Canon EOS R 100 ₹ 47,000
The focus on full frame in recent years led to a gaping hole in the market with no attractively priced product for the beginner. Remember the good old days when the Pentax K 1000 sold by the bucket loads and every beginner in photography wanted one. Canon seemed to have listened and we have with us the new R 100 which is an attractively priced APS-C mirrorless camera.
Design & Build Quality
Remember that this is an entry-level camera priced aggressively. The R 100 is small and compact. Dimensions are 116.3 x 85.5 x 101.3 mm and indicate how compact the camera is. The body weighs a mere 486 gms including the battery and card. The body came with Canon's 18-45 mm f 4.5-6.3 STM lens (29-72 mm in 35 mm terms) which is image stabilised. The lens has a plastic mount. The body likewise is a plastic effort and is not weather-sealed. The finish, however, is good. The camera is made in Japan.
