I use my m a fair bit as well for video. I prefer the 7D and particualrly the 60D for the screen and physical rather than touchscreen controls, also the m feels a bit tiny sat atop a tascam DR60D, but it gives good video. Digic V nice and clean. The ML interface isn't all that great, but focus peaking easy enough to set up on M.

I have used both my M's on interviews, for that jump cut or angle cut effect. The breaking of the fat32 4gb barrier is very helpful. And as I use MF for video, no concerns at all about the af on the m.
