    I took an eos-m to Maui in 2022. It is a good travel camera. It is now my backup to my m6 mark II. I don't use Magic Lantern. I have 2 ef-m, 1 ef-s and 3 EF lenses.

      It definitely depends on what you use it for but for photos, vlogging, or using it as a webcam i’d say it’s amazing for the price! i believe so but you might want to check canons website for compatibility.

    • @ryanleethomas
      @ryanleethomas 5 месяцев назад +5

      Because it is cheaper than most lenses, and you can still adapt most glass to it while keeping the form factor.
      This camera is 12 years old, so it has quirks and character all its own, but I’m finding the M6 Mark II covers most of what you need that you’d find in newer RF mount APSC cameras, where the EOS M is great for raw video and vintage characteristics, without the expense of other high end cinema cameras.

    • @WhiteJadeProductions

      The Mount might be ditched, but blackmagic and cinemacameras in general rely on old mounts for a long time.
      There was not a lot of Detail about this EOS M Camera.
      But i think, you would be better of with a pocket 4k alike for a convinient Video focused camera. Espicially if you want ti stop using autofocus. 😅
      This camera is still interesting to me, but like a lot of toys, i don't see worthy usage in any time.

    • @WhiteJadeProductions

      Canon never supported this camera family very well with native lenses that pop on right out of the box. The whole point of this camera to me is to get adapters to open up your lens choices. With adapters you can mount almost any lens ever made.
