Globetrotting with the Canon M200 – Japan Edition

In my previous article, I used the Canon M200 on low light setting when I had the opportunity to go to the Alex Blake Charlie Sessions. This time round, I went globetrotting and brought the Canon M200 on my trip to Japan. Read on for comparisons with scenic shots taken with my iPhone XS Max.

I went to both Kyoto and Osaka in Japan with a short stop at Kinosaki. Needless to say, Japan was amazing! The weather was cool, transport was efficient and convenient, and best of all the food was top-notch. My family and I went to the usual scenic locations like Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, Inari Shrine, Nara Deer Park, and many more.

Canon M200 vs iPhone XS Max

On to the comparisons! Photos taken with the camera were crisper and clearer as compared to the phone. The Canon M200 lacks nothing when it comes to taking great scenic photos as demonstrated below. Additionally, the different settings on the Canon M200 were very intuitive and simple to navigate.
