Great camera quality, Affordable price, Great battery life at 840 shots, Simple to use, Lightweight and easy to handle, Highly detailed images in low light
Doesn't have a premium look and feel
The Canon 200D is a brilliant DSLR at a pocket friendly price. The photos were very impressive and its lightweight body make it easy to handle, the camera is just missing that premium look and feel...
Compact size, Fast live-view autofocus, Articulating touchscreen, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, Easy to use
Nine-point AF system when using viewfinder, Small viewfinder, Outclassed by mirrorless rivals
Most likely not, simply because we feel the type of user who would benefit from this camera would benefit better from a mirrorless model. That said, because the SL2 is priced lower than the most direct mirrorless competition, we can't rule it out complete...
The 200D is a great introduction to DSLRs, with the patented Guided Menu function, vari-angle touchscreen and impressive ISO range, but is it enough? It may manage brilliant images, be easy to use and pack into any luggage, but so too are the M6 and 800D...
Compact size for a DSLR, Has an optical viewfinder, Good image quality in most conditions, Big range of lenses
Still larger than mirrorless rivals, Only nine AF points
Canon has done well to squeeze some of its more advanced tech into this model, while keeping it friendly for beginners. There's enough stuff here to make it a possible backup or travel model for those using some of Canon's mid-range models, too. If you'...

9-point AF system isn't the best going (especially for continuous autofocus), viewfinder has 95% field-of-view limits, live view autofocus not fully accurate, video limits to Full HD only
We genuinely weren't expecting Canon to launch a 100D replacement model because of the potential cross-over this has with the company's EOS M mirrorless series. Because, in our view, the 200D is better than any EOS M, has greater lens support and potentia...

Canon EOS 200D – Performance Investing in your first interchangeable-lens camera is a big decision to make. Two of the key things you'll want to look for are a reliably performing camera that's well supported by a wide range of lenses and accessories. The...

Great Live View AF performance, Polished touchscreen interface, Easy to use, Image quality very good, User-friendly interface
9-point AF system is somewhat basic, High price – at least for now, Plasticky finish, No 4K video
The compact proportions of the original EOS Rebel SL1 / EOS 100D meant it was a truly novel camera amongst its peers, but the slightly bulkier proportions of the EOS Rebel SL2 / EOS 200D make it feel more like a slightly pared-down Rebel T7i / 800D than a...

Smart finish and very good handling, Super-small and lightweight, Fast and responsive in operation
9-point AF system is somewhat basic, High price – at least for now, Hollow-feeling shutter release button
From the Guided UI and revised exterior design to the fast AF system and responsive touchscreen, this is a camera that feels great, and appears to perform as we'd expect it to. It's small, light, easy to use and responsive – if the image quality proves to...
