Yep. I'm happy. Very happy actually. I guess I am a pretty vanilla shooter so many of the issues are things I'd not normally see in 99% of my shooting. I primarily use P mode and Av mode. M on rare occasions. Things I like:

- resolution is amazing

- EVF is very handy. More so than I had hoped.

- speed for me is quick. On continuous shutter mode it fires much more quickly than the M.

- I like the grip. It's very handy. (Pun intended)

- interface is different, I will give that. It'll take some getting used to.

More re to learn over the coming weeks!

It's GOOD to hear from people who are enjoying the M3.

I've seen plenty of negatives posted in just the last three days so I've had a growing sense of dread, knowing that I've placed a deposit on the M3 but knowing that there are some legitimate gripes with this camera. I think a Firmware upgrade is extremely likely although in the past Canon have tended to wait around 6+ weeks after a camera's release before producing the Firmware upgrades.

Picture Quality would be the only serious deal-killer for me. And right now people are showing some very nice samples coming from this camera. The image quality on recent uploads here looks excellent.
