Although I own several high end DSLRs from both Canon and Nikon, I&#8217;ve been a devoted user of mirrorless cameras for at least five years owing to the compact size and electronic viewfinder that I highly value.<\/p>\n<p>Sony has been a leader in the mirrorless realm with Fujifilm, Panasonic and Olympus close behind. Canon has been playing catch up with its M series for a couple of years. I now consider the M5 a strong contender.<\/p>\n<p>The new M5 now uses a 24MP sensor with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.betterphotography.com\/peter-eastways-blogs-sp-19033\/equipment-etc\/697-canons-dual-pixel-sensor-and-why\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dual Pixel AF<\/a> for faster and more precise autofocus. This is Canon&#8217;s first M series with built-in viewfinder. The M5 combines in-camera digital and optical lens stabilization. The tilting LCD has doubles as a touchscreen. And the camera has a built-in flash.<\/td>\n<td><center><a href=\".\/images\/events\/wppi2017\/IMG_3462.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[9563]\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\".\/images\/events\/wppi2017\/IMG_3462s.jpg\"><\/a><br \/>\nThis is the Canon M5 with the 18-150mm EF-M lens.<\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"2\">\n<hr>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><center><a href=\".\/images\/events\/wppi2017\/IMG_3460.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[9563]\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\".\/images\/events\/wppi2017\/IMG_3460s.jpg\"><\/a><br \/>\nThe tilting LCD also functions as a touchscreen.
