GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Casual & Vlogging — EOS M200 (2019): The EOS M200 is Canon's most approachable APS-C mirrorless — slim, light, and simple, with Dual Pixel AF that makes sharp results effortless. No EVF and no IBIS keep it firmly entry-level, but for first-time buyers stepping up from a smartphone, it delivers reliable, confidence-inspiring results in a genuinely compact package.
Travel & Vlogging — PowerShot G7X Mark II (2016): The G7X Mark II is one of the most popular compact cameras ever made — and for good reason. A fast f/1.8-2.8 lens, 20MP 1-inch sensor, flip-up selfie screen, and Micro USB charging combine in one of the most vlog-friendly compact cameras available. No 4K and no EVF are the main compromises, but the G7X II remains outstanding value on the used market.
