Canon EOS M2 is the second mirrorless interchangeable-lens camera produced by Canon.[1]

Design

The camera, which is nearly identical to its predecessor, the Canon EOS M, has a 3-inch touchscreen with support for multi-touch gestures such as pinch to zoom, swiping and tapping. The camera uses an 18 megapixel APS-C sensor and a DIGIC 5 processor, similar to the Canon EOS 650D.

The camera uses an EF-M lens mount which can accept Canon EF and EF-S lenses with an additional mount adapter. Three EF-M lenses, 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM, a 22mm f/2 STM pancake lens and an 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, are available.

The camera does not include a built-in flash, but launched with a dedicated Canon Speedlite 90EX, which will be a part of a bundle pack for this camera in some markets. The camera is capable of supporting Standard Definition video at 30fps or 25fps, 720p HD video at 60fps or 50fps, and 1080p Full HD video at 30fps, 24fps or 25fps.
