#10
I like the 100D, on paper at least. Maybe my shooting style is not mainstream, but it isn't a small niche either. I do often use continuous AF and as far as I'm aware no bigger sensor mirrorless can provide that yet. So in that sense, if you put a gun to my head and said I had to pick either the M or 100D, it would be the latter without hesitation. However much people moan about the 9 point diamond, even if you only ever use centre point it still beats contrast for me. And I'd take 4 fps with tracking AF over say 10fps where you have to guess what you're pointing at after the first shot.

Of course, different people have different needs, and if you want smallest, the M may be more interesting (or any other mirrorless system).

How much of a factor is a smaller body if you have the same DSLR lenses? I can't see Canon bringing out many more small lenses, outside the possibility of more pancakes not far from the existing 40mm. I guess that is the tricky part. Will the 100D swing people who wouldn't have boguht any previous DSLR due to its size?

The new phase AF, we'll have to see if it is only a coverage update or it they managed to put some speed behind it too. Obviously it would likely go into the next M.
