Those seeking a portable and easy-to-use interchangeable lens camera with an optical viewfinder. Travelers who want to effortlessly share their photos with friends on social media
Nevertheless
The camera doesn't seem intimidating like its more sophisticated siblings might be to those with no DSLR experience
And that's the real point
As you'd expect
The touchscreen occupies most of the back of the camera
And it feels as robust

Modest number of AF points
Small optical viewfinder

Most compact DSLR currently on the market
JPEGs have pleasing
Saturated color
Lots of detail captured in Raw
Excellent Dual Pixel AF system
Reliable subject tracking in live view & movie mode
Fully articulating LCD has good touch features
Feature A
9 AF limits scope for subject tracking with viewfinder
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'...
World's lightest DSLR with vari-angle screen, Fast focusing performance in Live View, Intuitive layout of buttons and dials, Guided user interface helps beginners learn the key controls and settings
Basic arrangement of 9 AF points, Single scroll dial on the top plate

Tilt-angle touchscreen is great to use, small scale and lightweight for a DSLR, high standard of image quality, lots of EF lenses to grow into, Guided UI makes it more accessible for newcomers (with room to grow), great battery life
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...
We knew it would only be a matter of time before Dual Pixel CMOS AF and the latest DIGIC 7 image processor were handed down to this level of DSLR. With their latest APS-C DSLR release, Canon has brought the EOS 200D bang up to date by incorporating featur...

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. But we're really glad to see the 200D because it represents Canon's strong suit in a small-sca...
