Some real life images from the Canon EOS M

There aren’t many newsworthy things to report today. Sony introduced the new video camera, the PMW-200, but it has a 1/2″ sensor so it’s not going to this newspage. We just finished shooting an intriguing comparison between Alexa, F65, FS700, C300, RED and 7D that I’d love to show you, but I’ll have to settle on rights and it needs more work so I’m posting these photos I took from the new Canon EOS M “mirrorless” camera during my visit at the 25 years of EOS anniversary party here in Vienna.

As recently reported the EOS M has the same sensor as the 3 year “old” EOS 7D. Looking at footage from the aforementioned camera comparison the 7D sensor is really way behind in terms of resolution and clean details.
Let’s hope Canon understands there’s a need for aliasing free small cameras in HDSLR world, because the EOS-M mount is cool as it opens up compatibility to many mounting adapters.

The Canon EOS M package is $800 in combination with the 22mm f2.0 lens: LINK
