While I agree high megapickle sensors aren't needed, it's nice to have more. The main gain with a more modern sensor is iso performance. Having decent quality at iso 3200 vs being stuck at iso800 is a HUGE difference

As Spod said. Get a Intervalometer.
Amen ......
I use the 600D also with the 24mm pancake lens plus a Speedlite 220EX. Excellent quality and so easy to use.

Have you considered a Lumix G5? Compact body / massive flip screen / built in intervalometer . . .

600D handles high ISO perfectly fine with the right other settings to accompany that higher rate.

My lumix g5 didn't have an internal intervalometer? The g6 does, and also has a better sensor and would cost just a few quid more
@dieselvan, it would be fine if you have one and are happy with it, in the same way an HD TV is fine, but would you buy one now?

Just out of interest which intervalometer did you get to use with your 200d? I have a remote currently which is always a bit fiddly, or as you say the Canon app is great.

I've done that a couple of time with the remote for it, it said they were compatible and they were not once they arrived and is just a faff sending back. There was a lot of swearing trying to get it to connect!

Canon have two types of connector, one is a jack plug with three insulators, not sure on the other type
Do you know which type it takes?
(edit, two insulators, not three)

No I don't unfortunately, I'll have a look later when I am fishing, although I still wouldn't be confident in my decision. That's why I asked the chap who has the 200d what he uses to be sure

I have a remote for a 250D and it has a jack plug with 2 insulators. This is a wired remote trigger, not a intervalometer.
When i first looked for a intervalometer, my model of camera wasn't listed - haven't looked since.

I have a remote for mine that works, also the Canon app, but would be much easier with the intervalometer just to let it shoot away. I've looked through way too many options on Amazon and forums and cant find a definitive answer.

Way too many options on Amazon - couldn't agree more.
I also looked and couldn't find an answer. For self takes during the day i use 4k video mode and snip out the best shot. The quality of me holding an imaginary fish are really good. Haven't had to do that yet in a real-life situation.
I haven't worked out what to do at night yet. May try the same but using my Rhino lamp.

this will work for both of you
There's another one at double the price that lists both your cameras, but any with the right connection will work
