Canon EOS M100 Pro Reviews

Canon's mirrorless EOS M100 camera delivers SLR image quality and fast autofocus in a compact build with a touch LCD that makes it easy for anyone to use.

The Canon EOS M100 is a compact mirrorless camera, that is easy to use, and results from the camera are good, with colourful images, that are detailed with well controlled noise. The majority of lenses available for the camera are compact, and perform reasonably well, making the camera system quite appealing if you're looking for a compact camera with DSLR image quality. If you're looking to use it as mostly a point and shoot camera, then the M100 would be a good choice. However, if you're likely to want to advance beyond point and shoot, then the lack of flash hot-shoe and external controls makes it less suitable. For beginners, this would make a great mirrorless camera, but for photographers, there are simply too many other choices available, with better features and often a lower price. The next step up, from Canon, would be the Canon EOS M6, which is much more suitable for serious photographers.

The EOS M100 is Canon's smallest and cheapest mirrorless interchangeable lens camera, and is perfectly suited to its intended audience of smartphone users looking to step up their photography game. The touchscreen controls are polished and approachable, image quality is great, and the full auto mode works impressively well. Video and burst shooting specifications are behind the competition, but overall, the M100 is a solid camera that represents a great value in Canon's lineup.
