Hi Tupp That's a beautiful video. The only thing that interests me is the beauty of the footage I can get. I think the Panasonic is truly impressive, but the EOS M is a fantastic tool in its own way. From what I've seen the Fujian lens is also great when you play to its strengths. I don't regard 4K as particularly important in my own work at this stage, but flexibility is a different matter. In order to be able to use old C-Mount lenses that will only cover a tiny sensor, I bought a GoPro 4 with the intention of doing the Backbone mod, so 4K might be a factor then, as it can be turned into lovely 1080p footage -the trade-off is the the ProTune settings are still pretty inflexible. Another great thing about the Canon is that I can shoot long scenes without it overheating, which is very important for the type of filming that interests me.

Epoca Libera, That's a really nice video! I have an EOS M, but was hesitant about the M3. I have been considering a Nikon crop sensor camera, but your video makes the M3 seem very desirable. It's hard to describe what I like so much about it, but there's a particular look that I associate with Canon still photos, and I think it carries over to video in this example. The colour rendition, clarity and detail look lovely to my eyes. It's a shame that Canon's default style is rather poor when the camera has a much better option. The default seems to make details look over-processed and coarse (as with the EOS M), whereas here the picture is smooth and generally more refined. I can almost smell the cool evening air of Athens
