I jut looked up the gx 5 mark 2, not in my price range today. Does the eos zoom by just turning the lens? Wondering if I could brace the camera against my body and zoom with my good hand???

I guess it will depend on you. You can try that with a friend's camera if available. Or check the G7X Mark II as it might suit your budget. As for the m100,  f you wouldn't mind using it with only a prime lens and thus getting rid of zooming, you'll have to see if you can find it body only and buy a separate prime lens. Or look on the used market. The m100 will give you even better results than any PowerShot camera.
