Thanks! I've only got a point-and-shoot Canon SX260 HS and take most of my pictures with that (I get to borrow a friend's DSLR once in a while). For what it is, it's a pretty good camera. I would love to move into a DSLR and be able to play with different lens though.

Wait, wait all this on a Canon PnS?

Madness. MADNESS I SAY.

Quality compositions in general, and great use of local light on your night shots.

If you want to play with lenses, don't forget you can pick up a mirrorless, like an EOS M or Micro 3/4, and get adapters for old school lenses on the cheap.

Stunning work.
I'm going to have another look at that camera. You have truly pushed the envelop. Visibly.
Keep up the wonder, Crash. 👍​
 
Thanks guys.

Azuremen, I had no idea what a mirrorless was until you mentioned it and I looked it up. Is there a significant image quality and camera performance difference between a SLR and a mirrorless (other than the you get what you pay for adage)? Why would one choose one over the other? What does it take to use SLR lens with mirrorless cameras?

The EOS M uses the same 18MP sensor found in the T3i and up, with a custom EF-M mount. Fifty dollars gets you an EF to EF-M adapter with AF support. Image quality is the exact same as a dSLR as the same lenses can be used and the sensor is good. And because the flange distance is quite short, pretty much any SLR/dSLR lens can be used without needing an optical element in the adapter.

Handling wise, it is slower to focus than my dSLR and quickly changing ISO and such requires me to look at the screen. The touch screen makes it fairly easy to change most values and settings, and it works with my IR remote for my dSLR. The noise handling is quite good, and people generally can't tell what camera I've used for photos. Battery life is a bit lackluster on the EOS M because the screen is pretty much always on if you're using it, but batteries are cheap and caring an extra hasn't been a problem.

The size is wonderful though, as it draws very little attention and I've had little issue bringing it into places that typically ban removable lens cameras. This and the price are the big appeals to me. A few examples of shots from it with varying lenses - One, Two, Three, Four, Five.
