I Rank 10 Of The World's SMALLEST Mirrorless Cameras!

I have reviewed a lot of very small mirrorless cameras - some of them good, some of them not so good. So today, I’m going to create a tier list featuring 10 of the smallest mirrorless cameras I’ve ever tested to find out which ones I think are the best.

Eyyyy! Loved this! The Sigma bit killed me off 😂 ill have to send you my GM5 so you can give it a test drive and get it into that S tier 👀 👀

[wilkbor]

I love your sense of humor. Well done.

EVF, exactly the reason I sold my first MFT camera, GM1, and bought the GM5. And two years later my second GM5 for 100e. Bought it with with two lenses and after selling them it was very affordable! Very light combo for travelling as I can have e.g. a wide prime on one and a longer small zoom on the other. And you can fit them both in your pockets (a jacket at least)

You started me down this rabbit hole of small sensor cameras. I ended up with an em1 m2, then micro4nerds brought me further down the hole. Today, I own most of the m43 cameras, pentax Q and Nikon 1 cameras and lenses. Only the Pentax 110 lenses weren't attributed to you 2. Lol. I'm definitely trying to resist getting the Samsung cameras.

trying to find a m4/3 camera for a friend whos birthday is coming up (trying to add to their current collection that consists of a single sony handycam from 2009) and these videos on cheaper cameras in that range have been SO useful. keep it up man.

[HAZPAza]

I always enjoy watching your videos! You helped me get into photography and I will always really appriciate that!

Keep being you :)

[DeSireeAlicea]

No one else has answered you but I believe you are correct that the EOS M/ M2 is the smallest mirrorless camera canon ever made. I would recommend you trying it out. Most videos on that camera are of people interested in magic lantern modifications not the original camera. It’s not perfect but something about that camera makes me want to shoot more photos and low grade video! (Without magic lantern)

[JoshCameron]

This has made me want a GM5 so bad ! So much value to be had in these older cameras!

[kushing]

As an owner of the GM1, GM5 and EPM1, I appreciate this video very much. Great content...

...and welcome to Canada. Wonderful to have you here 😊.

[alfredbarten]

Great video. I have a bunch of M4/3 cameras, but I found the fixed lens Lumix LX10 and LX100 do all I need. The zoom lenses are essentially the same range and quality as the Lumix 12-32 I use with my M4/3 cameras. The LX100 is a bit better than the LX10, but also bigger. The LX10 is very pocketable.

It was really cool to watch Emily! She’s truly the queen and for her videos and yours now I’m in the hunting for a new mini camera

[ezradja]

Pentax Q is arguably the best fun mirrorless camera. I put many type of manual focused lenses including some oldies and get some fun with it.

[gohkairen]

what about sony a5100 or even a6000? i wonder which category will they fall into as they’re pretty compact too

[artur.charaev]

I think the reason why all this lines are dead: rationality. No matter how small the body is it hard to put it into pocket due to lens thickness even though it pancake. And even if you fit it you can't really walk with it until it the large pocket of a coat. Another problem is due to body size it's hard to operate. And finally there is so many construction compromises: less features, less battery and etc. So after all the main advantage of a size doesn't really works where so many tradeoffs. Something like fuji XE, pany GX, sony a7c looks much more reasonable while stays very compact.

[burnki]

LOVE this review - your videos reignited my interest in learning photography and Emily finished with a Spartan kick down the tiny camera well. Brilliant job.

[jbtubman]

That was a really interesting set of comparisons. Done fairly, and with good humour. I'm happy to hear that you are now a fellow Calgarian!

[dumspyrospero]

I would add the Canon M100 (or M200) to the list (in the A category), this camera is a small beast and much smaller and newer than the M3. I still use an M100 to this day, its size makes it a great option for street photography. Great video btw!

[kicyiu]

I would add Sony Nex 5R/T and A5100 on that list, they are APSC almost same size as GM5

[RobRussellCM]

I absolutely adore your guest! She's such a delight! And she has another follower now - you two are awesome! 🥂🌻

Canon M series fan here. Just happy to be included 😂.
