Bryan Carnathan at The Digital Picture published the Canon EOS Rebel SL2 (EOS 200D) entry-level DSLR camera review saying “A small and light camera that is easy to take with you everywhere. You get a TTL optical viewfinder and fast phase-detection AF along with the excellent Dual Pixel AF system that performs extremely well including during video capture.”

From The-Digital-Picture:

The Canon EOS Rebel SL2 / 200D is a small and light camera that is easy to take with you everywhere. If you always have a camera available, you are going to get images that were not otherwise possible. And getting an image in the first place is always an advantage.

Still, this camera does not make you give up the features and image quality you love. You get a comfortable-to-use grip that is adequately-sized to provide solid control of the camera. You get a TTL optical viewfinder and fast phase-detection AF along with the excellent Dual Pixel AF system that performs extremely well including during video capture.

In addition, you get compatibility with the entire Canon EOS system of accessories. Highly attractive is the big APS-C sensor, shared with many other current EOS models, bringing the similarly-excellent image quality to the little SL2. Icing on the cake is the affordability of this model. Beginners looking for their first DSLR, parents wanting a camera that can go with them, any photographer on a tight budget, advanced photographers who need a small/light backup camera, professionals needing a camera that may be sacrificed during a shoot and a host of others will put an SL2 in their kits.
