IMHO avoid; the issue is not that canon can't make a wonderful eos-m camera; but they are scared to make such a camera due to other product line. This is rather stark-contrast to sony who is trying to make decent compact camera (though in their case they have other issues). No clue if this will sell well - i'm not as convinced as Klaus given the steep competition from below and above though as noted it is at time a religious war (or perhaps could be stated as brand loyalty). For me olympus would capture the 'small' camera; not sure whom I would go with for FF - if I were to buy a larger camera. Probably Sony or Pentax (Nikon usa is horrible and woudl be enough to scare me off of any nikon product; canon support is very good in usa - unlike europe but the product seem to be headed in the wrong direction)
