Good intro into Mirrorless

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this camera as a second camera to be used primarily when in the back country, am tired of packing around a heavy DSLR. Although there are numerous limitations to mirrorless cameras at this stage I decided to stay with the canon brand so that I can use my older canon lenses. With the included M to EF adaptor I am able to save money on lenses and still have the versatility of my numerous EF lenses.
I would say that the M series lens that came with the camera is faster and quieter that the EF lenses and the camera works slightly better with them but not to the point that I can't get excellent pictures with any of the combinations that I used.
Overall I am pleased with the camera and would recommend it, although a buyer needs to be aware of the limitations the camera has. It is not fast as far as frames per second, and the auto focus is a little slow, but the image quality is good and the menus are easy to use and the camera works well for the type of photography I do. I am very pleased with the video quality. Although I don't have much to compare it to I have done some short video clips and think the quality of video is excellent for the price of the camera.

Must have accesory

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased a new camera and because the battery life was reported to be limited I purchased a second battery. I am very happy with this decision, the battery life on the camera is better than I had anticipated but since I primarily use the camera while backpacking and have no way to recharge I wanted a back up. With 2 batteries I was able to spend 10 days in the back country and take some video and over 500 pictures.
My biggest wish was that canon had a charger that was compatible with solar capability.

I was looking for a portable device to hike with that I could view photos on. This works great. Doesn't take good photos or videos but was not an issue for me. I want to view camera images on a screen that is larger than 2 x 2 inch.
