Verdictwhich should you buy?

EOS M200 — Casual & Vlogging: 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.

X-E3 — Street & Travel: The X-E3 is the lightest Fujifilm interchangeable-lens camera with the 24.3MP X-Trans III sensor. Its slim, compact body appeals to street photographers who find the X-T line too bulky. The touchscreen joystick and Bluetooth connection are welcome additions. 4K is technically available but limited to 15fps — this is a stills-first camera. An excellent compact travel camera at used-market prices.
