    Canon EOS M Series Cameras

    I see you can pick these up with the kit zoom lens now for under £500 after the cash back. Absolute bargain!

    Canon EOS M Series Cameras

    Now I've been playing with it for a couple of weeks I just wanted to address the comments about autofocus speed. Do I feel that it is slow? No, not at all. Yes it's slower that the 7D with a 17-40mm L lens but not so slow as to be something I feel lets the camera down. In good light, I feel the...

    Canon EOS M Series Cameras

    Finally got to collect my EOS M kit yesterday. Am absolutely chuffed to bits. Really impressed with this superb quality little bit of kit.

    EF70-200 F4L owners...Canon tripod mount ring???

    The Canon one is metal and very well made. I managed to get a new Canon one for £50. Not sure I'd want to risk putting my 7D and a 70-200 IS lens on a cheap copy to be honest...

    I actually went one better and picked one up and took some photos with it. And no, the focus did not feel slow to me.

    Canon EOS M Series Cameras

    Personally I think there is a big difference between a 1.6 x and a 2 x crop factor. And for the record, I didn't feel that the auto focus was slow. no VF means the camera can be made as small as possible which one of the things I am after yet still maintaining EF compatibility for the...

    Aperture control as well? ;) Shame the micro 4/3 crop would make most of them fairly redundant. I think I'm going to carry on doing what I've been doing for the last 25 years and I'm going to stick with Canon as this will be used mostly as a travel camera but a nice little back up to the...

    How well will the Olympus OMD work with all my EF lenses? ;-)

    Canon EOS M Series Cameras

    Well I've just had a play with one in T5, Heathrow and I have to say I was really really impressed. I was expecting terrible things with the focus speed but it turned out much faster than I'd have hoped for. It really is quite tiny but it oozes quality. Especially the little dial on the back...

    Canon EOS M Series Cameras

    Really glad to hear some positive views about this camera at last. Still waiting for my local camera shop to receive stocks of the kit with the 22mm lens and EF adapter.

    Canon EOS M Series Cameras

    Well that's annoying. I went to pick mine up but the store I had ordered mine from had only received the EOS M and 18-55mm lens kits and I am waiting for the kit with the 22mm and the EF adapter. Oh well, a few more weeks of waiting isn't going to hurt I guess!

    Rod.F - was it a final production camera you played with or one of the demo units that have been around for the last couple of months?
