Additional Information:
The Canon EF-M was a manual focus only camera based on the Canon EOS 1000 (see photonotes.org) with some limitations. Lenses without MF mode cannot be used with it (i.e. Canon EF 35-80mm F4.0-5.6 Power Zoom, Canon EF 35-70mm F3.5-4.5 A and 100-200mm F4.5 A), Image Stabilisation will not work and there is no depth of field preview. But ... its fully compatible with basic Speedlites such as 170M, 200M etc.
