I was really interested by in the xm-1 + 27mm as part of a kit, but I think the $799 price is still too much. My plan was to make the xm-1 and 27mm my new compact camera but the price and also not being availalbe together killed that idea.

So today I jumped on the canon eos m + 22mm f2 kit deal, at $299 it was a no brainer for what I plan to use the camera for, getting a 35mm f2 and great video in something pocketable was a huge draw, especially after the recent canon af firmware update.

I hear that, but I just can't do another camera system.  Trying to stay disciplined and really learn how to squeeze the best out of Fuji.

Still, $299 is very tempting.

That's why I wanted teh xm-1 to work out so much, I really wanted to have the single system.  But now I essentailly view the eos m as a fixed lens compact, that's partially how I justifyed the purchase, the price was a huge factor since it fit my want of apsc sensor, as small as possible, 28-40mm focal length.
