Ease of operation is one of the key selling points of the Canon EOS M100, a fun, compact and mirrorless camera. Even though this is considered an entry-level model for those new to interchangeable-lens cameras, it boasts a lot of top-line features.
The ability to access all operations through the M100's full touchscreen interface is one of the big reasons why this model is the epitome of easiness. It's not just a touch screen - it's a 180-degree tilt screen too.
It's just as easy to achieve a fast and precise focus, thanks to dual pixel CMOS AF, touted by Canon as their most advanced autofocus system.
As well as upgrading the sensor to 24.2-megapixels, up from 18-megapixels on previous models, Canon has introduced a new and improved image processor as well, for better overall performance and results.
Experimenting with a new lens from time to time is just part of a photographer's journey as they gain confidence. The M100 gives the user the chance to mix and match with a range of quality lens types - it takes Canon EF-M lenses, as well as EF and EF-S lenses.
If you can change the lens, why not change the colour as well? The M100 gives the user a choice of nine different-coloured jackets to suit the user's individual preferences.

The EOS M100, which was announced by Canon at the end of August in 2017, replaces the two-year-old EOS M10 at the entry level in Canon's mirrorless camera line-up. Marginally larger and heavier, the new model features higher resolution, the latest DIGIC 7 processor and Dual Pixel CMOS AF.
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.
Canon has done a good job with the EOS M100. It doesn't sacrifice any image quality or focus speed compared with the higher-end models in the line. Instead, it focuses on making things easy and making the camera portable enough so that you won't mind taking it with you to events or on vacation.
Very compact; 24MP APS-C image sensor; Fast autofocus; 6.1fps burst shooting; Tilting touch LCD; Built-in flash; Wi-Fi and Bluetooth

A bit of background, I have a Canon DSLR and its share of heavy lenses and was looking for a walk around camera without loosing too much quality. I also own a Sony a6500, which should have filled the bill, but luminous lenses arena€?t part of Sony APS-C lenses lineup, and third party lenses are big.

Ok for price
This is a good entry level camera. User friendly and compact. I was disappointed the screen had fingermarks on it, out of the box, indicating to me it had been handled before bought it, supposedly brand new when I purchased it online.
Excellent compact version mirrorless version of a DSLR. Fully functioning as if a larger DSLR - which I understand it is based. Few external controls but all controls and settings can be accessed via the available buttons and touch screen.
The Canon EOS M100 replaces the M10 and features a 24 megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor, Full HD video recording, a 3inch tilting touch-screen, creative filters, and numerous shooting modes to make it easy to shoot with. The M100 has an RRP of £449 body only.

Casual snapshooters and family documentarians take note: The Canon EOS M100 ($599 with 15-45mm lens) is a mirrorless camera that gets a lot right. It corrects the missteps that Canon made with its first mirrorless releases, delivering speedy autofocus and solid image quality. It's one of the smaller mirrorless models on the market, with a big touch LCD that will appeal to smartphone photographers. It's not our absolute favorite affordable mirrorless option—that's the Sony a6000—but it's a fine alternative for casual shooters who don't mind the absence of an EVF. Design The M100 ($649.00 at Amazon) is one of the smaller mirrorless cameras out there. It measures 2.6 by 4.3 by 1.4 inches (HWD) without a lens and weighs about 10.7 ounces. The included 15-45mm zoom is well matched, coming in at 1.8 by 2.4 inches (HD) and adding just 4.6 ounces. The entire package weighs less than a pound and, while it won't fit in your pocket, it also won't take up that much room in a bag. Similar P...
