When you need it compact with a zoom: Buy a compact with a fixed zoom lens!

This what Canon's CEO said, and I do agree.

When you want to use it with the EF adapter, buy a 100D/SL1.

M3 is great for street photography with 22mm attached. Image quality is fantastic, autofocus a lot better than M-Classic. I contacted canon with a question about focussing with a single autofocus point, as too often it focusses on the background.

it's compact with this lens, and fits in a small lowepro case on your belt.

Menu structure resembles G7x, which I don't like. M classic was more eos like. Though the touch screen is good, less items can be selected by touch compared to M-Classic.

For me, the M3 is an alternative to my 5D3 when it has to be compact and/or unobtrusive. Also the everyday camera. Is it perfect? No. But the M3 is not bad at all, and image quality is fantastic.

There is no such camera as an "M-Classic" and there is no need to make up silly names for cameras in an attempt at clarification. There is an M, M2, and M3. If you type "M", no one will assume you are talking about an M3, and vice versa.

Nice response. Obviously, someone kicked your kitty on this day.
