I WAS getting pretty excited about the EOS M as a replacement for my P&S ... until I realized that it probably does not have AF MA. There is no way that I can get excited about an interchangeable lens camera without AF MA ... I just don\'t need that level of grief. Especially when it looks like I will be putting ~$1,400 into the kit. Very disappointed since I can look at the AF MA adjustments that I have made on my 5D3 and 7D and know that these lenses will require some adjustment on the EOS M. I hope I am wrong about the AF MA ... anyone know for sure?
The EOS-M\'s phase detect AF is on-sensor. I don\'t see why it would need AF MA, which is a solution for DSLRs where the AF sensor is physically separate and only in an ideal world at the exact same optical path distance from the sensor plane.
Interesting observation ... thanks, that is encouraging.
