Canon EOS M camera features
The Canon EOS M camera employs three AF methods for video and photos, Face Detection & Tracking AF, Multi-Point AF for automatic selection and Single-Point AF, where users select one of 31 AF points. Through the camera’s touch-panel operation, subject recognition and tracking is engaged at the touch of a finger, allowing users to track subjects accurately and focus on intended subjects with ease. In addition to subject tracking, the touch-panel LCD allows for simple, intuitive operation, menu navigation and touch features making it easy to shoot video and photos.
Lenses for EOS M mount
Thanks to Canon’s new Stepping Motor Technology, when using either of the newly announced M-series lenses - the Canon EF-M 22mm f/2 STM kit lens or the optional Canon EF-M 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM lens - the AF system remains silent, helping ensure users only capture the sound of the scene being recorded. The Canon EOS M digital camera also features manual audio level control to 64 levels, a built-in stereo microphone, which includes a wind filter and an attenuator function to reduce audio distortion in extra loud situations.
Canon EOS M video features
In addition to the creativity afforded by over 70 compatible lenses, the EOS M also includes Picture Style settings - including custom Picture Styles - when recording video, allowing users to adjust color settings the same as when taking still pictures. The Canon EOS M compact camera also includes Canon’s Video Snapshot mode for an easy way to record and create a fun highlight reel that can be easily shared. Video Snapshot mode combines a series of short video clips into a single file, all in-camera. Through the camera’s touchscreen controls users can delete, cut or re-order the clips in-camera for quick and easy editing.
Canon EOS recording formats
The Canon EOS M camera records MPEG-4 AVC H.264 video as an .MOV file in a range of NTSC and PAL professional frame rates, including 1080p Full HD video at 30p (29.97), 24p (23.976) and 25p, 720p HD video at 60p (59.94) or 50p and Standard Definition video at 30p (29.97) or 25p.
 New Canon EOS M Digital Camera |
Canon EOS M video functions : The new Canon EOS M system camera utilizes Canon’s Hybrid CMOS AF system to deliver fast autofocus speed for both video and photography. The Hybrid CMOS autofocus system truly shines when shooting video with Canon EOS Full HD Movie mode including Movie Servo AF for continuous autofocus and tracking of moving subjects. The Hybrid CMOS AF system is located on the CMOS sensor itself and combines phase-difference AF and contrast AF to achieve operational stability, speed and precision. The Movie Servo AF function on the EOS M is enabled by default which keeps images on the rear screen in constant focus, even before the shutter is pressed. This continual focus makes for sharp video capture in a snap or to help reduce shutter lag.
