I have a Canon since a few weeks, because I thought, to have a
additional Zoom lens at the side of your M-equipment, with TTL Flash and
autofocus would be good for the business....
Fact is: the TTL did 2 two appertures underexposing on my slides (I had
to send the camera back). The autofocus is not quick enough, even when I
like the eye controled auto focus, you canīt just raise the camera and
shoot. The automatic releases the shutter when the focusing is done and
the picture gone.
Today I came into rain. After a few minutes the lens was "under water".
So I think, I stay with my M6 bodies and forget the Canon as soon as
possible. For a professional  there is only one: a good tool like a
Leica M.


Cheers,
