GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Casual & Everyday — EOS M10 (2015): The EOS M10 is Canon's most basic EF-M mirrorless — small, stylish, and approachable, with 18MP and a tilting touchscreen. It lacks the specs of newer EF-M bodies but delivers solid results for everyday shooting and represents an affordable entry into the Canon mirrorless ecosystem.
High-Resolution Landscape, Commercial & Studio Photography — Lumix S1R (2019): A 47MP full-frame resolution powerhouse with one of the finest EVFs ever made — the S1R rewards careful, deliberate photography.
