More Canon EOS M5 Images & Specifications

[HaroldC3]

PS ... Canon should still fire whoever is responsible for withholding a fully-articulated LCD from this camera.

+1000!!! Cmon canon!

 

[dlee13]

I can't wait to for the official announcement and to see pricing, the M3 is already a great body but this looks even better!

DPAF so maybe Canon marketing will be ballsy and say 19.36 Million AF points (assuming 80% frame coverage)

 

[Woody]

I am so getting this!!! WOW!

 

[Jopa]

Seems like an amazing camera, especially considering DPAF. Too bad the native lens selection currently sucks... How do these cameras work with adapted EF lenses?

 

[verysimplejason]

Finally, DPAF!!! The specs seem perfect for me. Time to sell my old 500D. I care less with 4K. Full HD is more than enough for me. It should bring the price down a little bit due to lack of 4K. Well, hopefully...

 

[cellomaster27]

WOW. I am genuinely genuinely interested in this. DPAF! decent ISO rating. Large enough with the megapixels for an APS-C. EVF. better body! Yes, no 4K is disappointing but not a major factor considering I hardly ever take video with my camera. Good job canon!!

 

[rrcphoto]

Damn, that's actually nice looking

WOW. I am genuinely genuinely interested in this. DPAF! decent ISO rating. Large enough with the megapixels for an APS-C. EVF. better body! Yes, no 4K is disappointing but not a major factor considering I hardly ever take video with my camera. Good job canon!!

Body design feels nice compared to those Sony slabs.

 

[Stichus III]

Is that going to be a customizable dial on the top?

I certainly hope so!

 

[sanj]

Ugly

You've handled one already? I have the original M... got it during the firesale. Worth the money but never ever liked the handling on it.

If this thing has focus peaking, I'll just get an adapter for my FD lenses. Since it has built in 5 axis stabilization. BOOM. 50mm f1.2 FD lenses are going for ~$250? BOOM. Shoot, I'm excited.

 

[Arctic-Winds]

This ticks all the boxes for me. I'm not fussed about the lack of 4k (means it's a bit cheaper) but the touch DPAF implementation sounds really interesting. Whilst it aint a looker, unless the reviews are poor this will be a perfect back up camera for me. Good thing I picked up a discounted EF to EOSM adapter earlier today

5 axis electric stabilization needs image cropping for compensation, its not physical image stablization

I have handled Sony's in bestbuy. My comments are based on pics posted for M5. I am going to keep a eye on this or 80d. I would like to get this if it matches 80d as it saves space and looks nice.

I thought you could only do 3 in software.. maybe they are combining with lens IS for 5.

the specs look far better than I thought canon could pull off I wonder what the battery life is like.

and it actually looks .. nice.

may be a nice hit from the #2 mirrorless company in the world.

How cool is that. A 2017 camera model with 1080p video. Go Canon! Because who needs more than 2 megapixels?

Errr... how many people have 4K TV at home?

I don't!

I've never used the video function on any of my cameras. I suspect that a lot of people don't care about the video specs on their cameras.

 

[ahsanford]

That top view (knobstorm) + integral EVF + DPAF + beefier grip = this is starting to look like the 'logically tinier but not disgracefully controlled super-tinyness emphasized' rig many enthusiasts have been waiting for.

I still want to see more native and small EF-M lenses (more tiny f/2 primes!), but this is 2/3 of the way of metamorphosizing a lovely tiny commercial rig into a more conventional/flexible/intuitive/powerful tool for enthusiasts.

Eager to see how DPAF + EVF coexist. Touchscreen AF that affects the viewfinder AF selection? Is thumb-controlled-focusing the new eye-controlled-focusing? #intrigued
