Pros: Compactness, ergonomics, touch screen, AF
Cons: dynamic range
Opinion: now after a month of using this new Eos M5, now is the time to draw some conclusions. I bought this after ML experience in Sony (wonderful sensor, but total system cost too high) and one in Fuji (the development problems with adobe, I, I found them), and when Canon has released a mirrorless that he promised a good AF, small size and total compatibility with all Canon the world, did not I think twice before giving her a chance. The car looks good, built in polycarbonate rather than metal, but now it seems that the trend in the canon is that. The dimensions are extremely compact, which, however, does not involve an awkward arrangement of buttons, in fact, ergonomics is very good even for those who, like me, has great hands. of the button Honorable Mention "dial func." I wonder why no one thought of it before. The touch screen and is extremely convenient not only in the experience of use in live view, but also when con the eye to the viewfinder using it in style joystick to change the focus point. Fire that then the car hooked very quickly, both with EF-M lenses with both EF lenses (with the original adapter, I have not had a chance to try it with third-party adapters). In conditions of good light focus is lightning, when used with USM lenses then not much difference with 5d2 I had before. The dark slows down a bit, but between the auxiliary light, and some care is still a good standard. Making a comparison, I would say that is the same level of what I had on 5d2.rnNei against, but it is not a machine problem because the entire ecosystem Canon, the sensor seems to be a generation behind the equivalent sony regarding dynamic range, the lights will break through with just a couple of stops of underexposure, and you can not recover even the shadows lot, 100 iso over 3 stop recovery appears enough noise. In any case, these are impressions of use and not technical data, there will be on-linemany other authoritative reviews and more reliable from the point of view of "scientific". rnConcludendo, the machine is an excellent solution for those looking for a lightweight and compact body that allows to not give up anything, and always brings good results at home. Why buy this, and not a a6300 or t2? For the Canon ecosystem that between lens and flash offers much more choice than they can do Sony and Fuji. |
