Canon EOS M50 and EOS100 Troubles

Illfixit

Hi I use the Canon EOS M50 as a tool paired with the Katapult data logging system for utility line surveying. My company has gone through hundreds of these cameras and I have gone through at least 6 if not more! Apparently they are trash after so many photos being taken and let's not bother getting into the picture quality!! Now that my latest M50 has failed and I've only had it a few months they gave me our new EOS 100 paired with the canon 24-105 lens which now makes my job impossible to perform!! I now have lost the ability to take photos at a reasonable distance to capture the complete subject!! I need to go back to the M50 but do not understand why they are more than 10-20 dollars for one because the quality is astonishingly horrible!! Is there a way to fix the M50 myself or is there a way to get the EOS100 to take a picture of a subject and still be in the same zip code??? I have a task I need to complete at work and would need to have this fixed or another M50 by this Monday!!

Do you mean EOS R100. The EOS M series has been discontinued by Canon. You can contact Canon to see if they still repair it. You can get another lens for the EOS R100.
