Canon EOS M6 Lens Kit

• I got the M6 as a replacement for my old Canon T2i. It is indeed much smaller, which matters to me. In one of the photos I uploaded you see a Canon Point & Shoot, the mirrorless M6, and the T2i DSLR in comparison. It\'s great to have more functionality in a smaller volume. The old DSLR with case was a big cube that barely fitted into my backpack, together with other stuff.Much has been said about this camera in reviews already. It\'s light, quick to deploy, and has wireless and bluetooth functionality. I like the fact that it doesn\'t waste space on a built-in viewfinder. I only used live view on my DSLR anyway. (A viewfinder on a mirrorless camera is a contradiction in concept anyway.)I take my camera to rough field locations, and so far it has held up. The M6 is rather sturdy and has a right-hand grip, although I would have preferred an even bigger grip. The LCD screen looks a bit fragile and prone to scratching, but it has survived so far. Although the M6 has a touch screen, the camera is loaded with mechanical buttons and dials. The ring around the power button moves. The exposure compensation dial looks cool, but I\'m not planning on using it. These mechanical controls will become handy when working with gloves.The 15-45mm focal range of the kit lens is a better match for my landscape and nature photography than the 18-55mm was. I often had trouble fitting the scene into a single frame. After a few years of use, I have to say that I am not a fan of retractable lenses, because it takes extra time to get ready for a shot. That said, the compact measures are nice too.The second photo I uploaded shows the small M6 with a giant LumoPro flash. I call it the Beauty and the Beast.UPDATE Sep 2018:Connecting the camera with the cell phone was not straightforward. The instructions in the manual are not really sufficient, because there are many options that result in a big decision tree. I finally figured it out by trial-and-error, and now I can remotely operate the camera with the Camera Connect app.What good is a compact camera, if one doesn\'t have a compact bag for it? The best case I have come across so far for this camera is this Vintage Camera Case from Platinum (pt):https://www.amazon.com/Platinum-Vintage-Camera-Green-Brown/dp/B01GV6FVQY/The M6 with the 15-45mm kit lens fits in it sideways. Although the bag is still slightly too big, it is a better fit than several other similarly-sized camera cases I have tried. I\'m still looking for the perfect bag though.UPDATE Nov 2020: Made some edits in the text above. I have also come to appreciate the electronic level that can be displayed.
• I\'ve been using Canon equipment for decades. I am a photo \'enthusiast\' but hardly a pro-style photog. I have used various film cameras, several Canon Rebels, EOS 7D mark 1 and mark 2 plus several \'L\' lenses. All that time, I\'ve been searching for the perfect travel camera -- I don\'t think it exists. I\'ve used many small digital snappers including the Sony RX100-II, which took nice photos but was maddeningly fussy to hold and use, as well as the Fuji XT100 (great camera but fixed 40mm-equiv lens).I travel internationally at least once every year. In the past, I\'ve taken along a digital body and a couple of lenses but that got old quickly--too much weight to lug around. However, smaller cameras do not produce high quality photos, except for the Fuji and Sony.Then, along comes the EOS M5 and M6. I was reluctant to take the plunge due to slow-focusing issues I\'d read about. I wanted the smallest possible camera but very high quality. Then, I read that the M6 has a nearly identical APS-C sensor to the new 80D - which has even better dynamic range than my 7D Mii. Then, I thought \"but it doesn\'t have a viewfinder.\" Well, heck, I take photos all the time with my phone. So, I ordered the M6 with the 15-45 kit lens. I took many test photos. The camera is very easy to work with and I was pleased with the results. Compared to my previous Canon glass, M-lenses are tiny, but they\'re sharp. Plus, any small faults can be corrected in software. I don\'t really miss the viewfinder but there is one available to attach to the hot shoe. The controls are intuitive and the touchscreen is a joy to use. Manual exposure is easy to dial in quickly.After using the camera for a couple of weeks, I ordered the M-22mm lens and the EOS lens adapter. I have a couple of older small kit lenses with longer zooms that work well on the M6. And I wanted the 22mm prime for night/low-light shots. The M lenses are so light and tiny they\'re super-easy to carry around. I\'m leaving in a few weeks for Japan and Korea and I\'m looking forward to putting this camera through its paces. Plus, it weighs only about one-fourth of my 7D with lens but is capable of similar high quality photographs.Minus 1 star for a slightly lazy exposure mechanism (not critical) and the awful strap--sorry, I hate Canon straps (replaced with a Peak Design).
• The media could not be loaded.  This camera so far is wonderful and probably my favorite investment yet. It\'s design is very clean and I love the classic look the silver gives. Canons focus system is amazing and works wonderfully on videos. I travel a lot and wanted a new camera to use while roadtripping. This camera is very light and small and it has yet to disappoint me. I did run into the con everyone with an external mic is having but solved it by using a straight flash bracket which wasn\'t a problem for me. I tested the camera out with little to no light and haven\'t found a better camera that takes as clear videos as this one during night. I\'ve attached a short sample from Fourth of July.
• Great little camera, I have the canon t7i and I love it but it\'s a bit big for traveling. Planning a trip to the Philippines I didn\'t want to lug around my 800d so I started looking for a option for a travel camera. I wanted one that is capable of taking the same quality pictures of my t7i or 800d. The m100 was my first choice but after Alot of thought I knew that I would want a camera with more external adjustments. The m6 has it all... Exept for a view finder .. but it\'s a sacrifice worth giving for a nice small travel camera that can take great quality pictures just like the full size crop sensor cameras.Adjustments are easy although the frame is small for a big handed guy like me. I\'m glad I didn\'t settle for the m100 i can see how it would be frustrating using a camera with no external iso, apeture, shutter speed adjustments. I love it..
