Canon EOS M3 sample pics and Auto-Focus test


Above: EOS M3 AF performance

Chinese site Mobile01 posted a review about the Canon EOS M3. There is a huge set of sample pics (can be viewed full size), and videos that compare the AF performance of the EOS M3 to the EOS M2.

I was impressed by the high ISO performance:

Mobile01‘s review comes also with a lot of product images. Thought it was worth to post even if the review isn’t in English. The sample pics (all ISO settings) provided with the review are pretty useful to learn about the EOS M3’s performance.

The EOS M3 is not on sale in the US, and is available in Europe only as kit with the EF-M 18-55mm IS STM lens (Amazon Italy, Amazon Germany, Amazon UK). You can order the M3 also at DigitalRev (ships internationally). DigitalRev’s price at checkout is inclusive of all taxes and customs for customers from Asia and the EU (and possibly a better price than Amazon), for customers from the US taxes depend by the state. Detailed M3 specification can be read here.
