The Canon EOS M100 is a predictable addition to the EOS M mirrorless range, but no less exciting for that. It's designed as a first step up from a smartphone, an introduction to ‘real' photography and, Canon hopes, a stepping stone to a more complex mirrorless model like the M5 or M6.

No USB charging in-camera; Limited native EF-M lens line-up; No remote live video control; No built-in viewfinder or 4k video

The EOS M100 is Canon's smallest and cheapest mirrorless interchangeable lens camera, and is perfectly suited to its intended audience of smartphone users looking to step up their photography game.

Meet the Canon EOS M100. It's a new entry-level mirrorless camera in Canon's EOS M range, aimed squarely at those looking to find their first ‘proper' camera for better pictures. In form and function, the camera represents a logical upgrade from using a smart phone.

The Canon EOS M100 has been announced and is slated to hit the streets in Oct 2017. We'll get our hands on a production model as soon as it becomes available, but in the meantime, based on my experience with similar/feature-sharing models, here are my expectations for this camera.
