What is a mirrorless camera?
Unlike a DSLR, which uses a mirror to reflect light into a viewfinder, mirrorless cameras – sometimes known as compact system cameras – do not contain a mirror or an optical viewfinder, which makes them generally smaller than DSLRs.
Where space is at an absolute premium, the Canon EOS M mirrorless range offers flexibility and convenience with high image quality in both movies and stills. It uses an electronic viewfinder which saves size and weight but offer extra creative benefits.
Ranging from APS-C models with smaller lenses to full-frame powerhouses where creativity is at the core thanks to a short back focus from the full-frame sensor, the entire EOS mirrorless range is designed to bring out the best in your photography.
Stunning quality
Our mirrorless cameras distil the best of Canon compacts and DSLRs to deliver superb quality photos and movies that are packed with detail, colour and atmosphere - even in low-light conditions.
EF-M lenses
Portable, lightweight lenses designed exclusively for EOS M cameras. These lenses range from ultra-wide angle and telephoto zooms to tiny pancakes that will let you explore your creativity.
