You need to go into the custom functions area of the settings and "enable" "release shutter w/o lens attached". By default, the camera is set to prohibit shutter release if it does not detect a lens. You will need to be in P, Tv, Av, or M mode for this area of the menu to be visible.

nnowak,

Thank you ever so much. The camera now works with 3rd party lenses. In all probability, the first EOS-M3 that I returned was probably OK, and it was less money. You were a big help.
