What customers say about "Size & Weight"

Canon EOS 200D

I have this camera for two months now. at first i was very vary of buying it mainly due to its size.
It is only half the size of old Canon camera. So powerful seldom needs flash. I bought body only as I have a good selection of lens and accessories already.
For an entry level camera then this camera punches above its weight. It’s easy to use and the picture quality is very good.
The build quality is superb. It's compact and made from quite a robust composite plastic which has a nice grippy feel to it. This makes the camera very light and comfortable to hold.
The body of the camera feels light and quite plasticky. you do want to protect it from bumps and scratches.

Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II Compact System Camera in Black + 14-42 EZ Lens

Easy and light to carry around, great quality of photos & video for the size/price.
One really special thing about it is its lovely neat size, compared to the bulk of the old one.
Fantastic Medium sized Camera. Easy to use and great photos, highly recommended.
I was influenced by the compact body size (with standard pancake lens) and the extensive feature list.
I bought this camera recently as I wanted a small camera with the characteristics of an SLR without the weight.

What customers say about "Imaging"

Canon EOS 200D

The picture quality is also amazing!! The photos come out crisp with a nice balance of colours.
I've taken some really nice photos with this camera. I'd recommend it to anyone starting out with DSLRs.
The camera performed well although I probably wouldn’t use an ISO beyond 800 or 1600. But that said the image quality was good.
Out of the box it performs very well and super happy with the results of still and moving image, especially impressed with low light performance. Superb.
Really happy with the quality of images and also the easy WiFi picture transfer to the phone!

Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II Compact System Camera in Black + 14-42 EZ Lens

This is a very good camera, image quality from the 14-42 lens is very good.
Even though it's only 16MP, the image quality is very good as the smaller sensor isn't overloaded by too many pixels (as is the case with some higher MP small cameras).
It is extremely compact and easy to carry around. The quality of the images is oustanding.
Shoots great in most conditions although can be a little tricky to use in low light as you have to use very slow shutter speeds which can lead to blurred/noisy images.
The image stabiliser is excellent on the macro but trying to track anything in flight results in a blur regardless of the settings.

What customers say about "Display"

Canon EOS 200D

The 200D handles well and the touch screen makes up for the lack of familiar joystick and dedicated buttons.
Although the focus points within the viewfinder and limited and restricting the touch screen focussing is superb and flexible.
Great camera- takes sharp pictures and pretty well equipped in terms of features and operation, touch screen operation for settings playback and even shooting focal point.
The touch screen is such a great upgrade for me, especially with the flexibility to move it & flip it right round for “selfie” mode.
Love this camera for getting back into photography, it's manly touch screen controlled.

Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II Compact System Camera in Black + 14-42 EZ Lens

Touch screen which can be used to auto focus at desired point, straight to device wifi, and adjustable screen make this an awesome future proof camera.
The metal and plastic casing isn’t weatherproof, but amongst other things it contains a very good 5 axis image stabilisation system, built in WiFi, a 3" moveable touch screen, an electronic viewfinder.
In terms of practicality, the tilting LCD screen is a particularly useful feature for shooting tricky angles.
It is touchscreen, which I find convenient for changing the focus of the picture without fiddling with buttons.
Good looking and compact. Sometimes the screen turns off when taking a picture. I am still looking into it, maybe it is a bug or maybe it is normal...

What customers say about "Features"

Canon EOS 200D

Nice direct wireless interface to ipad and smart phone for viewing or download or even to take pictures remotely.
The on screen guide is great for beginners to get your head around all the different modes/options, very easy to use for anyone with a basic understanding.
I absolutely love this camera. It's perfect for a beginner like me- The menus are easy to use and very intuitive.
Each function has a brief description of what it's for or does and I found this very useful.
An excellent camera which is packed with easy to operate features.

Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II Compact System Camera in Black + 14-42 EZ Lens

Nice feature I find really useful on this camera is the built in WiFi - not only is it so easy to transfer pictures straight across to your mobile, it also gives you full remote control of your camera, including live preview.
Anti shake technology is good to make handheld photography a pleasure. It's very effective and also highly configurable, depending on your situation and what you are trying to do.
Not the best camera in low light features arent defined very well.
Art modes are fun, and the scene modes can be quite useful and very easy to use. Of course all the settings are there if you want to do anything manually.
I am staggered by how many features and modes this camera has (as well as interaction with my mobile phone that can be used a remote trigger and view-finder) and after 4 months still have much to learn.

What customers say about "Connectivity"

Canon EOS 200D

The camera is well equipped with various functions and remote work methods.
Excellent usb port speed, which allows me to quickly upload photos to a laptop.
Usb cable speed is just great, I don’t have to bother downloading photos for a long time.
I'm glad that I have such a camera, it has a bunch of functionality in it, oh my god, there is even an NFC.
Сonnecting to the camera via wifi or usb works well, the memory card works stably well.

USB port is really fast, you can quickly interact with pc via USB.
The gorgeous quality of all the details of the camera, the ports are made so that I have no fear that they will be broken.
Half a year has passed since the moment of purchase. The camera works perfectly, screen photo quality, lens, ports, everything is great.
After three months of working with the camera, the usb port stopped working.
Connecting via USB to a laptop can take a couple of minutes while the laptop tries to recognize this camera (laptop recognizes the rest of the devices immediately).
