The M100 with a kit lens seems like such a bargain at $350 from most vendors. My worry is using a camera with no EVF. Of course I use my iPhone as a camera all the time and don't really think about the lack of a viewfinder. But my more "serious " camera, a Nikon DSLR has an optical viewfinder, and I just think of cameras as having viewfinders.

I just am looking for a portable camera with better IQ and more control than my phone. And one that I can carry with me most of the time. Are M100 owners happy even without an EVF?

TIA,
Bob

Hi!

I'm not a m100 owner. Of M cameras I have M and M6. I do have other cameras, too. With OVF, some with EVF and some with only LCD. I don't miss EVF or OVF, when shooting with LCD-only camera. It is just nature of thise cameras. I must add having some difficulties with very near objects due age sight (even being very young person!)  I don't use LCD- only cameras "arms lenght. If/when that time should come, I would need glasses far earlier... You can have sturdy shooting position with LCD- only cameras, too, you just have to try, how to achieve that.
