Canon has launched an upgrade to its EOS M10 mirrorless interchangeable lens camera with the introduction of the EOS M100. The new camera keeps the same compact form factor but gets a boost in terms of a higher resolution sensor, better autofocus, and slightly improved video capabilities. The camera will be available in Black or White from October for a retail price of $599.99 (roughly Rs. 40,700), with the EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM lens. You will also be able to pick it up with the EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM lens and EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM lens for $949.99 (roughly Rs. 64,600).
The EOS M100 features a 24.2-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor and Canon’s DIGIC 7 image processor. The faster processor helps shoot 4fps burst photos and up to 6.1fps with a fixed focus. Video recording also get s a slight boost with the camera now being able to shoot at a higher framerate than before (1080p, 60fps). Other features include ISO range of 100-25,600, in-camera RAW conversion, self-portrait mode thanks to the 180-degree 3-inch touchscreen and various creative filters. For autofocus, the M100 gets Canon’s Dual Pixel autofocus for faster focus shifting when shooting video. There’s also built-in Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and NFC for connecting the camera to your smartphone.

In an increasingly visual world, high-quality images are the ones that truly stand out from the crowd,” said Yuichi Ishizuka, president and COO, Canon U.S.A. “The new Canon EOS M100 can be the ideal camera for those eager to step up their images and share their creative vision without sacrificing image quality or on-the-go performance.”
