Canon EOS M review: Firmware update finally makes this mirrorless camera"s ...



Late to a mirrorless camera game, a Canon EOS M wasn’t a large strike during launch — essentially due to reports of a freezing autofocus speeds. (Something we detected here during IR immediately.) Due to what was deliberate a deadly flaw, a camera was mostly abandoned until recently when Canon finally addressed a AF emanate with a much-anticipated firmware update. We’re happy to news that this refurbish did in fact considerably urge a EOS M’s speed, shred an normal of a half a second off a single-shot autofocusing times. While it’s still not as quick as many other compress complement cameras, it brought a Canon EOS M behind to a excusable operation — and behind to life in a minds of photographers.



Up to this point, direct had been so low for a EOS M that a pack cost forsaken from an MSRP of US$800 during launch in Oct 2012, down to as low as US$300 in new weeks. That cost positively creates adult for a lot of shortcomings, and focuses courtesy behind on what a camera does good — take good cinema and videos.




The Canon EOS M’s 18-megapixel, APS-C-type sensor delivers still images that opposition those of a manufacturer’s Rebel T4i, T5i and SL1 DSLRs. And a camera has some critical video skills, too, charity Full HD 1080p recording with stereo audio, and primer film control over aperture, shiver speed, ISO and more. Meanwhile, dual really good pack lenses — a 22mm primary and 18-55mm wizz — both underline STM (stepping motor) AF for really wordless operation while filming.



Add those positives to a EOS M’s solid, compress build and neat pattern — and a fact that a camera can be blending to accept other Canon EF / EF-S lenses — and it becomes a really viable choice for Canon DSLR owners looking for a second, some-more unstable physique but carrying to change systems.




However, along with a still-slow AF comes a few other missed opportunities — many notably, a EOS M’s miss of a built-in peep and electronic viewfinder, a heavier faith on touchscreen navigation and settings preference (there are no Program, Priority, or Manual modes on a Mode dial!), and bad battery life. Potential Canon EOS M buyers will have to import these negatives opposite a positives to establish if a camera is right for them.
