Canon’s camera graveyard is about to add a few new members, including two compact cameras, well-loved DSLRs, and a tiny 302g mirrorless

Canon’s camera graveyard is about to add a few new members, including two compact cameras, well-loved DSLRs, and a tiny 302g mirrorless

By the end of 2027, Canon will retire repair services for four cameras, with two more following in December. The Canon EOS Rebel T7i and EOS 77D, both DSLRs, will no longer be eligible for official repairs at the end of November, as these models have been discontinued since 2017. The Canon EOS M100, a mirrorless camera released in the same year, will also see its repair services end at the same time.

This compact camera, weighing just 302g, featured a thin 35.1mm x 1.3-inch design and was discontinued in 2023. Three compact cameras - the Canon PowerShot ELPH 180 (IXUS 175), ELPH 185, and SX620 HS - will also reach the end of their support lifespan before the year's end. These point-and-shoot models, ranging from 2016 to 2017, shared a similar 20MP sensor and 8x optical zoom, although one model included an additional date button and "easy auto" mode in Japan.

Two bridge cameras, the PowerShot SX420 IS and SX430 IS, will also lose support by the end of 2026. Both cameras maintained a compact design, with the SX420 IS sporting a 42x optical zoom and the SX430 IS offering a 45x lens. While these older cameras are no longer sold new, their repair services ending may affect current owners and those looking to purchase used models.
