Canon EOS R100 Mirrorless

The mirrorless Canon EOS R100 DSLR camera is a high-end entry-level DSLR that offers good performance and a host of advanced features. For the price, this lightweight DSLR represents close to the pinnacle of Canon's technological prowess for the price point. With its full-frame 24 megapixel CMOS sensor and impressive Digic 8 processor, the EOS R100 produces images with remarkable clarity and detail, making it a suitable choice for both experienced users and amateurs. Although more experienced users may want more in terms of manual control. And I have to say, this camera reminds me a little bit of a bridge camera because of its size and very basic controls.
 



The lack of a touchscreen display has some people scratching their heads, but when did this become a vital necessity. One of the standout features of the Canon EOS R100 is its advanced autofocus system. Equipped with Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology, this camera offers respectable and fairly precise autofocus, ensuring that most shots are sharp and in focus. Whether photographing fast-moving subjects or shooting in challenging lighting conditions, the autofocus system of the EOS R100 can deliver really good results. Max shutter speed is also fast @ 1/4000.

Additionally, the camera boasts a decent burst shooting rate of 3.5 frames per second with constant AF -AE tracking and 6.5 frames per second when turned off.

In terms of video capabilities, the Canon EOS R100 leaves not much to be desired. It can shoot stunning 4K video at up to 24 frames per second, providing videographers / vloggers and students with a camera that's easy to use and can fit most of their needs on a low budget. Although there are some people are moaning about it not having 4K @ 30fps, and I can see why.

More features include a built-in microphone and headphone jack for capturing and monitoring audio, allowing users to create high quality video production.

Overall, the Canon EOS R100 DSLR camera is an outstanding choice for photographers and videographers seeking excellent image quality and performance. It's small size, low price, robust construction, advanced autofocus system, and impressive video capabilities make it a versatile camera suitable for a wide range of applications.

But so many cameras fit all this criteria, so really its just a case of which one catches your attention and which one appeals to you more when you research. I personally wouldn't buy this camera because there are better options for people who this camera is targeted at, including some of the great offerings from Panasonic and Fujifilm. And also the Canon R50. While it is a bit more expensive, it is the better buy.
