Canon's new EOS 200D II is positioned as a light and compact DSLR for beginners. In fact, it's supposed to be the company's lightest DSLR with a vari-angle touchscreen display, weighing just 449gm. It features a 24.1-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor with Canon's latest Digic 8 image processor. You get a total of nine autofocus points, just like the older model, along with Dual Pixel autofocus for quick focusing. The ISO range is 100-25,600 (expandable to 51,200), 5fps burst shooting with One-Shot AF or 3.5fps with Servo AF. The camera can also shoot full-HD video up to 60fps or 4K video at 25fps. You also get a 4K time-lapse function and there's stereo audio recording.

This is the successor to the EOS 200D and features improvements along the lines of the image processor, video recording, and advanced features such as the addition of Eye AF. There is also built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity for syncing with a smartphone,shooting selfies or vlogging.
