Canon R50 - The New Entry Level King?

[@clarhettcoalfield3616]

Watching Hyun's Canon R50 video while I'm repairing a Minolta XE-7 film camera ... it just can't get any better.

[@babajaiy8246]

I liked the R-50 overall when I got it a few months ago - had to pass it on to a relative though and get another camera when I couldn't shoot night time landscape/stars (without moon or other artificial lighting around). The viewfinder/panel simply did not have the capacity to show the scene even with settings cranked to max. I would have to take several pre-shots - moving the camera on the tripod and guessing the correction for each shot until I got the composition I wanted. I then thought about getting the R-8 but the camera store basically said I couldn't make a return if it still ended up not being good enough. So because I saw a video on the 6400 of a guy shooting in the same lighting conditions and was showing the scene to be perceptable enough plus having a feature called brightness monitor to boost the display I decided to get the a6700 which since it's in the same series would have the same or better feature. It turns out I don't even need the brightness monitor on the a6700 as even at max settings I can still see the scene. Perhaps if I upgraded to the R-8 I would have similarly gotten a better lit viewfinder since both the R-8 and a 6700 are in higher category of camera compared to the R-50. Too bad, I generally like Canon cameras over Sony - though this new a6700 gives the impression of a quality built body and has been working out well so far with some good glass.

3:05 remember when everyone complained the flip up screens were blocked by shotgun mics? At least you can cold mount a mic anywhere else, use a lav, etc. You can't work around the port blocking the screen and not have to use external audio. 😂 Thank you for this clip. 🙏

[@dbuckfanplays7991]

Thermal pad mod. 2mm thick directly on the 2 chips, 1mm on the back of the metal plate. Made it the whole hour with only 3 bars on the over heat sensor display

[@mb-watches]

Liked the m50 and m6 but went for the r10 instead of the r50 as b-cam. A lil bit more money but far better specs for my needs. Using the rf24 f1.8 and rf 35mm on it which also would do a good job on the r50. As well enjoy the kit lens 18-150 quite a lot and it has actually pretty decent footage

[@nunonunes097]

What do you mean by far better specs? What are they? I'm undecided between both and I say many saying r10 is much better for photography. I just don't know in what, except for shutter speed I believe. I'm not sure. I'm a total beginner 😅

[@mb-watches]

@@nunonunes097 to me it’s better because I do more video related work and the video specs on the r10 are better. Shutter speed for foto ist as well better but depending on what you shoot not really relevant. If you just wanna do Street photography or family shots or take the camera with you for travelling than the R50 is a great and compact camera. At a 24mm and 35mm prime and maybe the 18-150 kit lens and you are good to go. That said, the price gap between the r50 and r10 isn’t that high, depending also which discount you could get, but often they are pretty close pricewise and than I would go for the r10 as it offers a bit more. Hope that helped a little bit

[@threadzz]

Agree with you about the 18-150mm. It's a really versatile lens. 👍

[@voicekrack]

Hey, good video, would it be possible to make a canon eos r10 video? Tips and tricks, r10 tutorials for beginners or something related to the r10?

[@wataworks6478]

I'd still choose the M6 II for the sigma lenses alone.

[@chance2pants]

I think anyone would “choose” the M6 ii but there’s an almost 2000 dollar difference in price that ends up making the decision for most people.

[@chance2pants]

Haha oops I read this as r6, and then was like wait that wouldn’t change the mounting system 😅

[@thegreatvanziniphotos5976]

The crippled hot shoe & the single wheel is a deal killer for me. Switching back & forth between shutter & FStop seem nuts.

[@wildechap]

It is clearly made for a certain type of user, but the hot shoe thing was unnecessary, but they have always done that for their cheaper bodies.

[@Henry_44]

Obviously you won't get more wheel on an entry level camera🤦🏻‍♂️

[@thegreatvanziniphotos5976]

@Henry yeah, I think I'll stick to my m6 mk2.

[@jockturner1547]

@@Henry_44 yeah that’s bs. The cost to add an additional wheel is surely very very little. You’d think that a tool designed to take images and video would at the very least provide simple controls to control the only thing that really matters, the exposure triangle. Canon continues to find ridiculous ways to cripple their cameras in a world where competitors are aiming to provide as much value as possible

[@jaydekaytv]

This is a new breed of camera. It's very centered around auto mode, which it does much better than anything else out there around this price point.

[@sudharsananthanikachalam800]

Amazing content. Thumbs up. Please make detailed video to use r50 features effectively

[@gainde1137]

So you need to buy a large and expensive RF full-frame lens from Canon? For example a 24mm F2.8 if you want a 35mm full-frame equivalent prime lense. Will be difficult to convince people to leave the M-line.

[@HyunRalphJeong]

Hopefully they'll release more lenses soon and would love to get some new bodies like the M200 or M6 equivalents for the RF mount.

[@gainde1137]

@@HyunRalphJeong Yes, hope too. Otherwise they ditch their APS-C line and just keep the cheap R50/R10/R7 bodies to lure beginners into full-frame as they already have to buy RF lenses. To buy old EF/EF-S lenses and use them with adapters can't be a longterm practice.

[@gainde1137]

@@HyunRalphJeong they really need to release some RF-S pancake lenses (24/35/50/85mm full-frame equivalent) otherwise they loose beginners and street photographers to Fuji and smartphone companies.

[@zegzbrutal]

Rf 24mm f1.8 IS is small enough for R50....

[@michaelbell75]

APS-C lenses are garbage and will be useless if you ever move up to a FF camera. Quality glass is much more important than the body. A FF RF lens is going to give you much better image quality than any APS-C lens.

[@ADDLOOPS1]

Man first of all, this was incredible! Second of all and something to think about is another reason to buy this camera. There is a USB-C port designed to have visibility on a computer (i.e. OBS) without the need for Canon webcam utility or a capture card. I would say that this put's it light years above other previous models since you remove a hardware failure point (capture card) as well as a software failure point (webcam utility). Otherwise this was so great man thanks again! ❤❤❤

[@zubamans]

I'm happy you have time to make content

[@Henry_44]

It is definitely entry level king,it offer a lot for beginners,ppl who keep complaining forgot that this is beginner camera🤦🏻‍♂️if you want more features and spec go buy a flagship camera

[@oamyway975]

I liked your photography 👍

[@gainde1137]

Where are the Canon EF-S prime lenses??

[@michaelbell75]

Canon had all the FF lenses out before the bodies. Now with the crop sensors, they have all the bodies out before the lenses.

[@djvidual8288]

There is lots clicks and pops in the audio. There seems to be a system latency issue with your PC, from where you recorded the voice over.

[@BleepingWorld]

If you use an EF-S to RF adapter does autofocus work?

[@kenduejones]

Yes works great

[@soulscience8969]

Hello! Can you transfer files from this camera to a phone via usb c connection? If you use a cable with two usb c ends, one connecting to the phone and one connecting to the camera. I do pictures in tourist areas and I print them on spot. I need to be really fast. My phone is conected through wifi to a printer. I need to transfer the photos to the phone via cable. Thank you!

[@kevinl1492]

There is an ISO button on the SL1, SL2 and SL3 and probably some other rebels.

[@manishmalli13]

I have a Canon 80D that I use for real estate photography. However, I want to get into real estate videography in the coming year. Planning to exchange my 80d to R50 along with getting a Zhiyun gimbal. Can anybody help in letting me know if I am doing the right thing?

[@neworleansportraitphotogra9015]

I'm an r5 and r6 shooter. I thought about picking this up for fun as a lighter body for gimbal use. But the different type of batteries makes me not want to grab it

[@chriskuroda5144]

Thanks! That was the best comparison yet, of the R50 vs the M50! Since I still have so many great EF-M lenses, I really wish Canon would have created the M50 Mark III with the R50's video specs and processor. Essentially, create the R50, the R10, and the R7, but offer them with the EF-M mount as well. The RF versions could be options for the full frame RF users; But, without alienating all of the EF-M camera owners. I don't think that would be too hard, or costly for them to do? Or, Canon could just allow third party autofocus lenses for the RF mount!

[@gainde1137]

It seems that Canon ditched the M-line and APS-C user have to use RF lenses now.

[@thegreatvanziniphotos5976]

Same here.

[@HyunRalphJeong]

They seemed a bit confused with their product lineup in the past few years. Hopefully at least the RF mount will have the same longevity as the EF mount.

[@Therealjayp_]

What about the 50mm 1.8 lens?? What do you think!

[@michaelbell75]

It's pretty good.

[@EnchantingEscapesCinema]

I'm hoping to buy a Canon R50 this year, and I plan to use it for video production - 4K, 30 Fps is more than enough for YT, and that's all I need it for. Now, I need advice about affordable lenses, just one lens, that is proper for vlogging and creating short art films. I hear that the lens makes a cinematic feel, even more than the camera, so I need your help here. What lens should I buy, if I could bud buy just one?

[@diggerdog6649]

Thanks for the info. Too bad cannon doesn't have what go pro has on video. (1080/2.7k/4k) I have found that my camera doesn't heat up any more than on 1080 in the 2.7k mode but the clarity is still excellent. I use that setting out in the woods. The other thing is that there is a adapter enabling you to use the older AF/MF cannon lens on the R50 which I plan to do. Again thanks for the info.

[@DA-yd2ny]

The problem I would have with this Camera is that you have no budget lenses to pair it with……

[@michaelbell75]

The RF 16, 35 and 50 are all budget lenses. Several zooms too....The main problem with the R50 is that it's overpriced by about $200.

[@hufman9807]

I really wish the close up demo mode was just an autofocus setting and not a conepletly seperate video mode...

[@MARI-be7kw]

Nice camera but the speed light shoe give more problem . can't use universal speed light .need adapter and adapter is not easy to find

[@typhfanuwu7526]

Hey was was your mic glitching a alot thru the video?

[@DeSireeAlicea19]

I currently have the R7 and use the m50 as my travel camera. The lens selection is so vast for the M50 it’s ridiculous compared to the RF mount 😭 I have two lenses for my R7 currently and that’s the sigma 18-35mm f1.8 (w/ an adapter ofc) and a TTartisans 24mm t1.05 (native). Switching to this RF mount has turned me towards manual lenses, which isn’t necessarily bad but autofocus as an option is so nice. I don’t think I’ll upgrade my M50 until it dies at this point 🤧🤚🏾

[@michaelbell75]

First time I have heard anyone say the M lens selection is vast. There are like 9 lenses lol

[@crashryanphoto]

Have you tried time-lapse on the R50? I have an M50 ... but debating upgrading to an R10 for a few bucks more.

[@michaelbell75]

Ive got bad news for you if you are expecting dozens of RF-S lenses, it won't happen. Most people put FF lenses on their crop body cameras for various reasons. Much better image quality, the longer focal length and the fact that the lens won't become useless if they upgrade to a FF camera. I always used to put an EF 50mm 1.8 on my crop sensor Rebel cameras. Why? Because I got an 85mm 1.8 for MUCH cheaper than actually buying an EF 85mm lens. The main problems with the R50 is that it's about $200 overpriced.

[@yaruishangjagoi2304]

R those photos shown edited?

[@skr221167]

What lens should I consider buying for the R50 for my photography studies.

[@HyunRalphJeong]

depends in your budget but you can always start with the kit lens and maybe get some primes like 50mm f1.8 and 16mm f2.8

[@miata350]

The autofocus seems pretty fast

[@footballmanagervlog6810]

Why do ou not show 1080p 60fps? There are a lot of people who walk around with a camera and record handheld and don't need a pseudo cinematic look. Just waiting for smooth :(

[@DannyJ_Films]

I do know the canon 90D has a dedicated ISO button on the top of the camera

[@niladrimodak1887]

How does it compare with the nikon z50. Is it better than the r50??

[@roystonlodge]

1) Does is have a 3.5mm port for an external microphone? 2) Can is shoot at 24fps/

[@HyunRalphJeong]

Yes and yes

[@abhishekbishwokarma4527]

Which is the right option canon r50 or the Panasonic lumix g85?

[@michaelbell75]

I have the R50 and G95. Prefer the r50 for photos and G95 for photos. Depends what you want to do.

[@beachboy0505]

Excellent video 📹 Just get an adapter

[@danypromax]

Which one is better for begginer and first camera sony zv e10 or canon R50?

[@HyunRalphJeong]

They're both great but the Canon is probably a bit easier to use and more versatile.

[@deshitraveller4713]

Should I go for R50 or canon 90D..?

[@-grey]

R50.

[@kenduejones]

R50

[@shadainbond]

Can’t you adapt from rfm to ef?

[@HyunRalphJeong]

You can adapt EF mount lenses on RF mount cameras with an adapter, but not the other way around.

[@shadainbond]

@@HyunRalphJeong yes i know , I probably wrote it wrong thats what I meant. So it is possible for the r50 as well!?

[@HyunRalphJeong]

@@shadainbond yep, you can adapt EF lenses on the R50.

The autofocus is nowhere near which is the main selling point of Canon and Sony cameras over others.

I had the m50, got stolen last week :(, now im thinking getting the r50, wich btw is less expensive than the m50 back in the day... In mexico the m50 is still being sold at a higher price😅

[@priyamulchandani7700]

Buy the canon eos 550d it is a great camera from 2010 it is very good trust me.

[@subratamondal8929]

This camera photographs can be taken

[@AnandaGarden]

The M50 gives us electronic shutter at the lowest price yet for Canon, which allows us to use an EF or RF long lens for events and get 1.6x silently. That's intriguing for me, especially if the sensor is as good as the 7D and 7D II with Canon L lenses (very good).

[@HyunRalphJeong]

The sensor in this is miles head the ones in 7Ds.

[@BeYounique21]

Canon or sony is better?

[@zegzbrutal]

[@ray4493]

No you idiots, this is a great upgrade over M50. R50 is targeted towards beginners with a budget to go over M50. It does everything right over M50, which is overhyped garbage. M50 can't even do dual pixel af in 4k. Pathetic
