Hi guys,

Camera noob here. I've recently bought the Canon EOS M10 and pretty new to camera photography (been shooting on iPhone for the longest time). I haven't had the time to really play with the new toy yet but recently I've taken some test shots and transferred it over to my phone via WIFI. Something weirded me out - the file size of the image captured with the EOS M10 is relatively smaller than the ones captured by the iPhone (like 900KB on the M10 vs. 1.5MB on the iPhone). Is there a setting in the camera that I need to look into to ensure I'm shooting with the best image quality? I understand that there could be many variables that could cause this, i.e. ISO settings, lighting of the environment, etc. but just want to ensure it's not caused by a camera setting that I may have missed. Could it also be the file is decompressed as I transfer it wirelessly? Would it matter if I transfer the photos over by connecting the camera to my computer?

Appreciate some feedback. Thanks guys!

Recently got the EOS M10 and tried it at low light setting. Pretty good if you're just starting out. Nothing too fancy and it's easy to use. In-built flash is also pretty good. Interchangeable lens and no hotshoe, but for the price I think it's pretty worth it. I got mine recently from MV. Canon had some 10 years anni promo and got mine at about 1599 with lotsa free stuff and extended warranty.
