OK - let's see if I can follow what you're saying....

...You see, you post in bits and pieces, meaning like incomplete thoughts, so trying to figure out what you're trying to say is a bit difficult.

I think you were asking about the EOS-M picture quality, if I'm not mistaken (correct me here).  OK, previously I had never even considered getting the EOS-M.  After all, weren't there enough mirrorless cameras on the market!  But then I saw a few photos - taken by some pros that had me turning my head also.  So I went to the local Mom and Pop camera store (yes, they still have a few of 'em left) and started playing with it.  Well, I was hooked, so I picked one up.  At the time the AF was a bit slow, but Canon's latest firmware update 2.02 really fixed all of that...and then some.

It's hard to imagine a camera that small with a DSLR-sized 18 MP sensor in it.  The kit 18-55 lens is built like a tank (all metal) and has superb optics (well, at least my copy).  The color tonality of that camera is typical Canon - that is rich with a nice tonality.  High ISO capabilities are nice also.  I'm glad that I picked it up and it was a welcomed addition to my collection.  I strongly suggest to anyone (now-a-days) that if you can still find them at the blow-out prices (check Amazon, Adorama, or B&H) where they sell the EOS-M with 22 MM prime for only $299, or the EOS-M with 18-55 zoom for $349 - to jump on it without second thought.  At those prices, this photographic instrument with optics is a masterpiece - a steal, really.

As I mentioned in an earlier reply, I can take just about any camera and get very good results with it.  You just have to learn the camera - it's strengths and weaknesses, and then work to their favor.  So I'm delighted with all that I currently have.  And I'm certainly looking forward to adding the NX300 (which I ordered yesterday).
