Canon R50 Beginners Guide - How-To Use Camera Step By Step

[@tmk1991]

Thank you Jason! Super helpful. I got the R50 and I only have the kit lens, which other lens would you recommend? Mostly for traveling (landscape, portraits, animals), 50mm?

[@Jason_Hermann]

I would grab the RF-S 55-210mm geni.us/PbfjL0S to compliment your RF-S 18-55mm lens for the most range and most affordable option. The 55-210mm appears to only be available as a kit lens option though at the time of writing this unfortunately... For the best all-in-one lens option you can get the RF-S 18-150mm lens: geni.us/5pxFjX and then you won't really need the 18-45mm lens anymore... 150mm is a lot of reach... I compared the 18-45mm vs the 18-150mm lens here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIeZiZmVert1iZY You could also consider some full frame RF lenses, but they are larger and more expensive for the most part... The RF 24-240mm geni.us/QqwaXAB in particular looks to be a great all-in-one lens option for the money, but it's $899 US... For portraits in particular, the RF 50mm f/1.8 lens: geni.us/U8903L would be an excellent option and it's very affordable... I hope that helps and thank you for the kind words about the video :) Jay

Hi Jason! Thanks for all the great info. I like the way you explain everything ! You make it very easy to understand Keep the great videos coming !

[@ESLTeacherMr.Sahyogee]

I just bought

[@TheIslandExpat]

The nifty fifty is a great all around lens that's about $150-$160.

[@6581punk]

24-240mm will do pretty much everything.

[@YouTub-sl1zx]

After 10 months of saving, I'm finally getting my first camera. This video is really helpful and gets me more excited! Thank you!

[@FullofCrapp]

i bought this as my first camera too! its a great camera so far

[@SaraouniaSalima]

congratulations!!!

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

mine's coming tomorrow. So I'm going to watch this a few times.

[@Jason_Hermann]

It's a great little camera Mark, your going to love it!

[@matthewdrexler188]

Lol dito xD

[@ApexOfExistence]

Watched twice already! Mines coming today I'm super stoked!

[@Realwildshots]

Mine’s coming next week so already watching it 😂

[@datguybrandon9683]

Mines coming in two days? 😂

[@aliceemma135]

The BEST guide I've ever seen!! Really appreciate your efforts! My husband and I gained a lot camera knowledge from you.

[@adambernon6930]

I’ve been jumping from one video to another after buying the R50 as my first legitimate camera. A lot of the other videos assumed a base line understanding I didn’t have. This guide is great.

[@piahelens]

I absolutely love this in depth explanation. You explain every single detail and not just assume that everyone knows the basics right away and jump straight to the specs. THIS is a beginners guide👍

[@jarlo_marz8]

Wow 🤩 you are a blessing!!!! 😮 I am thinking of getting this to hopefully start my own business , thanx a million!!!!! You have no idea what this means to all of us beginners 😢

[@Jason_Hermann]

That’s awesome to hear, and you’re very welcome!

[@James47888]

Kia Ora Jason, just picked up an R50 and this guide is a winner. You've saved me (and everyone else here) a bunch of time. Cheers mate, appreciate your efforts!

[@gigim.7949]

LOVE THIS IN-DEPTH GUIDE!! I will be having my R50 as my first ever camera and this video will somehow help me how to navigate the controls without being overwhelmed. I hope there's a part 2 where all functions will be demonstrated via taking photos or videos outside.

[@MuscleFishingOfficial]

I have just purchased this camera for my fishing channel. This video is the best guide on KZbin by a million miles. Thanks for making it and going through it slowly and with detail. Just what was needed to further understand the camera world

[@skinbybruna]

As someone who films long videos for KZbin, I appreciate so much the amount of details and the pace you go about showing everything about this camera! I wish I had seen one of these for the first camera I’ve had, would’ve made the learning experience much easier! Thank you!!

[@gracediy2606]

I just got a new one yesterday and can’t wait to have some amazing shots with your guidelines 😜😜

[@Jason_Hermann]

💪👊

[@mscheibl5230]

My camera arrived today and I'm so happy to find your video - thank you!

[@EXanthe22]

Just wanted to say THANK YOU!!!! I just brought this camera, and have looked at a bunch of different tutorials, but yours is the one I actually watched. I found it engaging, comprehensive, and very informative. I’m now able to enjoy my camera. Thanks!!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Awesome!

[@Prez54]

[@davezamora3626]

My wife got me this camera for my birthday and your video was totally a game changer for me. It allowed me to fully enjoy it, amazing video super extensive. Thank you for sharing this out with the world!

[@erniemorgan471]

What an awesome tutorial! It’s really helping this old man understand the camera much better. Thanks!

[@woahthatsrough]

I’ve owned a polaroid camera since I was 10. I’m 18 and just got a real camera!! I have NO idea what i’m doing or what anything means. This video is understandable, simple, and the exact video most of us needed. Thank you sir!!

[@Jason_Hermann]

That is awesome to hear and you are very welcome 👊

[@kgalaxm22]

I just purchased it last night! I'm very excited to get it and start taking pictures

[@Jason_Hermann]

[@robrocks34]

[@the_reads]

You're a legend, sir! I've just received the exact package of your content. You've made me love my new camera! It's my very first camera in life, and I know nothing about filming or photography - you've inspired me. Keep it up, man!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Great to hear and thanks for sharing :)

[@anuiris]

The Best video on Photography basics I've ever seen. Its like a crash course for a beginner. Thank you very much!

[@Jason_Hermann]

This is so informative and invaluable. Thank you so much for explaining so eloquently. Amazing content. Extremely helpful!!!

[@marbelhaj1234]

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH, Couldnt figure it out without you really, all those little things are very important to know and I was quite lost before I saw your tutorial. I got annoyed that every time i clicked on the screen it was taking a picture and you showed how to turn that on and off. I'm only at 20 minutes and have gotten so much information out of this. You are the absolute best. Thank you!

[@Jason_Hermann]

You're very welcome!

[@walterwadlow9438]

Thanks!

[@Jason_Hermann]

[@warxmusic9211]

Amazing video! Thank you for taking such time explaining everything, very very useful for a beginner!!!

[@Jason_Hermann]

You're very welcome!

[@robinbregman7540]

Thank you for this well done tutorial. I’m a Nikon fan but my son just bought a Cannon R50 and I wanted to learn about this camera so I can help him set up and learn about his camera. This camera has some really nice features! Seems like a terrific starter camera.

[@fatihkoklu]

I bought R50 today, learning from this video 👍

[@BlindRobot831]

Hey, dude! I just got mine today and I’m mega thankful for your instructional video. It’s my very 1st camera ever so the whole process of choosing one was daunting for me to say the least and this guide takes so much weight off of my chest for the learning curve I’m about to undergo. Thank you so much for making this!!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Great to hear and enjoy!

[@danielvillanueva7925]

Thank you, i just got my R50, it is my first camera and this video helps me like you have no idea. Thanks Jason¡¡¡

[@Jason_Hermann]

Great to hear :)

[@luisreyna4581]

Man I haven’t even finish this video but have learned a lot!!! Cannon should pay you for this! This should be a video that comes with the camera lol

[@Dean4790]

One of the best videos of this camera, thank you so much!

[@chiarabenelli7431]

you don't know how much I appreciate this video and the simple way you're traching us! I'm getting mine in a few days and I literally don't know anything about cameras (this will be my first!). Thank you so much for being so clear and slow! Have a good one, sending love form Italy 🫶🏻

[@marciflores6687]

Thank you!! This video is incredible!!! Just like you said as a total newbie and beginner user I felt a little frustrated trying to figure it on my own, but after watching this very thorough and helpful video I can’t wait to get back out there. Looking forward to watching this again as well as your others! Thank you!!!

[@Jason_Hermann]

You're very welcome Marci :)

[@Josh_CT50]

very helpful video! i learned a lot of good things to do with my camera

[@artofjordanbray]

That was excellent! Ill just have to watch it 8 more times before I have it all down.

[@stephanied559]

I’m not a commenter but I just had to let you know this was an amazing video! Exactly what you want when you want to get to know your camera, especially as a beginner!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Thank you so much!!

[@ToastCrumbsUK]

Most useful beginner guide I’ve seen for the R50. Thanks so much!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@shanesmith2143]

Great video, thank you. I returned the r100 and upgraded to this camera (I love it so much more), and your instructional video was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you from a n00b. I appreciate your time putting this together and posting

[@cesarvieitez2981]

Thanks Jason for this tutorial on the R50, I got mine a day ago and I’ve learned quite a few things from watching your video very informative and straight forward, you take your time in explaining things.thank you again

[@silversight9661]

Whenever, I get a new camera, I can always count on you to teach me everything I need to know about how to use it. I just wanted to let you know that I am very grateful for all of those lessons. Thank you, Jason; and you're an excellent instructor.

[@fransteeno]

Great video. You covered a few things that others missed.

[@shrinathsudershan]

New to photography, absolutely phenomenal video. Thanks for taking the time to make something like this and moreover thinking from the POV of someone learning this for the firs time. Thank you Jason!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the kind words :)

[@662OutdoorAdventures]

Excellent informative video! the R50 is my first "serious" camera and I understand so much more now. Thanks!

[@rogermartinez9943]

I bought my camera during Black Friday. Specifically I chose the 2 lens kit. I haven’t went and experimented with the camera I’ve been putting that off for about month. I picked up the canon r50 because I watch great reviews on KZbin and before I stumbled onto the r50 I thought about buying the canon m50 mkii. Anywho I wanted to pick up another hobby and photography stood out to me, however I don’t know nothing about photography or these fancy words you guys are using. But my 2024 New Year’s resolution was to take great photos and videos and their was no better way to start but to start here with your excellent explanation on this powerful and incredibly compact camera. I’m taking notes , pausing and rewinding and taking it all in. Want to know all about there is about photography. Just wanted to say thank you , thanks for your explanation. Hope to see another in depth explanation on future canon cameras.

[@Jason_Hermann]

Thanks Roger for the very kind words and sharing your story :) I have another video tutorial using the R10, which is nearly identical to the R50, and that will teach you more in depth about camera modes and photography concepts in general: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGPEpaqujt-DeKM All the best, Jay

[@koffiefilter]

Thanks for the video guide, I got this camera some months ago and found it really helpful! 😊

[@beardcomingsoon2738]

Great video and in depth explanation of its different modes and features! I appreciate it and look forward to growing in this hobby and catching up with your other content! Thank you kindly!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@SPEARHEART]

Awesome! Thanks. This was certainly very helpful.

[@roselindthomas1]

Thank you for this video, just got mine and additionally bought the 50 mm you recommended for portraits. Now to watch the video as I set up the camera.

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad it was helpful and enjoy!

[@Allthatglittersaintgold]

Got my first camera a couple of days ago. This is awesome content, thank you. I will need to come back to it a couple of times I think! Going to get out in the next couple of days and play around with my new camera 😊

[@akshaysawant3591]

Great video to get started. Thank you heaps 😊

[@aldonis7515]

Decided to buy this with a variety of RF lens after 2 years with the Rebel T7. I was considering the R8, but the R50 met my needs & price point. My lil Rebel now goes to my niece since she’s getting into photography.

[@FindTheSeven]

How did you like the T7? I'm deciding between the R50 and the T7 but so far this excellent video guide is having me lean towards the R50.

[@namasteeats]

thank you, every second of this video was worth it!

[@Jason_Hermann]

Glad you liked it!

[@ladyleeshome]

Thank you so much! Very helpful. I have the 6D Mark ii but got this one mainly for video (and travel) since it’s so much smaller. Makes life much easier and still more options than I need. Already in love with it! Again, this was very helpful. Thanks!

[@Jason_Hermann]

You're very welcome!

[@wandak6448]

Hi! I have a t5i thats SD card slot just broke (spring?) so I was all ready to get a 6d mark ii since everything always said to buy full frame but now I’m considering this, what would you do? I do all kinds of photography including portrait. Thank you!

[@SogaGoat]

I had my R50 in my hand just going through it while watching the whole video. This video actually really is a true How-To.

[@pacs1life2]

Omg that was THE BEST tutorial ever!!!!!! Thankssssssss
