The positive surprise
4

Shooting full format otherwise, I was looking for the highest quality compact cam for travel.
Now with the new firmware update the EF-M 18-55 is actually very ok AF speed wise, and the 22mm is still very usable.

Will never be a sports cam, but perfect for street/landscape/macro/portraits while on the run.
Truly awesome usability/interface considering the real estate available.
Excellent image quality, and IMHO best pancake on the market.
Adding the EF-M adapter, I have a perfect travel extension to my Canon FF DSLR
