Canon EOS R100 review: Rebel-like mirrorless camera, cheap but cuts corners | DPReview
The camera performs well at basic tasks like photography and battery life, but suffers from significant feature cuts, such as the lack of a touchscreen, making it a difficult recommendation unless the budget is very limited.
