2 New Canon EOS M Models Coming Soon?

July 8, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Canon EOS M-2

Following the recent price slashing of the current Canon EOS M, along with its potential end of production, rumors continue to swirl regarding successors to the first generation EOS M.

Two cameras are rumored to be coming up in short order. [Read more…]

Canon EOS M Listed as Discontinued

July 6, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Discontinued EOS M

Adorama is the first retailer that I am aware of to list the Canon EOS M as discontinued. Searching for “EOS M” on Adorama’s site automatically directs you to a page containing discontinued items, and only displays used items. Additionally, the previous product listing for the EOS M now says “We are sorry, this item is no longer available.”

Perhaps the recent $299 fire sale for Canon EOS M kits depleted Adorama’s supply?

B&H and Amazon are currently back-ordered on this kit; however, you can still order at $299.

Additionally, the EOS M kit with 18-55mm lens for $349 is in stock at both B&H and Amazon.

If you have been thinking about picking up one of these very discounted prices, you may not have much time left to find one at all.

Canon EOS M Kits as Low as $299 – Deal Alert

July 3, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Canon-EOS-M-Black

The Canon EOS M just got a massive instant rebate deal at B&H. The EOS M with EF-M 22mm f/2 STM lens is now $299 (reg. $599). Check it out here at B&H Photo.

The EOS M with EF-M 18-55MM F/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens is now $349 (reg. $599). Check it out here at B&H Photo.

These deal prices are good through July 9, 2013.

While my initial Canon EOS M review was highly critical of the AF speed on this camera, Canon’s recent firmware update for the EOS M appears to have resolved my primary complaint. As a result, these look like some solid deals on this compact mirrorless shooter.

Canon EOS M Firmware Update Version 2.0.2

June 27, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Canon-EOS-M-Black

Canon has released new firmware for the EOS M. Firmware version 2.0.2 is supposed to address the AF speed issues that are so detrimental to the enjoyment of an otherwise good camera (read my EOS M Review). Additionally, it adds support for the new EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens.

Specifically, firmware version 2.0.2 adresses the following issues: [Read more…]

Canon EOS M Firmware Upgrade Might Just Make it an Awesome Camera

June 20, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Canon-EOS-M-Black

The Canon EOS M had all the potential in the world to be a market leader; however, Canon utterly failed in producing a competent AF system. Accordingly, the EOS M has been highly criticized for its sluggish performance and sales appear to have been equally sluggish.

While Canon has blamed the poor lens selection for the EOS M’s failure to fly off store shelves, the rest of the photographic community knows that it’s the slow AF system that keeps people from buying in. I love the EF-M 22mm f/2 lens that Canon includes as a kit lens for the EOS M – it’s compact, a great focal length as a walkaround lens and it has a nice, fast aperture. But, again, the AF speed is unacceptable.

When Canon announced the EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens earlier this month, the company also revealed that a firmware update would be forthcoming for the EOS M and will improve the system’s AF performance. Now, it appears we have video proof of just what firmware version 2.0.2 for the EOS M will do. [Read more…]

New Canon EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM Lens Unveiled

June 6, 2013 By Eric Reagan

EF-M 11-22mm f4-5.6 IS STM

Canon has released a new lens for the EOS M system. The Canon EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens becomes the third lens in the EF-M series – accompanied by the 18-55mm standard zoom and 22mm f/2 lenses that were released alongside the original EOS M camera last summer (read our Canon EOS M review).

On the APS-C sensor of the EOS M, the new 11-22mm lens provides the full frame equivalent coverage of roughly 18-35mm. Of course, as you can tell from the lens name acronyms, it features built-in image stabilization (Canon cites 3-stop shutter speed advantage) and the new STM motor for quite operation during video capture.

The EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens has a .15m minimum focus distance and features a retractable lens design, along with a manual focus ring.

No word yet on price or availability.

Canon EOS 100D Specs Leak Out

March 17, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Canon EOS-b EOS 100D

It appears that the upcoming EOS-b, Canon EOS 100D (or whatever it will be called) specs have leaked out via Best Buy’s website. These appear to be legit – although the official camera name may not be listed yet and you can expect this to be pulled soon…

Previous indications of a “smaller DSLR” appear to be legit with the camer weighing a full 5 ounces less than the Canon Rebel T4i and measures 3.6″ (height) x 4.6″ (width) x 2.7″ (depth).

Best Buy EOS 100D or EOS-b

The new EOS model should carry a retail price of $799 with a EF-S 18-55mm IS kit lens, which further confirms the EF-S mount and that this is NOT the follow-up to the EOS M. [Read more…]

Canon EOS M (Version 2.0) Rumors

February 24, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Canon-EOS-M Rumors

Canon really missed the mark on the EOS M that was introduced last summer. The camera had the potential to be the next big thing in the mirrorless market; however, the sluggish AF system killed any chances of that.

Recent rumors point to a higher spec’d EOS M-style camera that will hopefully deliver in the autofocus department. Check out the rumored spec list below. [Read more…]
