I agree, Steve.
In my several months of owning, using, and playing around with an origina EOS M, I've been quite impressed with many many things, but most of all the quality of the images it produces. I think the M3 may up the ante....not for photographers in general, but rather for that small subset of EOS M fans like myself.
As a minor note, on the EOS M dpreview forum, there are several threads about a sale which Amazon Japan is currently having on the EOS M3 + the EVF - for a ridiculously low price. There are a few hoops to jump through - for example, if you live in the US (like I do), you must establish an account with a Japanese 'reseller' (like Tenso) and then when you put in your purchase order to Amazon Japan, you have them ship it to Tenso, who then ships it to you -
But the overall initial price seem quite low - appro $490 USD for the M3 body + a clunky but nonetheless cool and functional (and pricey, by itself) EVF - so I'm tempted to preorder one.
