Canon has just introduced the new EOS R100, and it is a camera from the EOS R family of interchangeable lenses that seeks to encourage all those interested in starting in the world of photography. And it is that its characteristics seek to encourage those users who want to start in the world of photography, also offering an incredibly compact size that will encourage you to always carry it with you.
Canon EOS R100, the smallest Canon
You just have to take a look at it to see that we are dealing with a really tiny camera that will quickly make you smile. And it is that this Canon R100 is downright small, although we must remember that the R50 already offered the same body. The novelty this time is that this new model is even closer to beginner users, with a sensor 24.1 megapixel APS-C with which to capture all kinds of details and be able to recordr videos in 4K/25fps.
This sensor offers the technology of Dual Pixel CMOS autofocuswhich allows you to achieve fast focus detection to capture details with great precision, and you can also enjoy eye tracking so that portraits come out perfect.
Understated, but ideal for beginning users
Burst mode will fire at a speed of 6.5 images per second in One Shot autofocus mode, and 3.5 images per second in continuous autofocus mode. They are not numbers to shoot in a football game at a professional level, but excellent to start in this photography.
And it is that the camera does not offer too many technical flourishes, such as its screen, which is 3 inches with 1 million pixels of resolution and fixed without any type of pivoting system. It is, as we say, a simple and hassle-free setup.
To point and shoot
The Canon R100 is possibly the most point & shoot evil camera that we have seen in a long time. And that’s great for the type of audience it’s aimed at, as it offers the ease and automatic modes of the usual compact, but with the versatility and more advanced modes that an interchangeable lens system can offer.
That is where the new fixed focal lens comes in, the RF 28 f/2.8 STM, a lens that stands out for its dimensions (it is the lightest and smallest lens to date) and which, when placed on the camera, gives life to a Very small set that encourages you to take it to all kinds of trips and events.
Price and release date
This new Canon EOS R100 will arrive in stores at the end of June with a price of 739 euros (body only), and the new RF 28mm lens will go on sale around the same dates with an official price of 399 euros.
