Canon EOS M100 Mirrorless Camera w/ 15-45mm Lens - Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and NFC Enabled (Black) (2209C011)

If you're looking for a portable and powerful little mirrorless camera, then look no further. The M100 packs a punch with a 24MP APS-C sensor, a new Digic 7 processor (which is competitive with much more expensive DSLR's), the option to changes lenses (Canon EF-M line) and offers an easy to use interface via a touchscreen. I've read some reviews where people say that this camera is short on physical controls – no argument here, but is that a bad thing? It was designed that way on purpose and gives you access to all camera settings via a touchscreen interface, which most consumers (non-professionals) would probably prefer anyway. This camera was designed to provide a portable solution with relatively high-end performance. The M100 sports a solid Auto mode, but, if you're interested in stretching yourself creatively or controlling the camera manually (Aperture, ISO, Shutter Speed), you have to ability to do that with this camera. The Canon menu is, in my opinion, the easiest to navigate, and is very straightforward. Another great feature of this camera is the Dual-Pixel Autofocus that Canon utilizes on much more expensive cameras in their line-up. While taking video and photos, this camera is very quick to focus and doesn't usually fall prey to the dreaded autofocus hunt while capturing content. I personally like the overall design of the camera. It also features WiFi and Bluetooth for easy sharing with my cell phone, so that I can quickly edit and post images no matter where I am. The M100 also features a flip-up LCD screen that allows you to see yourself while filming and taking photos – lending itself to be a great vlogging camera. However, the camera doesn't have a microphone jack, so you would either have to accept internal audio (which is pretty decent in quiet environments) or capture audio externally and sync in post. All those good things being said, there are some features that this camera doesn't have. The M100 doesn't have 4K, a large lens line-up like Sony, an ergonomic grip, or a hot shoe. The important thing to remember about the M100 is that it is designed to be a compact APS-C mirrorless camera, that gives the user the freedom to change lenses and grow with the camera. It is designed as an entry-level camera, and to be approachable for people who're starting to take photography more seriously. It takes beautiful photos and video, is easy to use and is a serious upgrade in image quality from a cell phone (yes, even Apple and Samsung products). While there are some improvements that Canon can certainly make regarding their mirrorless camera offerings, I firmly believe that the M100 provides the best VALUE in their entire mirrorless line and I have been very happy with the quality of this camera, especially given the price.

I've played with my Canon M-100 for the better part of 5 months and thought I'd share a few observations. Make no mistake - this is a fine, lightweight mirrorless camera which performs well under most lighting conditions and which will make most buyers very happy with its long battery life, multiple shooting modes, and ability to swap out lenses. I think it is especially ideal out-of-the-box for travel/landscape photos as the zoom lens that comes with the kit is limited to wider angles. This is part of the reason why I bought it (the other reason was because I knew I could swap in an adapter and use some old prime manual Minolta lenses with the M100's body). It easily fits in an over-the-shoulder bag with room to spare and is very light if work around the neck. I also love the flip-screen viewscreen as it lets me shoot from the waist almost as if I had an old Rolleiflex twin lens. A few caveats, then. Hopefully these won't be deal-breakers. 1. There's no viewfinder. 2. The view screen doubles as a touch-sensitive screen from which you will access most controls. The amount of control you can get through the on-camera knobs is negligible. (This shouldn't be a problem for younger users who are used to tap screens on iPads and iPhones, but will give some grief to those who are more comfortable with manual dialing). 3. There's a shutter noise that can't be turned off. This could be a problem if you are a street photographer or if you are photographing a skittish small animal. (All other noises can be shut off easily.) 4. No matter how I've tried, I haven't been able to transfer photos from the camera to my smartphone via either Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. So I gave up and just connect the camera via a cord. 5. It can be a chore both accessing the memory card and getting it in and out of its slot. 6. This is an APS-C sensor and not a full-frame sensor. As I've mentioned, I love this camera and take it out for photo sessions at least once a week when travelling. However, all of the caveats I've mentioned are things that I think should be clear to the consumer prior to buying and that's why I've mentioned them. Happy shooting!

Someone has to be the first, and I guess I'm it. I'm an amateur photographer who has been playing with SLR cameras for the last 40 years. This camera was bought to replace a Canon S95, and potentially be the backup to my 5D2, which has been intermittently reporting the dreaded "Error 30" shutter issue recently. Right now, Amazon are offering a great bundle of this body (comes with the 15-45mm kit lens) and an EF to EF-M adapter, saving you around $100 - appealing to the Canon photographer. The appeal of being able to use some of my nicer EF lenses was what swayed me to purchase. The camera is slightly bigger than the S95 body and is nice to hold, has a good metal/rubber grip finish and feels sturdy. The kit lens pictures are exactly what you would expect from such a lens; it is not very sharp unless stopped down, but it's OK for the casual photographer, and 15-45mm is a good outdoor range for landscapes and such. Focus is relatively quick and mostly good, typical Canon. Taking a photo produces a satisfying shutter noise, and makes it feel like a 'real' SLR camera. The screen is excellent and the tilt function will finally let me and the wife take selfies without guessing (although I often love the surprise of how they turn out). The menu system is already driving me crazy, but I will caveat this with the fact that I have had limited playtime so far. Canon, in their 'wisdom' decided to do away with what are the most often used features of my little S95; that being Av and Tv (aperture priority and shutter speed priority) direct selection on the top rotary selector. This may be partially overcome via assigning functions to virtual buttons, and there also appears to be a way to specify the order and number of quick access functions, which will help. Note that the touch screen is pretty much how you interact with the camera functions to get to the nitty-gritty manual modes, and it's a variation of the typical Canon interface we all know, so takes time to get used to. All of this only matters if you like to get involved in your pictures and be a little creative. The menu is what's knocking down this review a star. Maybe I'll get used to it. The manual is a joke also. It's oversimplified to the point of uselessness. For instance, "Aperture Priority" is not even in the index of functions. I am finding this camera to be a mish-mash of pro features but caged in an interface geared for the casual photographer. So, I'll still be using my 5D more often than not, but this appears to be a great camera when needing a smaller, portable setup. As often is said; the best camera for the occasion is the one you have with you in that moment, right? I'm looking forward to trying out the 22mm prime lens offered, let's see how that sharpens things up. I will update this after I have had a chance to properly road test this, and also see how it performs with my EF lenses, no matter how awkward that will look! I still have to test out the the wireless functions too. EDIT 11/2017: I returned this camera along with the 22mm prime lens. The whole setup simply was not sharp or wide enough for me in landscape scenarios, so, I am back to my little S95, hunting for another big DSLR to replace the 5D.

Perfect camera for me. I'm not a 'photo guy' type, I just recognize the difference between a smartphone shot and a 'real' camera shot, and I want photos of my kids to look as good as my father's that were taken on a Canon film SLR years ago. I have a rudimentary understanding of aperture, f-stop, etc., but I don't want to mess with that stuff. I just want point and shoot convenience with high quality. So this camera's large sensor, good optics, and simpler interface are perfect for me. I used to have a Sony RX100, and was disappointed with the photos it produced, but this little gem can reliably get shots that look like they were shot by a pro on a big DSLR without any muss or fuss from me. I have only ever used to auto setting on this camera, and that's exactly what I want. I think a big part is the autofocus system which I find to be fast, reliable, and easy to use via the touchscreen interface. So if you're a 'serious photographer' and coming from a DSLR, I can see how this camera's feature set may annoy you. But this camera is not for you. It is great for people like me who appreciate quality photography but don't want to have to master a DSLR to get it.

Absolutely stunning pictures. The colors, the sharpness and the level of detail have to be seen to be believed. This is leagues ahead of any smartphone and on par with DSLRs. (I used to own a Nikon DSLR.) Very easy to use. Very fast. Decent battery lifeS. The pictures tend to come out better than what you see on the LCD screen. The app takes a few minutes to set up but once you get the hang of it, it’s trivial to use. The camera body is very small but the lens takes up space. That’s the price you pay for a range of lenses. Overall, an absolutely spectacular little camera and well worth it if memories and pictures matter.

My main camera is an 80D and I have a large selection of lenses...needless to say, not very portable or easy to travel with. This thing is great and takes very good photos and video. I love the menu interface and presets too. It doesn't take long to get familiar with the UI. I'll probably get a couple more of the EF-M lenses so I don't have to adapt my EF/EF-S lenses (I use the Fotodiox for those...just as good as Canon's adapter). I'm looking at the 11-22 and the 18-150. I definitely recommend this camera...whether you're a beginner or seasoned professional looking for a secondary camera.

I just got my camera and I am a noob. Its pretty easy to use, but what I am most surprised with was all the gear that came with the camera. Ill most likely get my own later on, but my camera was ready to be used since its protector! There were tripods and cleaners and filter lens - i am super excited to use this! the wifi and bluetooth is great! The camera is also lightweight and the bag it came in is perfect! I may invest in one with more compartments but its perfect right now. Will definitely check this buyer out for future purchases!

You will be sorely disappointed. Here are the top four reasons why: 1. It automatically stops shooting video after ten minutes. 2. If you continue shooting 1080p60 video after ten minutes, it may tell you to wait for the camera to cool. 3. If you want to capture the HDMI output, you cannot capture for more than 30 minutes before the "display" turns off, ending HDMI output (camera auto power off can fortunately be completely disabled, but display power off has no options longer than 30 minutes and affects HDMI output as well) 4. If you want to capture HDMI output, you cannot capture without focus squares either always or occasionally showing in the HDMI output (it mirrors what would be on the camera's display which goes black during hdmi output) So in short, if you think you will use this camera to shoot 1080p60 video.. either in camera or via HDMI capture, find another product. The specifications are very misleading. I don't understand how you can make 1080p60 claims for cameras if I can't just keep shooting video until the flash card runs out of space... and not being able to turn off the viewfinder-like overlays on the hdmi output makes any possible alternatives impossible.

La carte memoire n'est pas incluse

Gostei muito da qualidade e dela ser capaz de transferir por wi-fi. Mas não tem entrada pra microfone externo. E a lente embaça internamente com a umidade.

Muy buena cámara, superó mis espectativas. El servicio y atención del proveedor (MAKACEL) es excelente.

Have just used it for stills so far. And really really happy with it. Kit lens is sharp. I got cheap chinese secondary lens which has greatly helped with my creativity. It's an awesome little camera. Heck I can even fit it in amazonbasics pouch meant for p&s digicams. For beginners, I would highly recommend.

The Canon M100 has received the gold award from DPreview, which also selected it as the best interchangeable lens Camera Bargain of 2018. The website Camera Decision considers it better than the over-$7500 Leica M10 in almost every aspect--this is quite a blasphemy! But to be fair to the Leica M10, its image quality at high ISO is far better thanks to its larger sensor (full-frame). Having owned & sold off several DSLR in the past, the light-weight pocketable M100 revives my enjoyment of photography and photo editing. I love the simplicity of its user-interface which relies on both the menu button and the touch screen. Its lack of dials and buttons without sacrificing the ease of access to advanced features is a plus in my opinion. Surely, Canon has designed the M100 as a step-up for smartphone users, but unless you are into low-light fast action sports photography or 4k-movie making, there is nothing essential that one would miss in this camera. It benefits from Canon's latest technology in APS-C sensors, dual-pixel auto-focus, and DIGIC 7 processor as well as Wi-Fi with NFC and Bluetooth connectivity. Having said that, I find it bizarre than Canon continues to use the obsolete mini-USB instead of micro-USB for photo transfer. Another gripe is that the battery must be removed to charge. Good idea to have extra batteries for an extensive photo session or use of the built-in flash. The price for the cam's small size and light weight is its poor grip for people with large hands, who will also find annoying the accidental touching of the LCD by the base of the thumb. But both issues can be resolved with a leather half-case. I further enhanced the grip with a home-made thick leather middle-finger rest-pad glued to the leather case. Top-quality leather half-case can be had for CA$12 if one looks around and can wait for shipping. The user manual (from Canon website) is full of repetitive colorful diagrams, pretty tedious to flip through. "The Canon EOS M100 Set Up Guide with Tips and Tricks" at Wim Arys Photography is far more useful--especially for experienced users. While the kit lens EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 is versatile, I have a weakness for fast primes and have since acquired the following additional lenses, in addition to my assortment of old EF-S lenses: - Canon Pancake EF-M 22mm f2 STM - Canon EF-S 55-250 f3.4-6 IS STM. This lens needs an adapter to fit the EF-M mount. I have a review of this lens on Amazon I'm very pleased with the above setup, and have particularly enjoyed the following affordable manual primes by 7Artisans, all with metal construction and EF-M mount: - 7Artisans Fisheye 7.5mm f2.6 - 7Artisans 35mm f1.2 - 7Artisans 55mm f1.4 All of the above gear costs, amazingly, only a bit more than what I paid for the fixed-lens Sony RX100-M2 in 2013, but quite a bit less than the current RX100-M6. As to image quality, the RX100 with its 1"-sensor is no match for the Canon M100, which also offers a lot more fun & satisfaction as well. If you don't like tinkering with settings, just use the Auto mode which turns the M100 into a point-and-shoot camera but can produce excellent image quality most of the time, especially in low light situations that smartphones are hopeless. Update after one year of use: I'm still enjoying the M100, and have no need to upgrade to the M200 or M6 which have 4K video and more MPixels on the same APS-C sensor--both of which I couldn't care less. A few years from now I may upgrade when Canon makes the M-model with IBIS for less than $500. The current price of $360 for the M100 is a steal. I think manufacturers should stop cramming more pixels in the same small sensor. Being interested primarily in family and travel photos, I was quite happy with only 2 Mpixels in the Olympus 2100uz back in the year 2000. I'll pay a lot more for 6-stop image stabilizer and clean image at 128000 ISO.
