I was wondering, are we all hoping to be using our lenses and flashes some day on a mirrorless camera? What is it that we want from this camera? do we want it to fit in our pocket? Do we want it to have a FF sensor? We certainly want the best AF Canon can muster, but do we want a little plastic computer hanging off the back our our teles? Or do we just want what we basically have now, - the mirror + any and all benefits that a mirrorless arrangement gives us?
mirrorless ?

We are not "all" hoping for the same thing. People are different and for the most part photographers are people.
Some photographers want FF and others don't.

I would like something similar in size to the M, but with an updated sensor/AF and EVF. I would also like if they threw in either the ability to use current wired remotes, or a robust intervalometer. I don't really care if it's FF or has a built in flash.risc32 said:

I was mostly looking to reduce weight. It is also nice to use old manual glass. I prefer the ergonomics of the Nex6 and A6000 over the EOS-M. It is mostly because of the battery bump and two control dials. Two dials are needed to change shutter and
On a Sony you can zoom and use focus peeking at the same time. Which ML cannot do.
If Canon released a serious mirrorless camera that has electronic viewfinder, focus peeking, and two control nobs and a few more settable manual buttons and showed serious commitment to mirrorless I would be torn. I do not yet have much invested in Sony lenses. It would not take much to switch to Canon Mirrorless.
But if 6 months that will be a different story but I will be a hard sell I like the way Sony is going with its current mirrorless cameras.
The current EOS-M is a interchangeable lens point-and-shoot. I was looking for something more.

No kidding. I assumed that there was not. I have never looked seriously at a mirrorless system so don't know jack about it other than what I have read here and there. My primary objection is the poor AF of canon... I'm heavily invested in Canon Long Glass so not open to getting into another system.

I know for myself I want both a small easy to carry mirrorless such as the M with an APS-C sensor and a FF version with all the benefits of a truly pro grade system. I don't really care about the size of the FF camera. I had the shutter on my 5Dll take a dump after leaving it in the trunk of my car for too long (I know, my own fault). Just another reason to loose the shutter along with the mirror.
