<p>Canon's first mirrorless camera, the EOS M, received mixed reviews when it first hit the market, mainly because of its slow autofocus. Canon is hoping to address those concerns with the newly-announced EOS M2, but it looks like this one might not even make it to the US or Europe.</p><p>The camera giant's first foray into the mirrorless market came last year with the EOS M, and while image quality impressed reviewers, the camera's underwhelming AF system doomed it to less-than-stellar sales in a mirrorless ILC market that was pretty well stacked.</p><p>Now, Canon Japan and China have both announced the arrival of the EOS M2 and, although the design remains mostly unchanged, it looks like the internals got a few significant boosts.</p><p>First off, both of the major issues with the EOS M those being: the sluggish AF and the fact that the screen blacked out when you took a picture have been addressed.
