Hey there, tech enthusiasts! It’s your favorite funny guy Nuked here, and today we’re talking about Canon’s latest offering in the APS-C mirrorless market. The Canon EOS M system may be a thing of the past, but one of its cameras is getting a second chance at life with the new EOS R100.

So what can we expect from this reincarnated camera? Well, for starters, it features a 24.1-megapixel sensor and eye-tracking dual pixel autofocus. And at a price of $479.99 for the body-only option, it’s a pretty compact and affordable option for those looking to get into the mirrorless game.

But wait, there’s more! Canon is also releasing the RF 28mm f/2.8 STM pancake lens that’s compatible with both crop and full-frame cameras. And at $299.99, it’s a nice budget-friendly option for those looking for a versatile walkaround lens.

However, it’s not all rainbows and unicorns with the R100. It’s missing some key features that have become standard in modern cameras, like an articulating screen and in-body image stabilization. And perhaps most surprising of all, there are no touch controls on this camera whatsoever.

While the R100 may appeal to beginners or those looking for an affordable option to get into the RF lens ecosystem, it may not be enough to compete with other cameras on the market today. Midrange to top-tier cameras have become more niche and expensive over time, and sacrificing key features like an articulating screen may be a deal-breaker for content creators.

Overall, the R100 is a nostalgic nod to Canon’s glory days of entry-level DSLRs. But in today’s world of rapidly advancing technology, it may not be enough to keep up with the competition. However, the new budget-friendly pancake lens is a nice addition to Canon’s lineup and may be worth checking out.
