GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Casual & Everyday — EOS M100 (2017): The EOS M100 is Canon's most stripped-back EF-M camera — small, simple, and focused on making great photos easy. Dual Pixel AF, 24MP, and a tilting touchscreen are its strengths; no EVF, no IBIS, and no 4K are its compromises. A solid, affordable first mirrorless for casual photographers who want more than a smartphone.
Enthusiast Photographers Who Prioritise Style And Resolution — X-T50 (2024): The most stylish 40MP camera available — a Film Simulation dial, a compact body, and flagship sensor quality.
