Interesting. How do you manage to change lenses?

What I'd like to see are a few more native lenses, particularly a fast(ish) short tele prime.
+1. This.

Ha! You all know Canon would never build this. It would compete with it's own DSLR's and might take sales away. Or, if Canon does build something like it, it would be so crippled, again so not to compete with it's own offering's, it would be yet another sales dog like the M series has been

of a grey card and select custom WB on that.
Custom WB is a wise selection for the "my menu"-tab.
neuroanatomist said:Shoot RAW.
Quackator said:neuroanatomist said:Shoot RAW.
Yada, yada. Raw alone won't help you to achieve exactly the same WB as the day before,
or the month before, unless you have a reliable neutral reference in the picture.
Holding a grey card a little different from last time might give you a small color shift.
One you might not notice, but a color critical client might.
Having a tried and tested reference image saved will give you extra production safety.
Of course this counts for RAW shooters (who isn't?) just the same.

Quackator said:neuroanatomist said:That should work, because light never changes. :![]()
In some locations it won't.
Maintaining a stock of WB references for locations you might
revisit again is certainly good practice and will in most situations
deliver very good and consistent results from start.
You are free to use overlord color management on top of that, brainiac.
Quackator said:Mirrorless will show you the resulting depth of field while shooting and still not go dark in the finder.
Quackator said:Mirrorless will show your subject as bright as you are going to record it, and not as dark as your eyesight really is.
Quackator said:Mirrorless can spread AF fields far better across the image than DSLRs can.
Quackator said:Mirrorless doesn't need dark time when the mirror flaps up and down.
Quackator said:Mirrorless can give you much higher frame rates than a DSLR can.

None of us have reliable sales numbers.
I have been offered twice to buy into a competitor system at a very
generous 50% discount price - and turned down twice.
At some point, the EOS M was rumored to be #3 in sales in Japan,
with Canon allegedly holding 9% market share in Japan.
Imagine, with a camera that so many people deem less useful
than a pound of chimpanzee crap.
Looking at my inventory of M & M3 plus lenses, Canon is probably
doing not half as bad as many people think.
Without reliable data, this is pure speculation, of course.
True story....there was an opened unitt of m1 at local camera shop and I got an offer at $125 US by store manager. Almost buy it but then I remembered my latest iPhone can do better for still shots.
You know why the m does well in Japan? How the m does in other regions?
