Portable Power, Small package: EOS M3 EF-M

/in /by

canon-pandsLooking for a portable solution with most of the option of a full size camera, look no further.  The Canon EOS M3 EF-M is here.  It’s about the size of a large digital point and shoot camera but with the ability to change lenses (it comes with an 18-55mm lens), this mirrorless body is a hit.  These cameras are excellent for pre-shooting or if you are traveling and don’t want to carry your full bag, the M3 does the job.

Not just great 24.2 MP images, this little giant shoots 1920x 1080 HD Video at 23.9 FPS.  It has full manual mode and takes RAW images so if you want to use it for prosumer use, it works great.  Pricing is around $599.00 USD. Here are the specs and details from the canon page.  http://ow.ly/XVCy0
