My only camera is a used Eos-m3 with the 18-55mm, a used 22mm and a used 50mm f1.8. I have used the camera in almost every imaginable photography genre. I have lost a few photos but all in all I am happy with the results. (even much more expensive cameras don't do always what you want). The colors are OK for me (jpegs since I don't want spend my time on pc). Only the red on flowers seems to "explode" but I am sure I could use a regulation for these occasions with better results (but I am not so fond change always the regulations) .

I love the colors, both M6es are much better but M3 has that something special which warrants keeping it around.

It's a small camera and very well made and strong. I have used it with bellow zero temperature, under rain (protected when not used under a plastic bag). The used battery is still strong. I don't like the eos system in these conditions, but the particular camera have done its job. Especially since I payed 320 dollars 4 years ago for camera and the 18-55mm. Under "18-55mm photos" you can see few of mines. If there is something that I definitely would like on this camera, that would be a silent shutter (for the street photography).
