I read this comprehensive review before purchase and you should too:http://www.imaging-resource.com/PRODS/canon-eos-m/canon-eos-mA.HTMI'm an amatuer photog for more than 40 years. Until recently, my only concession to digital photography was the purchase of inexpensive Canon point-n-shoots. As film photography has become a greater burden and digital has caught up in terms of quality while surpassing in convenience and affordability, my discovery of this little gem at a bargain price was perfect timing. Adding a $15 adapter, I can use may ancient but excellent FD mount Canon lenses - think F1 and AE-1 cameras. Auto-focus speed doesn't matter to me because I still prefer to manually set almost everything. That said, the AF performance of the EOS M seems equivalent to that of my son's Nikon 1.My purchases for my entry into serious digital photography to date include: the EOS M with Speedlite 90EX and EOS M 18-55mm IS lense: an SD card (PNY 64 GB High Speed SDXC Class 10): a spare battery (Opteka LP-E12 LPE12 2000mAh Battery Pack): a lense adapter (Fotasy Canon FD Lens to EOS M Lens); and a neck strap (OP/TECH USA System Connector Super Pro A).

If you want to use your old FD lenses, this is one of the best choices. All you need is an adapter ring "Fotasy Canon FD FL Lens to Canon EOS M". The pictures turn out great, you just have to get used to the manual adjustment but there is an automatic ISO adjustment to help, if you want.

Compatible Lenses are expensive. Had to buy adapter for using other canon lenses

In my opinion, if you go for the Canon EOS M, you really ought to own both lenses as there are only two native lenses out. While I contemplated buying a lens adapter for the bigger and bulkier pro-style lense, I'm quite pleased with the mix of the 18-55mm and this 22mm. Great at capturing pictures in low light, and the pancake lens with your EOS M really makes it a truly portable DSLR level shooter.

Canon EOS M Mount adapter is a must have for all Canon EOS M users if they have other Canon EF and EF-S lenses. The construction is solid and heavy. I used several Canon EF-S and EF lenses and they work fine with the adapter. Highly recommended.

This is a big improvement over the original EOS M.Like the original, you can use all your EOS lenses with an adapter, as well as the small number of lenses designed especially for this format.I have a Canon G7x that performs very well, but the larger sensor of the EOS M3 have displaced it for many purposes.I think this camera is better than many of the reviewers have said.If you're a Canon user, and are looking for something in between a full frame model and a carry-everywhere, pocket-sized camera, you should definitely consider the M3.

Adapter works great, it lets me attach my EF and EF-S lenses to my Canon EOS M without any issues.

I purchased a Canon FD to Leica M adapter in order to get some more use out of my 17mm Canon lens. I’m pretty impressed with it so far. It seems considerably better quality than the cheap imported adapters, and not as expensive as a Novoflex. The lens hooks up solid and it feels solid on the camera body. I will most likely try some of their other adapters as necessary.
