Great Starter Camera
This is the first digital camera we have purchased, and are far from professional photographers(I.e. we do not have a need USB charging which appears to be a complaint). It is fairly easy to use once you get the hang of the controls. The Cannon app allows the camera to send images directly to our IPhones, or shoot remotely so that is always a plus. The attached image was a simple point and shoot of the dog and the moon through my cheap telescope.
6 Month Update:
Absolutely no issues, we have snapped thousands of photos and are getting pretty good at photography now. It is still such a great buy, go ahead and buy if you are on the fence.
1 Year In:
Added a snap of the Geminids Meteor Shower on Orion’s Belt last night. A long way to go, but slowly becoming competent in Astrophotography with this camera. I would like to branch out with some new lenses this next year. We have been able to document our little boy’s first year of life with this camera, so the investment has been worth every penny.
1 1/2 Years:
Added the EF-M 22mm f2 lens to up my astrophotography game with this camera and the results are brilliant. It also works as a street prime as well. Camera is still functioning flawlessly. Added a shot of the Milky Way I took last night.
Purchased a Sigma 30mm f1.4 lens for beach photography and ended up shooting the Milky Way all night instead. Highly recommend that lens for the EF-M platform because it is pretty much a do-it-all lens.
2 Years In:
Still absolutely no issues. The Sigma 30mm f1.4 lens pretty much has found a permanent place on this camera after 6 months of shooting with it. Adding the best Milky Way photo I have to date using the Sigma captured at St. George Island, FL.
