  • Abstract:  Here's an attractive idea: An 18-megapixel camera from Canon with interchangeable lenses, with a body that still fits into a jacket pocket. Add its reasonable $339 price point into the mix, and the Canon EOS M becomes a very interesting option for anyone ...

  • Abstract:  Stereo microphones also appear on the top deck of the EOS M, marked by seven holes each; a stereo microphone jack is also built in, available on the camera's left side. A simple power button is well-placed as the top deck begins to slope toward the rear o...

  • Abstract:  After a long wait, considering that Canon announced their first CSC camera a long time ago, we've received Canon EOS M for testing. Considering that all of the big names in the world of camera production presented their own visions of CSC cameras, Canon h...

  • With a very nice touch screen, a well-designed body, and excellent photo quality, the Canon EOS M has some attractive qualities
  • Seriously poor autofocus performance and battery life detract from the overall package
  • While it provides one of the best touch-screen experiences in its class and the compact body is quite comfortable to shoot with, the Canon EOS M's disappointing performance and blah feature set make it less attractive than competitors.

  • Sharp images. Good high ISO performance. Compact body. Responsive touch screen. 1080p video recording.
  • Very slow to start. Lethargic autofocus. No flash. No EVF option. Limited native lens library
  • The EOS M, Canon's first compact interchangeable lens camera, feels polished on the outside, but its poor performance makes it clear that you're looking at a first-generation product....

  • No. Canons effort on the EOS M buttresses those frustrated users who believe that their beloved brand is focusing more on protecting their markets than they are on innovating. The M is just too safe and too boring in a time when other companies are pushi...

  • After using this camera, I had very mixed feelings about what to conclude and what to recommend. Obviously, this is through the prism of my personal usage and experience, but if I had to sum it up, I would say that you should hold off buying this camera u...
