And Engadget just posted the first full Canon EOS-M review: “We like the Canon EOS M — far more than we might have expected, given its mediocre performance during our hands-on — but the company’s first mirrorless ILC falls short on several fronts. Professional photographers can affix their pricey L lenses, which is nice, but the dismal focusing performance means SLRs will probably be far more appealing to these users. With the M, Canon is providing a digital camera bridge of sorts in the hopes of capturing the hearts (and wallets) of amateurs looking to step up from point-and-shoots. Indeed, this is far more versatile than what these beginners are used to, yet it’s still built on a simple interface that isn’t intimidating. Granted, this isn’t what the pros had been hoping for, but Canon’s DSLR series clearly isn’t ready to free these users from their hefty housings, leaving the company’s ever-strong professional lineup to live another day.“
