EOS M200

a mirrorless camera... along with your old EF-S lens.... and an EF to M adapter will not be compact! i don't think you have enough of a budget for an m50 and a decent ef-m lens if u invest in an M camera get one of the later ones: M50, M50 mk II, M200 or M6 Mk II if u really want to go with the M50

If you don't have a set budget, you should look at one of the Rich GR series cameras. They have an APS-C sensor, are small and pocketable with a fixed, either 28mm or 40 mm equivalent lens. They are not cheap, the GR IV is about 1600, while the III and IIIx are about 1200 new. Buying used can save y

did u make a bad decision buying this camera in 2025.... well, as much as I love my little M camera and tiny EF-M lenses... Canon stopped making cameras in that ecosystem nothing else they make will be as small as an m series camera. the M200 is about the same size as the M3 and its a bit newer....
