Verdictwhich should you buy?
EOS R100 — First Camera / Beginner Photography: The R100 does the basics well at the lowest possible price point. Its main value is as a gateway into the Canon RF ecosystem — the lenses you buy now will work on any Canon body you upgrade to later. Modest ambitions, reliably met.
X-T30 III — Enthusiast Photography, Travel & Street: 40MP resolution and flagship-level subject detection in the most affordable X-T body — the best value Fujifilm camera ever made.
