In summary
Although not quite as small and light as the EOS 100D, the EOS 200D is significantly more compact than Canon’s other entry-level DSLRs. It has the same attractive handling characteristics as its predecessor and the Guided UI menu will be easier for novice photographers to understand than Canon’s regular menus (which are among the easiest to use in the current DSLR market).
The sensor and DIGIC 7 processor in the EOS 200D are the same as in the EOS 77D but they’re packed into a more compact and lighter body that is a better option for smart phone photographers looking to step up to a more capable camera.

The first EOS to be released with a selfie mode, Canon’s new EOS 200D includes automated functions like skin smoothing and background blurring plus an always-on connection with a smart device to please social media users. The sensor and DIGIC 7 processor in the EOS 200D are the same as in the EOS 77D but they’re packed into a more compact and lighter body that is a better option for smart phone photographers looking to step up to a more capable camera.

Like its predecessor, the EOS 200D is being sold in kit format, bundled with the EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens, which we reviewed in May 2017. A few things have changed since we reviewed the original EOS 100D back in 2013, among them the redesign of the menu system to make it easier for novice users.
Features that are identical in both cameras include the pentamirror viewfinder, single card slot and basic control layout. And even some of the features that have changed haven’t changed very much.

The sensor and DIGIC 7 processor in the EOS 200D are the same as in the EOS 77D but they’re packed into a more compact and lighter body that is a better option for smart phone photographers looking to step up to a more capable camera.
But, like all DSLRs, it’s not ideal for shooting movies, particularly in bright conditions, when the monitor screen becomes difficult to ‘read’.
Build and Ergonomics
Despite being a little larger and heavier than its predecessor, the EOS 200D is still a relatively compact DSLR. Interestingly, it pares between seven and 8.5 mm off the physical dimensions of the entry-level EOS 1300D but only 32 grams off its weight. (You pay a price for this down-sizing; the EOS 200D lists at AU$350 higher than the 1300D.)
Physically, the 200D’s body is similar to Canon’s other entry-level DSLRs, with a chassis made from aluminium alloy and black glass-fibre reinforced polycarbonate and cladding made from polycarbonate with glass-fibre plus special conductive fibre. The lens mounting plate is metal. The grip is as generous as the one on the EOS 100D and will suit users with average-sized hands. Its textured surface ensures secure and comfortable handling.

The front panel of the 200D is similar to Canon’s other entry-level DSLRs, with a large lens release button prominent on the left side of the lens mount. Above it sits an LED, which does double duty as a red-eye reduction and self-timer lamp, with the flash release button to its left on the edge of the viewfinder housing. Below the lens release button lies a small depth-of-field preview button.

The control layout on the top panel has a few minor changes, among them a Wi-Fi button and embedded LED, which sit to the left of the viewfinder housing. Behind it is a six-hole speaker grille for audio playback.
The mode dial, which rotates through 360 degrees, carries the usual array of settings. Between it and the shutter button lie a dial wheel plus buttons for accessing the ISO and Display settings. The power switch is now a rotating lever with settings for on, off and movie modes.

The main change on the rear panel is the replacement of the fixed monitor with a fully articulating panel. Aside from that, the size of the screen and its resolution and touch controls are unchanged since the 100D.
The viewfinder above it is the same as the 100D’s and although small, is reasonably bright for an entry-level camera. Its magnification of 0.87x and field-of-view coverage of 95% are similar to other entry-level finders. Dioptric adjustment of -3 to +1 dpt is available.
As is normal for entry-level cameras, the battery and memory card share a compartment, which is accessed via a lift-up panel in the base plate. A metal-lined tripod socket is located nearby in line with the axis of the lens.
Menu
The EOS 200D’s menu features Guided UI menu design that was introduced on the EOS 800D (which we haven’t reviewed). It’s been simplified in the 200D to make it even easier for novice users to configure the camera.
There are four sections in the menu, covering shooting settings, playback, function settings and display level settings. All controls can be accessed by touching the screen.
The opening page of the EOS 200D’s menu.
The shooting settings sub-menu contains four pages covering functions associated with shooting, such as image size and quality settings, focusing and metering modes, white balance and drive modes, exposure compensation, ISO settings, Picture Style modes and noise reduction.
Two pages from the shooting settings sub-menu.
The playback sub-menu has three pages covering the various playback and in-camera editing modes as well as Creative Filter adjustments, Photobook Set-up and enabling histogram and AF point displays.
The front page of the playback sub-menu.
There are four pages in the function settings sub-menu, covering card formatting, file numbering and folder selection, Wi-Fi settings, LCD brightness, date/time settings, language, video format, touch controls, battery info, custom functions, copyright information and firmware details. Eleven custom functions can be accessed via page 4 in this sub-menu.
The front page of the function settings sub-menu.
Only one page of display level settings is provided, covering the shooting screen, menu display, mode guide and feature guide. Users can choose between Guided and Standard for the first two and enable or disable each of the latter pair.
The front page of the display level settings sub-menu.
When the Guided mode is enabled, the mode displays easy-to-understand descriptions for parameters in functions such as exposure compensation (brighter/darker), AF area selection and aperture setting (blurred/sharp). Options vary, depending on which shooting mode has been set. In the Scene Intelligent Auto mode, choices are reduced to two sub-menus that cover drive modes and flash settings.
Sensor and Image Processor
The sensor in the EOS 200D is the same 24.2-megapixel CMOS chip as the sensor in the EOS 77D and EOS M5 cameras and covered in our review of the EOS 77D (INSERT LINK). The DIGIC 7 processor is also the same in all three cameras, enabling the 200D to support sensitivities up to ISO 51200 (although only for stills).
Four JPEG sizes are provided, three with two compression levels plus one lower resolution option. Only one raw file option (recording at 6000 x 4000 pixels) is available and Large/Fine is the only JPEG option for RAW+JPEG capture.
Movies are recorded in MP4 format, using AVC.H.264 compression and a variable bit rate. The Basic Zone, Creative Zone and manual exposure modes are supported in movie mode. The table below shows the resolutions available, along with typical recording times and file sizes.

By default, Movie Servo AF is set as the focusing mode for shooting movies but photographers can also select the FlexiZone-Multi, FlexiZone-Single and Face+Tracking AF modes. ISO sensitivity is set automatically within a range of 100-12800, although it can be expanded to ISO25600, if required. The 200D supports the same time-lapse movie and Video Snapshots options as previous EOS cameras.
Playback and Software
Playback options are similar to the previous models and provide the option of using the touch screen as well as the button controls. The software bundle has to be downloaded from the Canon website at http://www.canon.com/icpd.
It contains the latest versions of the standard ‘Utilities’: Digital Photo Professional 4, EOS Utility (uploader), EOS Lens Registration Tool, EOS Web Service Registration Tool, EOS Sample Music and Picture Style Editor for Windows and Macintosh PCs. The Camera Connect app for iOS and Android devices can also be downloaded.
Instruction manuals for using the software can be downloaded from the same site. A printed user manual was supplied with the camera, along with a leaflet extolling the virtues of Canon’s irista image sharing service.
Performance
Not surprisingly, the results of our Imatest tests were similar to those we obtained from the EOS 77D, EOS M5 and EOS M6, which have the same sensor and DIGIC 7 processor. We found colour reproduction to be similar to those cameras, although a few hues deviated slightly from the ideal values. Saturation with the Standard Picture Style was slightly lower in the review camera.
Imatest showed the review camera to be capable of meeting expectations for a 24-megapixel APS-C sensor with JPEG files and comfortably expectations with CR2.RAW files with the optimal lens settings. The kit lens used for testing suffered from edge and corner softness, a common feature of kit lenses.
Resolution remained relatively high for JPEGs at ISO 100 and ISO 200, after which it slowly declined. Raw files maintained a significantly higher resolution throughout the review camera’s sensitivity range with a gradual decline as sensitivity was increased. The graph below shows the results of our Imatest tests with both JPEG and CR2.RAW files.
Subjective assessments of image noise at high ISO settings in both long exposures and with flash shots showed them to be similar to equivalent shots taken with the EOS 80D, which we reviewed in April 2016, although exposures weren’t quite as accurate. We found little apparent noise in long exposures taken at up to ISO 3200, with noise and softening beginning to be visible at ISO 6400.
Both noise and softening could be seen at ISO 12800 and ISO 25600 and by ISO 51200 the image had become granular-looking and riddled with artefacts. Colour saturation remained relatively high up to ISO 25600 but deteriorated sharply thereafter. We wouldn’t recommend using the ISO 51200 extension.
Flash exposures were correctly exposed between ISO 100 and ISO 6400, after which both contrast and sharpness deteriorated. Noise was obvious at the two highest ISO settings, which also showed the influence of ambient lighting. The review camera was able to provide nicely balanced fill-in flash for outdoor portraits.
Auto white balance performance was similar to other Canon DSLRs we’ve reviewed with shots taken under incandescent and LED lighting remaining partly corrected, while shots taken with fluorescent lighting and with the camera’s built-in flash being almost cast-free. The pre-sets for incandescent and fluorescent lighting types slightly over-corrected but manual measurement delivered a neutral colour balance. Plenty of in-camera adjustments are provided for tweaking images as you shoot and white balance bracketing of +/- three levels in one-step increments across the blue/amber and magenta/green axes is available.
Autofocusing speeds were similar to those of the EOS 77D, with minimal delay in locking onto subjects in normal light levels when the viewfinder was used to compose shots. The review camera was faster to find focus in low light levels than the EOS M6, although lock-on speeds didn’t match those we found with the viewfinder in similar light levels.
The automatic AF area selection mode required bright lighting to keep track of moving subjects, particularly when they were moving across the frame faster than a standard walking pace.
When shooting movies, the Dual Pixel AF system was quick enough to lock onto most subjects when panning and zooming. Low-contrast lighting reduced focusing speeds, especially with fast moving subjects.
Video quality was similar to the clips we obtained from the EOS 77D, which isn’t surprising as this feature has barely changed. The slight differences between Standard and Light (IPB) settings were largely related to their different bit rates and barely perceptible. Movies shot with the Light setting were slightly slower to re-focus when panning and zooming than those recorded with the Standard setting.
Aside from that, any differences between the HD 1080p and 720p video clips were largely related to the frame resolution and negligible when clips were viewed on a normal HD TV set. Audio quality was similar to that of the EOS 77D we tested. We didn’t detect any pick-up of operational noises when zooming and re-focusing while shooting movie clips.
For our timing tests, we used the same 16GB Panasonic SDHC Class 10 UHS-1 memory card as we used when testing the EOS 77D, to provide a speed comparison. The review camera took roughly one second to power up ready for shooting.
When the viewfinder was used for framing, we measured an average capture lag of 0.1 seconds, which was eliminated by with pre-focusing. In Live View mode, the capture lag averaged 0.2 seconds, reducing to a consistent 0.1 seconds with pre-focusing.
Shot-to-shot times averaged 0.5 seconds without flash and 1.8 seconds with, regardless of file format. Processing times were slower than we found with the EOS 77D. On average, it took 1.8 seconds to process each JPEG image, 3.2 seconds for a raw file and 3.7 seconds for each RAW+JPEG pair.
In the normal continuous shooting mode, the camera recorded 17 Large/fine JPEG frames in 3.6 seconds before pausing. This equates to just under five frames/second. Processing of this burst was completed within 10.2 seconds of the last frame recorded.
On swapping to shooting raw files, the camera slowed down after recording six frames in 1.1 seconds, which equates to just under five frames/second. It took 12.3 seconds to complete the processing of this burst. Roughly the same frame rate and buffer capacity applied in RAW+JPEG format but processing of the burst took roughly 15.8 seconds.
Conclusion
It’s not quite as small and light as the EOS 100D, but the EOS 200D is significantly more compact than Canon’s other entry-level DSLRs (although it’s only 32 grams lighter than the EOS 1300D which has now been on sale for more than a year). It’s also larger and heavier than Canon’s EOS M5, which has similar specifications, although you’ll pay considerably more for the mirrorless camera.
The EOS 200D has the same attractive handling characteristics as its predecessor and the Guided UI menu will be easier for novice photographers to understand than Canon’s regular menus (which are among the easiest to use in the current DSLR market). But, like all DSLRs, it’s not ideal for shooting movies, particularly in bright conditions, when the monitor screen becomes difficult to ‘read’.
The electronic viewfinders in mirrorless cameras are far more convenient for shooting movies. The EOS 200D also has limited movie capabilities, with a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and a top frame rate of 50 fps.
The EOS 200D has been on sale for just under a month but already discounting has begun. If you shop around you can find the body plus EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens for less than $850 so it’s not worth shopping off-shore for the body+lens kit. A few re-sellers have the body alone listed at below AU$800.
B&H, which promotes aggressively into the Australian market had the body plus EF-S 18-55mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens at US$699 (AU$886.26), which is more than you’d pay locally. Add roughly AU$50 to cover shipping and the off-shore price becomes even less competitive. You’ll also miss out on local consumer protection and have to wait for the equipment, which may (or may not) be delivered on time.
