CanonEOS R50 V + RF-S 14-30mm F4-6.3 IS STM PZ - Vlogging Camera Compatible with Canon RF Lens | Content Creator Equipment for Vlogging & Travel | Bluetooth Enabled

I wanted something smaller and lighter than my old canon SLR, but with equal or better image quality. After unboxing the R50 I was surprised just how much smaller and lighter it was than my old SLR. But everything still fits my average size hands, and the control layout is logical and simple to use. The 18-45mm lens is fine for general photos such as scenery and close up shots of plants or pets, with smooth and fast autofocus and great image quality. But for wildlife and sports I plan on buying the RFS 55-210mm lens. This whole set up will fit in a large jacket pocket or small holdall and is perfect for travel, walks, days out, etc.

My daughter is getting into photography and this is a perfect camera to help her start. Its very compact and reasonably light making it easy for her to hold. It has a ton of features. The battery seems to last a long time given some of the reviews I read said it didn't. Had it weeks and not had to charge it yet.

Brilliant APS camera. Perfect for beginners and hobbyists. Price was excellent for a UK model. Couldn’t even find a grey import cheaper than the Amazon sale price.

So light to handle - much better for an overseas carry on - half the weight of older mirror CANON cameras.Probably more in viewfinder info visuals than needed. This can be simplified after reading the manual :-)Only complaint was the menu button gets activated by simply holding the camera - VERY annoying.Would recommend it as a great full frame camera - remember you need the appropriate RF-S lenses unless you get a EPS convertor!

I’ll be honest: the Canon R50 does tick all the basic boxes – snappy autofocus, lightweight design and crisp shots straight out of camera. It’s perfect for holiday snaps or YouTube vlogs. However, when I pushed it in dim light and tried burst mode, the buffer choked and the image quality felt a touch flat. It did exactly what it said on the tin—and stopped there. In the end I returned it and splurged on the Sony A7 IV for the extra dynamic range and battery life. If you’re after a no-frills starter, the R50 will do the job, but pro-level features? You’ll need to look a bit higher up the ladder.

A fantastic little camera. I've just swapped from a DSLR and am blown away by the small form factor and how light the camera is. The picture quality is excellent.

Takes excellent pictures and video.

I bought this on prime day. After using omd system, Nikon and older canon kit. This is a super star.It does feel plasticy, including the lenses. However the performance is by far the best in this price range. Rf mount lenses are very expensive, but you can buy an adapter to use ef mount if like me, you had done lying around.
