Re: More EOS M5 Images & Specifications

Looks great.

Why is live view continuous shooting faster than shooting with the viewfinder? I would have thought that the EVF would essentially be redirecting the signal from the main screen.

Is electronic image stabilization roughly the same as what other manufacturers do with in-body image stabilisation?

Oh, hang on. No 4K!? Canon is doomed!

Re: More EOS M5 Images & Specifications

Have there been any rumors about a fast prime in the range of around 90mm (equivalent) being released anytime soon? This camera has me very interested. Also, will the 5 axis be good for stills as well as video?

Expected it to be a bit less square but the specs look decent. Curious what the number of AF points will be.

If dual pixel af is true, whole sensor is a af points.....

Make it under 1200 USD, it will sell like a hotcake...

I bet it wont even be $1000 (body only)

Looks nice. I am going to think about replacing 70d with this one instead of 80d. 1080p itself takes up so much space for my occasional use, I am not bothered about 4k. Touch AF feature sounds like a amazing thing.

**Touch AF: You can select autofocus points with your thumb by touching the rear LCD while looking through the viewfinder. Apparently it’s a very cool feature when using the camera.

Sorry, was thinking of the T6. 80D is $1199 USD. This shpuld be about the same
Right up there with 80d territory and even more stuff (video IS, touch AF). Hopefully we will able to get it for cheaper here over the time. Is it time to get few EF-M lens (11-22mm, 22mm) and then wait for body price to stabilize? What do you guys think?

No 4k? The iphone 6, yes, the one that's a year old....and a phone....has 4k. I have been a Canon shooter for 15 years and they have never been so aggressively fearful of cannibalizing their own business. It's sad. I feel like the cinema division called the still division and was like "hey, 5D mkIV, I swear to god I'll kill you if you don't hobble your 4k by only having CF and SD card slots and only allow mJPEG and no log....and M5, you weak little camera, don't even THINK of 4k, did you hear me? did I stutter?" All joking aside, this is a real problem and Canon needs to embrace cannibalism as long as it means people are buying Canon.

Seriously interested to replace my 50D. What lens options are there? Anything to rival the L 24-70ii?

No

Hopefully everyone thinks like this and don't buy it. I want to switch to mirrorless finally.

DPAF ! ...... ;D .... that was my number 1 hope !!!!

Now please let there be no (low) moire and aliasing in video!

This is the most exciting news for me all year! A small camera that can do most things reasonably well, and with DPAF and touch-screen!

If Canon can announce a C100 Mk III done right this year, then I will be all set for the next five years. C100 mk III, 5D mk IV (please release a firmware update with 4K in a codec with smaller file sizes) and EOS-M5 .... covers everything I will need .
