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.

Commercial, Studio & Fine Art Professionals — Hasselblad X2D 100C (2022): 100MP, IBIS, and phase-detect AF in the smallest medium-format mirrorless — the X2D 100C sets the benchmark for image quality.
