Re: Is EF-M mount worth investing for a new user

I'm looking at a canon m3 from 2015. I can get it new and even comes bundled with a wide lens and telephoto zoom lens. All this for $400.

If you ask me is it worth investing? I'd say absolutely.

I also love the built quality of this era where it uses magnesium alloy, a lot of cameras these days are more plasticky feeling. And as others have pointed out, they love the tilting screen (I do too, not really a big fan of the fully articulating screen on a lot of cameras these days).

And last thing about canon and I don't really see it mentioned anywhere is they really have the simplest menu system compared to other cameras.

As someone who wants to get his hands dirty into his first apsc, if you compare the price with any new apsc on the market, the body alone can be $700, the lenses another $230 onwards.
