Canon has announced the EOS M3 mirrorless interchangeable lens camera for US. We talked about it earlier when it was launched in Europe back in February. The camera will go on sale in the US in early October for $679.99 body-only.

If the Autofocus issue is solved, then they will divert some of the DSLR users towards mirrorless branch. But again, Pro's will still choose DSLR as it has a lot going for it, than just AF performance, like battery life, speed of shooting/ recording, manual controls, choice of lenses/ accessories, etc...
Its like motorcycles, more precisely Sportsbikes vs Streetbikes. Almost the same inside, but aimed for different people.

But frankly speaking, I wanted them to launch a APS-C and Full Frame Mirrorless together! Sony is grabbing sales with time, and Canon should get faster in launching stuff.
I think their 5D Mark IV should have this AF technology, so that it can be used as both mirrorless and DSLR, with great accuracy and AF speed in both cases.

      AnonD-93439, 28 Aug 2015still, Sony alpha a6000I tried that camera and couldn't get used to it, I don't know why but the way the buttons are setup and such didn't make it easy to use. Lots of menu to use also, quite annoying. I prefer having a touch screen, or at least an easy to use camera like a Nikon D3300/5500.

      Excellent quality though!

                    Nice! been waiting a few months for it. However, the price is way too expensive. Better to order on eBay and they'll come from Japan with a lens for a cheaper price.
