struggle in futility. What makes it harder still is the weird ...

I'm a hobbyist. I used Nikon during the film-era and shifted to Canon when I went digital. I started with 10D, 40D, 7D, 5DM2, and now 5DM3 and using all the most popular L zoom lenses and a select range of fixed prime lenses (35mm, 85mm, 100mm Macro II, 135mm, etc.). On days when I travel (and I travel a lot) when I cannot bring a DSLR (which is most of the time), I always have my Canon Powershot S100 in my briefcase. I have taken thousands of shots on my compacts (I also have an S95 prior to ...

This is my opinion and the previous reviewer also gave his opinion. I disagree with some of his opinions, but respect him for his comments. So I thought I needed to write this comment to balance things out. I have several Canon cameras from EOS 1000D to EOS 7D for Wildlife Photography and other EOS cameras. Also PowerShot Cameras, etc. I take street photography, portrait, landscape to wildlife (birds of prey and land wildlife). I bought my EOS M kit in mid-November and have done extensive ...

For the user who wants to carry less weight in the bag and or want to upgrade from a compact camera to a better quality image. One of the good points of this camera is the ape-c sensor plus the digic 5+ sensor that delivers a good resolution with outstanding image quality into a small package. I usually like to take snapshots with my 5d markii that is my main gear, but it's to heavy to carry around and scares people when doing street shooting photography. But with EOS-M is totally different, ...
