Canon EOS M10-2

The Canon EOS M10 is the latest in the company’s efforts to become relevant in the mirrorless space.

Canon began producing EF lenses for the Canon EOS system in 1987 and, by 1995, had produced 10 million lenses. Canon has reached each 10 million lens production mark faster than than last with the exception of a measurable decline for the last two milestones. [Read more…]
