Is the Canon R50 ACTUALLY That Bad?

[@odysskon8127]

I haven’t heard ANYONE say that it’s bad. So the title just doesn’t make sense. I’ve mostly heard positives about it.

[@Ramentop88]

Attention grabbing title for the clicks

[@jamismirs2369]

R50 is not bad. Y'all just hatin it because its cheap and it can almost go toe to toe with your $4,000 camera.

[@johncunha319]

Some camera reviews make me laugh. They mention the R7 is better, the R6 is better, the R6 is better, the R5 is better and on and on. Making $30 per hour is better than making $15, $20 and on and on. You buy what you can afford and what you're needs are. That's it. I enjoyed your review. No need to mention other cameras in reviews like others do.

[@Anotheronefilms]

Personally I love the small size and the image quality is fantastic. Auto focus is also great. I think it’s a great value the price.

[@kyleanderson9281]

Canon's APSC cameras are actually very good. I used an R7 as a professional photojournalist for quite a while, and even with old glass, was more than able to keep up with the big dogs at Reuters and AP dumping $10k+ on R3s and A1s with the newest glass. I wish, however, they put the same R&D into quality, L-series APSC focused glass. I'm glad they opened the RF-S mount to Sigma, but I think a canon competitor to something like the Sigma 50-100 1.8 could be *killer.* Canon's strong point IMHO has always been their cutting edge, unique lens designs, and it's a crying shame they seem uninterested in bringing that to APSC.

[@JosephMartin]

absolutely! Canon is definitely treating APSC as an exclusively beginner level sensor, but when it comes to photography, they can compete at pro levels! I'd love to see them build an APSC camera with pro-grade software. I wonder if the smaller sensor could increase processing speed for things like burst photos etc.

[@kyleanderson9281]

@@JosephMartin That's what the R7 is. If you'd have somehow fooled me into thinking the little bugger was a full frame camera, with the body features, software, and speed of that camera, I'd have assumed it was a 4 or 5 thousand dollar body. Seriously. You should give an R7 a try if you ever have the chance.

[@JJARCHIE]

the main problem is the severe rolling shutter in videos , around 33ms in full readout - leading to a 1,7x crop in 4k60

[@kyleanderson9281]

@@JJARCHIE The crops for certain video formats aren't ideal, sure - but I shot lots of video with my R7 and never had a problem that was distracting or anything for my uses. That kind of stuff can be worked out, too. I just sadly don't think the Canon community will show the demand for it in that sector. Any Canon shooters looking for top-end video specs probably just bought an R5, R6, or the appropriate II editions.

[@KevinRedder]

@@kyleanderson9281 why don't Canon turn their aps-c camera sensors into backside-illuminated?

[@berraucuncuu6619]

I was thinking to buy r50 for start. I hope it will be usefull for making short films or any of my school projects. Would it be really useless? I mean half hour is really limited for works.

[@JosephMartin]

It totally depends on your needs! Plenty of creators would find this camera to be more than enough- others need higher end features. In the end, it’s up to you!

[@terence0928]

I actually use this camera for sports photography just upgrade the lens

[@Wildridefilms]

What camera and lens did you shoot this video on? The R6 and what lens? The autofocus was continuously going in and out and the focus breathing on that lens made it nauseating

[@JosephMartin]

It’s the R6 and the Canon EF 16-35 f4 L. I noticed that one shot on the boardwalk had a lot of trouble with AF for some reason and it’s not the first time that’s happened with this lens. Maybe an issue with adapting EF to RF mount?

[@StarLightDotPhotos]

It's not enough for you. But it's enough for most of the amateurs coming from a smart phone.

[@JosephMartin]

It’s definitely a great stepping stone! All depends on what you need it for. :)

[@noobmaster2927]

Bro can you tell me how much zoom (optical),is offering by the lens rf 55 210 mm

[@ghalibsworld]

R50 users or those beginners who wish to get a camera within 600USD - never think beyond ket lens at least first five months. Their only lens is usually a kit lens. At this point, Canon R50 or R10 or even R100 will never shine. Canon offer them the worst kit lens ever. The RF-S 18-45mm F4.5 to 6.3. It could be as good as M50 kit lens.

[@jakefelzien]

Great stuff Joseph!

[@JosephMartin]

Thank you thank you!

[@mercygirl317]

at 4:47 was that somebody ducking down creeping behind your car👀

[@JosephMartin]

😂 i dont think so but maybe! People don’t know what to do when they see a camera

[@Dannymiles1987]

My family gifted me this camera. I am having a great time in my garden.

[@JosephMartin]

That’s a great gift! Glad you’re enjoying it :)

[@QuintonmcGaming]

what a good cheap camera n lens to use for club photogrphy

[@SpartanMentalitiy]

ASK AND YOU SHALL RESIVIE SEEMS LIKE A FOLLOWER OF THE MOST HIGH

[@JosephMartin]

🙏🔥

[@JJARCHIE]

it needed log , it really needed it , they snuck in 10bit hdr instead . . . .

[@JosephMartin]

Yeah and the hdr isn’t even worth the file size increase

[@JJARCHIE]

@@JosephMartin yeah , the 10bit hdr if it was available log it wouldve savaged sony" zve10ii even since not a lot of people need 4k60 anyway. Shame , really

[@hohhan1978]

Dude PQ is even better for color gading than C-Log. Its gamma curve and gamut is much better than C-log 3 ever was...

[@CMDRyassuu]

Good video, but how is this a budget and entry-level, it's a pretty large investment 😅

[@JosephMartin]

thanks! I suppose budget is all relative, but this is one of the cheapest options Canon has available and lacks some of the features common in pro or pro-sumer camera bodies.

[@CMDRyassuu]

@@JosephMartin make sense, I suppose it'd be justified considering you can keep the good RF lenses when upgrading to pro cameras if this proves to be something you're passionate about.

[@imnikshay]

maybe the 18-55mm kit lens is TRASH

[@JackBlack444]

Who needs 1 hour constant filming, i Dont.😂😂 i shoot several minutes and make a paste afterwards, from all the best footage, i dont like vloggers anyway that shoot very long!😂😂

[@JosephMartin]

Mostly podcasters and documentarians!

[@KevinRedder]

I'd rather get second hand Sony a6400 for 600USD than to buy R50 brand new.

[@JosephMartin]

Second hand is the way to go for a lot of gear! the A6400 is a great camera
