^^^ Totally agree. Seems it's popular now to relegate "art" to the background, and every discussion becomes an engineering discourse. I have lots of great cameras, but I'm thinking about just taking the EOS M and 22mm when I go to Paris with my family this month. I'm not sure I want to drag a...

Waikiki Beach, Honolulu, Hawaii... (STM 22mm)

Hawaii...EOS M and 22mm f2 STM lens...

A couple from my second trip with the EOS M and 22mm as my only shooter. This time, Hawaii (just in time...missed Flossie!)...

We've all been there. Focus on a topic to shoot, and then make a few prints. You'll remember why photography is so appealing, regardless of the gear used.

I can see the controls during the day on the back LCD, but the higher-contrast the scene, the harder it is to see the exact framing details. I'd be concerned I'd miss focus because I touched something in the foreground instead of the background, and vice versa. I disabled the touch screen for...

I'm not letting any of the online reviews and sites convince me I can't make reasonable images from the EOS M...even with the AF speed "limitiations." It shoots like a compact camera...a good one. I've had mine a week, and just got back from Boston, Mass., and shot it like a street-shooting...

I'm sure it would be expensive. Hopefully, they'll consider a 35mm field of view as opposed to 28mm. 28 is nice, but it's not as good as a general lens (more limited, I think). At least there's the EOS M and 22... :) Sent from my iPhone using SeriousCompacts mobile app

The one thing that people don't really seem to compare is DoF characteristics between an APS-C sensor with an f2 aperture, and smaller (faster, cleaner, more modern) sensors. The EOS M gives a big-camera image in a small body. In my mind (and in the image) the EOS M is a "compact" camera with...

I'm still getting into my comfort zone with expressing myself with compact cameras. Anders Petersen shoots a Contax T3, and my own sits on a shelf as I look at hanging rolls of film to cut, sleeve, contact, and edit. So the Sony RX100 is taking up the slack. I think it's working out. Rio de...

Thank you both. Ray, I don't have these shots on my Tumblr site yet (but I have Rio shots from another visit)...try David Manning and thanks. Gary, I felt the shot of the Christ had kind of a "backstage" feel :) I've seen similar Pope images I found interesting.
