Canon EOS M Compact System Camera -Black- Body Only

• This camera is an unbelievable deal. I have a hard time finding any downsides to buying this camera over the 7d, 60d, txi series Canon cameras. I am a video producer who loves to get great quality video with as little gear to carry as possible.The upsides are fantastic: smaller form factor which opens up a much higher range of gear that you can use. Simple adapters to fit not only EF lenses but the cheaper yet awesome quality FD/FL lenses as well, with only a little increase in crop factor and no vignetting around the edges, unlike the Canon EF mount cameras that are not mirrorless. (I have the adapter and am loving my Canon FD 1.4 50mm.) The lenses (EF-M) that are available for this camera are fantastic quality, I have seen some beautiful photos taken with the 22mm and have heard that the standard kit lens is an improvement over other Canon kit lenses as well. It has the same sensor as those cameras which can be 5x more expensive! It gets the same fantastic HD Video.I pulled out the old 7d yesterday for a video shoot and after using the EOS-Ms for the past couple of weeks I couldn\'t believe how bulky and cumbersome the 7d is.It has a touch screen, which is very snappy and sometimes more intuitive than the switches. You can install a special Magic Lantern on these cameras for touch screens. (If you don\'t know about Magic Lantern make sure to search the internet because this is the number one thing you are missing out on)The downsides are slight: since it uses a SD card as opposed to a CF card it does have a little bit of a bottleneck in terms of how much data it can write to the card. If you are using Magic Lantern this means that RAW video and increased data rates will most likely not be possible, whereas the full frame 5ds are very hopeful to achieve this. Less physical buttons may be bothersome to some people, not to me. Lack of flash might be a problem, I personally couldn\'t care less since my main purpose is video. The battery doesn\'t last as long as those larger, bulkier, cameras.When I tell people about this camera they are blown away at the amount of features compared to the price. You get the same great image quality as the more than 1,400$ Canons at a fraction of the price PLUS it has features which they don\'t. Its hard to believe, but its that good.Enjoy!
• I happened to log on one day, and saw this camera was down to $249. I\'ve been needing to upgrade my camera for quite a while now (i still have a Canon 20D that I got in Nov 2004). I do still intend to get another dSLR, however I have to say that I\'ve not been disappointed with the EOS-M so far. Not having an EVF to look through is a little bit disappointing, and composing everything on the screen takes some getting used to (especially in bright sunlight), but it doesn\'t really take away from the quality of the shots that can be captured with this camera. Obviously I\'ve read all the reviews about the autofocus problems, and I have to admit that there have been a few frustrating instances where it just wouldn\'t focus (in daylight with a Canon 70-200 F4L). I had to switch the lens to manual, make an adjustment for where I wanted it to focus, then when I switched back to autofocus it usually works. This isn\'t really as much of a deal breaker as you might think though. I\'ve had plenty of times with my 20D where I thought I had some good shots, only to get home to the computer and discovered that I\'d missed the focus (sometimes just by a hair, but sometimes that\'s enough). The difference with the EOS-M is that the screen is really good. I can zoom into a picture I\'ve just taken and tell right away whether it\'s likely to be worth keeping. In just the couple of weeks that I\'ve owned the camera I have already captured some very good sharp images of birds with Sigma lens at 500mm. When it does focus, it does just fine, and the quality is excellent.If I\'m totally honest, if this cameras was still $800 like it was when it first came out, I would definitely be looking at a 60D or even T4i instead. But for $249 +$59 for the Fotodiox lens adapter (which works really well) this was just too good of a camera to pass up.
• I wrote a very upset review of this camera when i turned it on. The firmware page in the menu was not there. The version of this camera i got was in beautiful condition, it looks new. I was so upset when this did not show the firmware page under the fourth wrench. A google search took me to DPreview forum. It was here i found how to access the firmware change. I had already downloaded the new version of the firmware, i just did not know how to install it. My camera bought on Amazon had firmware version 1.0 i think. When i put the memory card with new version in camera and installed it, the menu changed. I smiled.
