The EOS M5 is a very welcome addition to Canon's product line-up and arrives at a time when many photo enthusiasts were starting to doubt whether Canon would ever produce a mirrorless camera that caters for their needs. Although the M5 doesn't tick all th...
Elegant controls, Compatible with EF-S lenses (via an adapter), Versatile 18-150mm kit lens
No 4K video, Limited number of EOS-M lenses
The Canon EOS M5 has plenty of weaknesses. It lacks 4K, which makes it a no-go for anyone who's serious about video, and that's a big disappointment considering how well appointed its other video features are. The relatively small viewfinder is another as...

Polished handling, Excellent touchscreen control, Plenty of detail in images, Connectivity
No 4K video capture, Limited lens range, Pricey compared to rivals
There's much to like about Canon's little EOS M5. The 24MP APS-C sensor delivers images with bags of detail, while the polished handling, including a well thought-out control layout that's brilliantly integrated with the touchscreen interface, makes it a...

Some may feel the absence of 4K is a bit of an oversight – especially now that many rivals are including this as a standard setting, while the limited range of EF-M lenses could be restricting. Granted, you've got Canon's huge range of EF and EF-S lenses...

Small size, big step forward for EOS M series, fast autofocus setup (finally), decent viewfinder and touchscreen combination, access to lots of lenses (via adapter)
Battery depletion issues, autofocus setup can't compete with the best mirrorless cameras out there, high ISO sensitivity shows off image noise, no 4K video, expensive compared to competition
