Whether you're after an everyday all-rounder or a future-proofed travel companion, the EOS M6 Mark II is one of our favorite mirrorless cameras, particularly at this price.

This is the lowest price ever for this EOS M6 Mark II bundle, which include an EF-M 15-45mm kit lens and electronic viewfinder. It's an excellent all-rounder for those who want a compact but powerful mirrorless camera, combining a 32.5MP APS-C sensor with Canon's class-leading Dual Pixel AF autofocus system.

When we reviewed the Canon EOS M6 Mark II one of our few criticisms is that it doesn't have a built-in viewfinder, but this discounted bundle solves that by including the electronic viewfinder (EVF) accessory. It's a very decent viewfinder too, with a 2.36-million dot resolution, and handily detaches if you want to travel light.

Otherwise, it's hard to fault the EOS M6 Mark II's range of skills, which include excellent image quality, a rapid burst shooting mode and the ability to shoot 4K/30p video. It's an ideal choice for beginners or street photographers, and also now handily doubles as high-quality webcam, thanks to Canon's new EOS webcam software.
