Canon EOS M5 Review and Price-Best mirrorless camera by Canon till date

Canon has just taken a step forward with the launch of the EOS M5 when offering a mirror-less model that is all supposed to give its entry-level DSLRs along with other interchangeable-lens rivals a major competition. The camera is loaded at almost the same price with all the specifications and features that are more than enough to exceed rivals like the EOS Rebel T6s/760D. It seems like a tacit acknowledgment that Canon is still determined to make it into the next price tier, even though the entry level DSLRs are still on demand, with a price range of less than $600.

The body and kit with the EF-M 15-45mm f3.5-6.3 IS STM lens will be part of the set. Hey! Hey! This is Amazon on

Our verdict on Canon m5 wifi

The Canon EOS M5 DSLR cane is definitely regarded as Canon’s best mirrorless camera to date, but you still feel the absence of some features that are available at the same price point on other cameras, such as the Sony A630000 (best priced at amazon.com). With a stylish autofocus system, the Sony A6300 gives it a stern competitor with a quicker continuous shooting, the ability to shoot 4K video, much better battery life, a sturdy body, along with support for larger lenses without the need for an adapter. With its hybrid optical stabilization system, the Canon EOS M5 still scores a win over the Sony A6300 camera, with the latter sticking to its optical-only system for that camera.

Design and controls of Canon m5 Wifi-Canon EOS M5 Sensor

Very often, in regards to their lethargic results, Canon has gone through many complaints about his previous mirror less models (like the M3). Similar to 80D, Canon has integrated the Dual Pixel CMOS into the M5, which is largely supposed to have a faster autofocus speed and monitoring efficiency than the current hybrid CMOS in the M3 and T6s/760D. The camera is also loaded with the competitive continuous-shooting rating of M5, 7 fps, which is further enabled by autofocus and auto exposure characteristics. In addition, Canon has argued that its image quality is definitely on par with the 80D. The Canon m5 sensor is 22.30mm wide and 14.90mm tall.

While the Canon EOS M5 is not a DSLR, it will definitely give you the feeling of a great DSLR at hand with its nature and appearance. It is also Canon’s first mirrorless camera that comes with an electronic viewfinder and actual grip built in. In addition, to encourage you to take all those selfies with a lot of ease, the touch screen display can tilt down easily.

Canon EOS M5 Review – Features

If you start using the viewfinder to select autofocus areas, Canon has simply adopted the conventional and special capability of Olympus to use the back LCD as a touch pad. In order to maintain a continuous low-energy link between the camera and your phone, it has also adopted Nikon’s plan to add a Bluetooth, which will eventually wake up the Wi-Fi for faster remote shooting and file transfers.

Sensor: 24.2 Megapixel (APS-C)

ISO Range: 100-25600

Focus: Dual pixel CMOS AF

Continuous shooting: 7.0 fps

Processor: DIGIC 7

Canon EOS M5 Review for Image stabilization

Whilst introducing the Canon EOS M5, Canon has joined the league of the entire mirror- less manufacturers which are offering hybrid (optical plus sensor shift) stabilization feature with a 5 axis compensation.

Canon EOS M5 Review for Autofocus

If we have to talk about one of the Canon EOS M5’s biggest highlights, it has to be its new image sensor that, compared to the obsolete Hybrid CMOS AF III system, perfectly supports the Canon Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology. A fast and smooth phase- detection autofocus is facilitated by the cutting edge Dual Pixel CMOS AF, about 80 percent of the total image area. Canon has also confirmed that the M5 would have the best autofocus output of any EOS M- series camera to date. The device comes with an EV -1 TO 18 working range. To help all the shots in low light, there is also an in-built LED autofocus assistance lamp.

Canon EOS M5 Review for Viewfinder

The Electronic Viewfinder is the newest addition to the Canon EOS M5 wifi and only a clumsy electronic Viewfinder adapter was supported for all earlier versions in the M series. The M5 viewfinder is built-in and is based on a 0.39-inch OLED display with a resolution of approx. 2,360,000 points. The function enables the consumer to provide a depth-of-field preview function and three on-demand grid overlays to help with precise framing..

Canon EOS M5 Review for Performance

We can definitely claim that Canon EOS M5 wifi delivers on the performance component and has come up with some major changes compared to Canon’s previous M series offers. In addition, Canon rated the start-up time of the Canon EOS M5 as one second and rated it 66% faster than its predecessors. Moreover, in burst shooting results, the difference is very noticeable. While the M3 was limited to 4.2 frames per second (with the first frame locked for focus and exposure), the Canon EOS M5 is capable of delivering 7 frames per second per capture with autofocus between frames allowed. In addition, when you lock the autofocus and auto exposure for the first frame, the numbers surge up to 9 frames per second.

Canon EOS M5 Review for Video Capture

Although the Canon EOS M5 lacks 4k capture, with a resolution of 1920 to 1080 pixels, it can shoot high definition movies at up to 60 frames per second. Very interestingly, the camera has produced a new movie capture combination IS mode that includes the latest optical stabilization centered on the lens along with five-axis digital image stabilization. Surprisingly, even if the lens is not capable of optical stabilization, with its five-axis digital stabilization, the EOS M5 will still be able to address shakes.
