Today I’m going to compare the Canon M50 and the Canon M6 MK II for both photography and video. These are two great options from #Canon for someone is looking for an APS-C sensor mirrorless camera.
The M50 has been super popular and it will be interesting to see if the M6MKII can replace it.
I’ll cover the strengths and weaknesses of the #M50 and the #canonm6mkii for both photography and video, and compare everything from body type, framerate and resolution, autofocus, lens options, audio features, and ergonomics.
I will also look at the Canon M50 and the Canon M6MKII in terms of battery life, burst shooting, viewfinder and weather sealing.
Finally I’ll tell you which option I think is best for different uses.

Another great video at the start of it I almost felt like maybe I made a mistake with my M 50. But when weighing the options for Price and the camera screen and the viewfinder I know I’ve made the right choice for my budget! Thank you for a well created professional and informative video. Nate M.

[@TechGearTalk]

I'm glad you're not looking at it in a vacuum Nate. They are both great options for sure.

[@3wheelie]

I bought the M6 mkii for six months ago and I’m super satisfyed with this. I also bought the lenses, 22 mm, 32 mm, 11-22 mm, 55-200 mm plus the kit lens that follows with the camera .👍

[@k.k8791]

Great as always. M6 mii definitely better but the m59 for its price range suits me more I simply can't put 1k$ on a camera now specially when it's the first i own in term of this level .i usually used compact cameras and i squeeze their best it's time to upgrade now and the m50 is a good start

[@RicG.]

Another excellent review - well done. I bought an M-50 about 2 months ago, so I'll be sticking with that one for a while. But it's always good to keep up with what else is out there.

[@TechGearTalk]

Thanks Ric! Congrats on the M50!

[@jasonjtg21]

I did it. I pulled the trigger and picked up the M6 I had the M50 waiting for me at BestBuy, however. the fact I can get a clean video out and the larger sensor and the focus points of the M6. Thank you for the detailed information. I really appreciate it. this will be a great camera for live streaming.

[@TechGearTalk]

CONGRATS Jason!!! I love my M6mkii and have more content coming for you!

[@jpibeyond7302]

I started my KZbin channel in April because I needed to start something new and exciting during coronavirus. So far I uploaded about 14 videos all done by iPhone. I experienced overheating my iPhone w/DJI gimbal one day and I’ve decided to purchased a camera. To make a long story short, after changing my mind millions of times I purchased Cannon M5. Of course via your site. Thank you very much. And I look forward to keep learning from you.

[@TechGearTalk]

Good working starting something new and congrats on the new camera!!! Appreciate the kind words and support!

[@DocBoA]

Top notch content upload once again. I rented the a6400 after watching your review and though I love the af, the limited touch functionality is a deal breaker for me. My question is, will the 22mm with the viltrox speed booster be wide enough to vlog and will it bring out the superior image quality of the m6 mk2 sensor. I appreciate the work you put into doing quality work. Salut

[@TechGearTalk]

What's up brother! Thanks for all the support! The 22mm won't work with the speed booster for two reasons. 1. It's a mirrorless lens. 2. it's an aps-c lens. The speed booster only works with full frame dslr lenses. Hope that makes sense.

[@akshaykumar_r]

This is the comparison I've been waiting for!! :D

[@TechGearTalk]

Glad I could deliver!

[@TechnikMeister2]

Nice review. Unfortunately in Australia, Canon tend to go for the gouge on pricing with new models: The Canon M50 with kit lens can be had anywhere here, including Amazon for $750. Unfortunately, if you add the EVF to the M6Mk2, it lists at $1460. The Nikon Z50 with lens is $1450 and the Sony a6400 with lens is $1350. So right now and considering the lack of integrated EVF and outrageous pricing, the Canon is not competitive. If Canon put a proper EVF in and dropped the price to $1200, it starts to be competitive.

[@TechGearTalk]

Thank you and appreciate all the info! I'm always shocked at the price differences.

[@RolieKloeOlie]

Auto bracketing is huge in the m6mkii. I currently have an m200 and I love it’s small form factor but I plan to upgrade to an m6 in the future. Thanks for the cool vid

I've watched almost all of your reviews, and I want to request you to please consider making a detailed review on how to shoot photos like you've shot with M50.

Sagi you’re killing it with these videos. I have watched an unhealthy amount of your reviews and comparisons. I still can’t decide which camera. I’m down to 3 right now the X-T30, M6 Mark II and a6400. Now my purpose is going to be mostly traveling and pictures of my dog being a Tasmanian Devil. Not a lot of videos will be happening. Any additional insights or opinions on this choice would be very helpful. Thanks!

[@TechGearTalk]

Thanks so much Daniel! What you said "unhealthy amount" I was 😂🤣 Get the a6400 because of the animal eye auto-focus (watch today's video to see a real-life example with the a6600 - same af system for dogs) Let me know if you have followup questions.

[@SargontheGreat77]

Tech Gear Talk thanks so much. I ended up buying two cameras. I bought the a6400 for me and the X-T30 for my wife. My wife loves car races she is always going to events from drag races to Indy car. I thought the small size and 30fps burst mode would be very helpful. I am a little disappointed that the crane m2 gimbal doesn’t support Fuji shutter or zoom.

[@TechGearTalk]

Nice! You have ALL the nice cameras now!

[@gianni2272]

Your videos were so helpful for me to make up my mind which camera to get. Choosing the right camera turned out to be a harder exercise than i expected. I decided on the canon m6 mark ii, as it seems to share a lot of specs with the 90d, but is smaller and lighter for on my travels. Can’t wait to start experimenting with it!

[@krakapoww]

How do u feel now that Canon Dropped the m series?

[@gianni2272]

@@krakapoww Well that was actually no surprise at all, the rumours were already there when I bought the camera. In my opinion it still rocks, I still love the power of it considering the small body. It is not the only body I own i should add but its still a go to camera of mine for travel and street photography

[@ss11733]

right now it's a price difference (for the kits) between $1,099 and $599. This is my first nice digital camera and I can't justify spending nearly 2x the price of the m50. Especially since the money saved can afford me studio lighting and food for a few weeks 😂. At least you've shown that the m50 punches above its weight in a few ways. Thank you

Great perspective my friend. I think you will love the M50! Let me know how it works out for you 👊

[@BackpackeRom]

why am I watching this while I know I’ll never get the M6 II? 😂I currently own the M50 II

[@AlexCruzHaha]

Always love getting more information from your videos, so awesome. My canon m50 has a loose mic jack issue and repairing it could cost around 200 so I am thinking about upgrading instead, but I really like the flip out screen. I don't know whether to buy another m50, fix the current one, or upgrade to the m6 mark ii haha. What do you think?

[@TechGearTalk]

So glad the videos are helpful. If you love the M50 and you don't want things like 4k, I would probably just save the money.

[@LAAM619]

for vlogging, m50 still wins. it MUST flip the screen out to the side. my mic goes on top.

That makes sense to me. I'm switching to the Rode wireless go so we'll see.

[@YourMajesty143]

One of the reasons I went with the Canon m50 over Sony A6300 & other competitors was the flip-out screen and in-camera autofocus/image stabilization combo.

[@YourMajesty143]

One of the reasons I went with the Canon m50 over Sony A6300 & other competitors was the flip-out screen and in-camera autofocus/stabilization combo. Also, I was told none of the ef-m lenses can resolve the newer 32.5 megapixels --- even the sharpest prime lens of 32mm is unable to handle it --- so I'm not seeing the benefit for upgrading just yet. As for the higher choice of shots during quick-bursts, you can't use the silent shooting mode which is a serious limitation for wildlife or sports photography. Also, don't forget that both m50 and m6mkii have shutter actuations of 10,000. So just like car mileage, the higher the shutter is used, the more mileage you're putting on your camera & the more likely the camera is to malfunction with wear & tear. This is why I refuse to buy used cameras, especially if I'd prefer to reserve shutter counts for timelapse. The minimum 1/30s shutter speed isn't a big deal for me since I already own an external intervalometer for longer exposures. If you need to capture a quick moving object, then just increase your shutter speed. Simple. I know of people who rely on quick-bursts as a crutch to capture good photos bc they haven't been willing to try to learn the photography skill of timing your shot. It's a good skill to learn whether you're an amateur or pro ☺

[@TiffanieMichelle]

Hey there! Maybe a low light video both inside under “house lights” at night and perhaps outside at sunset until the image is lost. Detailing the settings as the lighting changes 👍🏻

[@TechGearTalk]

Got it. Ok, so to be totally transparent, I would do my best to never shoot under those conditions. I would always add a source of light (even if it's a tiny LED) because no camera with a kit lens will give you good results. Even with a fast lens (which is what you need for that wide aperture) you'll want a source of light. I mean, I would even go as far as using my iphone flashlight if I needed to to add light. Check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2PLpGt4hLmLmJY Since it looks like you're getting serious and growing a channel, is there any chance you could invest is a small light? That will make your life so much easier. If not, you'll want to position yourself next to some outdoor light. The Kit lens is going to be a major hurdle, especially if you can't get a light source. I hope this response makes sense.

Here the difference is much larger, M50 kit is 520 € and M6 II is about 1250 € (with the 15-45 lens and EVF). I bought M50 last march for 570 € including the body case and the brown strap. I love it with the exception that the clock is almost 5 seconds a day too fast (according to Canon within the specs)

great content! Thank you for putting this video together! For me, I wanted to replace my 6D with something that had similar functionality (intermediate photography) but was easier to transport/travel with. I'm really torn but leaning toward the M6 mkii. I haven't gotten into video as much just yet but I may down the road.

[@TechGearTalk]

I'm super glad it was helpful Terrance! The M6MKII is really a fantastic camera for stills as long as you're ok with the optional EVF. Thank you for the kind words and for joining the community 🙏

[@hyttennis]

Yes, the M6 mk ii is unquestionably the better camera, but is the price difference justified considering the lack of EVF, fully articulating screen and NFC connectivity? I don't believe so.

[@paulahiltonen4018]

i just purchased and received the M6Markii in the mail today and just want i was looking for better resolution, uncropped 4K and ready for the future after hearing your video i so glad i made this purchase.

One question would my lenses i use for my 35MM canon fit on my new M6 mark ii if i get that special attachment for it to fit other lenses.

The M6 mark2 is my choise, when looking at specs, but the M50 wins when it comes to flipscreen, price and evf. Sources say, that there is a M50 mark2 in the pipeline with M6 mark2- specs. I hold my breath until we know for sure

I’m torn! If I’m an entry level film maker, and I plan on focus pulling and getting comfortable using mainly manual focus, do you recommend the m50? Is the 4K more useable with manual focus? I don’t plan on vlogging much, just some free lance and local projects. Let me know, I need help deciding!! Great work.

[@TechGearTalk]

Hi there. Yes, the 4K is more usable with manual focus (you'll still have the additional crop - so keep that in mind). Hope that helps.

[@AlexVasquezyt]

Tech Gear Talk Good point... But with one of the sigma wide angle’s, the m50 is pretty hard to beat, right?

[@KutWrite]

Looking at the portraits at about 13:00 and 16:00, the Sony 6600 in your other review looks much sharper to my eye. It's more money, but at this moment, I'm leaning that direction. Hope you do a comparo...so far I only see the Sony a6400 v M6 MkII.

Its been a great camera for a starting point but i feel like i want to upgrade without going into very expensive territory especially on lenses (such as full frame RF lenses) would you say its a good upgrade to go from the m50 to the m6 mark ii? Or should i spend more and get something like the RP or R? Would the difference be really noticeable on both video and stills?

[@jrinfo4917]

Same question here!

[@IamTROY15]

Before I watched the video I looked up the price of the M6 and saw that it’s nearly double the price of the M50 so... convince me how a camera that’s double the price is killing the M50

[@TechGearTalk]

Hi Troy. My goal is not to convince you that one camera is right for you over another. I also accept that things are not the same for everyone. To some, when you look at body, lenses, batteries, SD cards, support, lighting, gimbal, slider, etc. the $270 price difference is not a deal breaker. That goes up to $470 if you have to pay for the EVF. Finally, in different countries, the prices are different. Someone just told me today that where they live the M6MKII is 2.5x the price. Thanks for contributing to the community.

[@IamTROY15]

Tech Gear Talk I get what you’re saying. So In different regions the price difference isn’t as drastic, but where I’m at the M6 Is double the price of the M50 so it feels unfair to compare the 2 just when there’s such an enormous price difference. Personally I shoot on the M50 so I will admit that I’m probably a little biased, but for the price there aren’t too many cameras that compare. I personally think that it is one of the best most consumer friendly mirrorless cameras for that price. But that’s just me. I do appreciate the informative nature of all your videos tho so please keep coming with good content.

I would prefer the M50 as I won't be using all the options on a M6 mark 2 and I like a view finder, my question is simple does the EF-M lens work better on the M50 or is the no difference if you use the speed booster adapter with EF-S lens in quality of the picture? As I have a few EF-S lenses My 24 mm pancake and my EF-S 18-135 this my only problem do I go over completely EF-M lense and sell the EF-S lense? Thank you 😊 Adrian Straatman

[@IamTROY15]

@@asstraatman I use a speedbooster and it has seemed to work very well for me. The only issue that i have with Canon is that their EF-M line of lenses is so small. Grab an adapter and/or a speed booster and you'll be good. One plus is that if you do get both the regular adapter AND a speedbooster you'll be able to use the same lens and get different focal lengths.

[@asstraatman]

@@IamTROY15 Thank you I will go and buy an M50 now and the adapter first the comlite comix CM-EF-EOS M adapter (unless you suggest another make?) and use my EF-s lenses for now especially my pancake 24 mm which I love. Kind regards, Adrian Straatman

I'LL BE CHOOSING THE M6 MARK II. I THINK I'VE SEEN YOU DOWNTOWN TAKING PICTURES BEFORE, GOOD PRODUCT KNOWLEDGE MY GUY!

[@TechGearTalk]

It's such a good camera. If you see me again, feel free to say hello! Let me know how it works out for you.

[@GregDolan]

Great video, thank you so much. Would love to see the vidoe on the Speed Booster and also the advantages or disadvantages of the other adopter mentioned. I'm cautious about buying a mirrorless camera as I dont really understand how the adopters work, for example how do they effect autofocus, imagine quality e.t.c . Thank you.

[@TechGearTalk]

Will do Greg! The adapters don't do anything to IQ and AF because they simply push the lenses farther out so that it can focus (there is no glass). The speedbooster is something else because you're adding a glass element between the lens and the sensor

[@shauryalall]

Watched a lot of your videos! You are amazing,you have convinced me to buy the 200d mark 2. A mirrorless camera Is not the one for me. I'll be making tech vids in future and that camera seems perfect! Quality Content!

I bought the sigma 16mm 1.4 lens for my canon 250D it didn’t size it I’ve used the whole day searching for the adapter that can let me use it 😢all to non avail, so I decide to sell it and get canon m50 because the sigma lens is EF-M lens. I’m so confused 😢I don’t know what to do please I need a solution

[@TechGearTalk]

There is no adapter from ef-m to EF because the lens is designed to be closer to the sensor (you can adapt lenses from EF to EF-M because the adapter acts as a spacer). See if this video helps: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqewkKVsh9dkaLc

I’m looking to upgrade from the M 50 mark 2. I have both EFM and EF lens. I also starting live-streaming for my church. I was thing of moving up to the RP for high ISO performance but the M6 mark 2 has better focusing. Your opinion ?

[@markanderson6639]

On the clean HDMI output would you go with M6MKII or the Canon SL3?

[@OlaJustin]

Thank you for this video. Realized the M6 mark II would be worth it for me since atleast I can easily see the audio levels before shootng. That and dual pixel focus in 4k. Now lets hope for some serious rebates on black friday. 😂

[@squashvids1032]

Hi. At 15:30 you couple the 100mm 2.8L macro with the M6 MKII. Is it too big a lens for that body? It worries me that these two together might be too cumbersome to operate while shooting frogs and snakes with external flashes. Perhaps a DSLR is a better choice? Thanks. Juan

[@dimtass]

Thanks for your reviews. I have a question for you since you have both. Which one you find yourself use more often when you go outside with your family? M50 or M6? Also which lens you use more in a family trip when you have to travel light. Personally, I'm coming from a Canon DSRL and I own several vintage and EF lenses, but now with the kids I find myself avoid to get the DSLR with me because it's too heavy and not practical for a day walk. Thanks in advance!

[@TechGearTalk]

I take the M6mkii more. If I can only bring one lens, it's probably the kit lens because it's versatile. If I want the smallest and lightest, I go with the 22mm. Check out these few lens videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHuXdJKIeaqaa7s and kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYWoYYucj82koJY and if you want more info on the sigma trio kzbin.info/www/bejne/q4C1hWSam8qGZq8 Hope that helps Dimitris

[@st199]

Hello, I currently have a canon 80d which is too heavy for hiking. I am about to go on the hiking trip of a lifetime and need a smaller camera. I will be doing mostly landscape photos with some sweeping short videos. I build calendars off of them and need to produce mostly small-medium size photos and rarely 10x12 photos. I also occasionally do astrophotography. I am torn because of price. I love sharp* images BUT I love the articulating screen of the M50. My question is with a good lens, can both produce large nice landscape photos(that large)? and which lenses would you recommend(kit, canon, vs sigma)? I shoot in RAW and would like to take only one or 2 good lenses with me as weight is a big factor on long hikes. I appreciate your videos and recommendations! Thanks. Sheri

[@NaturalMentalHealthTreatments]

I’m thinking of upgrading to the M50 II because it does vertical portrait video for Instagram, does the M6II film vertical for Instagram? Thanks

Hi. It does not. You’d have to rotate it.

[@TechGearTalk]

Great question Rohit. Both of these have the center pin so you can use a third-party flash. I have no issues using a quality third-party flash and trigger. In this video, I used the Godox AD200 Pro with the XPro trigger. Hope this helps.
