Canon EOS M100 announced with 24MP sensor and Dual Pixel AF

By on

Canon EOS M100 mirrorless camera officially announced. The successor to the EOS M10 brings 24.2MP sensor with Dual Pixel autofocus to the entry-level mirrorless range for the first time.

The Canon EOS M100 maintains its predecessor’s built-in Wi-Fi with NFC, tilting 3″ 1.03M-dot touchscreen, and pop-up flash. Improvements are the DIGIC 7 processor as well as 1080/30p to 1080/60p video capture and 4 fps burst shooting with continuous AF (6 fps with single AF).

Canon says it’s the slimmest and lightest of its M-series offerings yet, and touts a newly designed touch interface for its beginner-friendly Creative Assist mode.

The Canon M100 will be available in black or white. Shipping will start in October for $600 with 15-45mm F3.5-6.3 IS STM lens, or $950 with 15-45mm and 55-200mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM.
