Is the new EOS-250 not just an M50 with a mirror ?

I understand that some people prefer mirrorless and don't need/want an optical viewfinder.  There are other folks that don't mind the mirror, and want an OVF.

So if the SL3/250D is obsolete, then the M50 is also obsolete.

Personally, I really don't understand why mirrorless fans seem to think that the "standard" DSLR is obsolete.   Two separate product lines, for two separate (usually) segments of the market place.

Personally, I own DSLRs and point-and-shoots.  Take pictures with a phone sometimes. No plans to expand to mirrorless.  And i'm happy with what I have.

I'm surprised that the smartphone attachable cameras (eg Sony QX10) aren't being improved and marketed aggressively.
