Canon EOS M Camera

Canon EOS M


You might wonder what does Canon EOS M Camera has to do with this blog. Now Canon SX50 or any other bridge camera comes with huge inbuilt lens so those cameras really don't need external big lenses. Also you can't fix a big external interchangeable lens to a Canon SX50 HS even if you want. These cameras are not built for that. I highly doubt they will do that even in their next model which would be Canon SX60 HS camera which is due to release in this year. What if you want a compact size point and shoot camera which also can take those big lenses ? Canon Now has a solution for that too. Yes now you can do it with Canon EOS M.



There are 2 things you might want to call as downsides of this camera. No inbuilt flash. Yep you need have a flash like Canon Speedlite 90EX or Canon Speedlite 270EX flash or if you don't have one better buy it along with the camera. No view finder either. Even though you can use whole range of lenses it's quite impractical to mount a huge telephoto lens and take photos hand held. So basically the camera works  lot better with smaller lenses.

Pros about this Canon EOS M Camera are,

  • Large 18.0 Megapixel APS-C sized CMOS sensor.
  • DIGIC 5 Image Processor.
  • Compatible with the entire family of Canon EF and EF-S lenses. (with Adapter EF-EOS M).
  • ISO 100�6400 (expandable to 12800 in H mode).
  • Touch Screen 3.0-inch Clear View LCD monitor.
  • EOS Full HD Movie mode.
  • Compatibility with SD/SDHC/SDXC  and Ultra High Speed (UHS-I) memory cards.


Prices depends on which package you are going to buy and start from $350,

  • With EF-M 22mm STM Lens - $399.95
  • With EF-M18-55mm IS STM Lens - $359.95
  • With EF-M18-55mm IS STM Lens and 90EX Flash - $449.95 (Here)
Retail price of 90EX flash is $150 at Amazon with free shipping so last offer looks pretty good (you get the flash for around $90). It's not a cheap replacement for a DSLR camera. It's a good pocket DSLR camera if you already have all Lenses and stuff. Or you need DSLR quality photos and ability to mount lenses. This won't be a backup camera for weddings or anything.

One word about Camera bundles which available in Amazon and other online camera stores. These combo packages looks cheap and great bargains. But the problem is most of accessory comes in those bundles are not quality products. For example You must buy a fast quality memory card for Canon SX510 to maximize it's saving/recording speed. With these bundles you can cheap unbranded HDHC cards or old slower cards which won't help a lot. Same about camera bags too. So it's better buy some good accessories along with the camera but desperately. Might cost you few more dollars but you will be happy long term.
