Canon M10: A New Entry-Level Mirrorless Camera

canonm10

Canon today announced the new Canon EOS M10, a new entry-level mirrorless camera that will be sold alongside the more advanced M3, which made its US debut this month.The M10 is designed for the social media generation, Canon says, as it shoots "sharp images that are sure to draw 'Likes'."

It has a compact design and a new retractable EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM kit lens that helps its portability. The lens is able to shorten and lock into a compact size when it's not being used.

Canon notes that the camera is perfect for shooting "selfie moments." The 3-inch, 1.04M-dot touchscreen LCD on the back of the camera tilts up 180-degrees, facing forward so that you can frame yourself in shots.

Inside the camera is an 18-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor that has an ISO range of 100-12800 (expandable to 25600). The sensor is accompanied by a DIGIC 6 image processor and a Hybrid CMOS AF II that provides rapid autofocus and continuous shooting of up to 4.6 shots per second.
