Harvey Norman having a "sale" on Cameras atm, good stand out is this one.

In Summmary:
'+' Intuitive Touch Screen Interface
- Sluggish Auto-Focus
- Coarse AF points
- Lack of Lens options
- A 'Me-too' product that is focusing more on protecting markets than on innovating
I am not a Canonian but you can get an adaptor (a bit costly at ~$200 though) and get any Canon DSLR mount lenses attached to this little beast.
Slow autofocus - it is applicable to pretty much all mirrorless cameras.
Canon is protecting market ? From my perspective they give Canon people more options. If I was one of them I would get it for sure.
AF is fast done of the other mirror less cameras…pick up an Olympus EP3 or EM5 or even a NEX6 and you will see what a mirror less can do with AF. The Nikon 1, albeit with a much smaller sensor puts DSLRs to shame when it comes to AF speed with native lenses.
I own a Nikon J1 and an EP3 as well as some Nikon DSLRs (D700/D300)…..
Like the Nikon 1 this is very much an attempt to stem the flow of buyers turning to Olympus and Sony for a mirror less camera and trying to retain existing users in the brand. You said it yourself…. If you used canon you would get one……
Well-said.
Panasonic's mirrorless range also do decent AF, particularly the G5 (albeit bigger than this, but it has a viewfinder).
Canon is playing catch-up with mirrorless and it shows.
Their DSLR range is strong as always though.
I predict we'll see a further slide in price here, without rebates.
Great price but as I already have a 7d and an S95 (which is great) I'm not sure can justify
I've got an s95 as well.
Sorry mate but you cannot compare APS-C sensor camera with a good but still P&S one with a tiny sensor.
Foma2
He also stated he has a 7d, which is an SLR.
I don't think his comment was about comparisons; more about stating that he already has 2 cameras and can't justify purchasing another (probably a common occurrence with ozbargain visitors; I know I can relate…)
Can anyone confirm if the car cams are on special?
Great price…..i got mine from Jb for the same price 2 days ago. The adaptor was 132 for me when buying with the camera. The 22mm lense is great.
The small battery trying to power the motors in large EF lenses with the adaptor. Like trying to power a Tv off a 9v battery.
Great price.
