Canon’s ship is typically a leaky one so we’ve had full specs and photos of this camera for a few days now.  Today though Canon officially launched their
Canon are last to the mirrorless market amongst the big players and on paper they have come out with an impressive package.  Most noticeably, the camera is TINY.  It is actually smaller than the Panasonic GF5 Mirco Fourthirds camera but critically it packs a full APS-C sized sensor and not a smaller M 4/3 one.  An 18MP APS-C sensor no less and a another camera Canon EOS C300. Also are you looking for a good lens 17" Lens. Once you have decided to purchase the Canon EOS C300 you should consider getting the necessary accessories and you will be good to go.Enlarger Head Accessories

The camera will begin shipping with either an 18-55 EF-M IS zoom or a 22mm f2.0 STM pancake style lens but expect to see many more lenses soon, probably a couple at Photokina in September.  An EF lens adapter of course means that you can use any of your existing EF lenses in the meantime.  On paper the EOS-M seems to share more than a couple of features with the recently announced Rebel 650D / T4i and I think it is fair to assume there is some tech crossover here in the 18MP sensor as well as a 3″ touchscreen.  The recent Rebel was Canon’s first DSLR with a touchscreen but by all accounts reviewers seem to like its application and function so I’m glad to see it implemented here as well.  With few physical buttons on the camera it will have to be an intuitive touch system if this camera is going to work well.
Video looks to be decently well specified in the EOS-M line with full 1080p at 24/25/30 fps and AF during filming, designed to compliment the new STM style lenses.  The EOS-M also has a microphone input Binoculars & Scopes.
