In terms of size, the M50 mark ii is bigger than the Sony a6000 series cameras, the Olympus OMD EM10 mk IV (that name is a mouthful) and the Sony ZV-E10. Those being the closer competitors to it. That being said, it's still a compact camera so it's great to grab on the go and it can do the work. I never said that it couldn't. I just wouldn't recommend it in 2023 since you can get better performers for the same money.

Very helpful and thanks for the recommendations.

Update!: With the release of Canon R50, that definitely goes up to the top of the recommendation list right next to the ZV-E10. Both have some benefits over each other, but for a general budget camera, both are absolutely fantastic options. Though if you want to take photos, the R50 unsurprisingly takes the cake since it has an EVF. I want to point out that I made the review from the point of view of content creation. So, most of the critique has to do with it's video capabilities. For most looking to do photography, (not sports or wildlife) almost any modern camera paired with a good lens will get you great images once you learn to use the camera. And the M50 mk II is no exception. I would still rather extend my budget to either the R10 or something like an a6400 from Sony, but if you're looking to do just photography, the difference from the M50 mk II and even something like the Sony a6000 is pretty small.

You get on point, thanks for your advice.

I have the M50 Mk II and I use it with the Canon 28mm f3.5 macro lens which *has* image stabilization. AFAIK, it's the only prime EF-M with IS. It's a bit slow at f3.5 but sharper than the kit lens and great for street photography or video - as well as macro, of course. I also use the Sigma 16mm f1.4, on a tripod for landscape, or with a gimbal for video - fantastic lens, sharp and bright. No other lenses needed, altogether the cost this kit for the quality was amazingly low.

Maybe I am an old git but I have a Canon M10, M200 and M50Mk2, this "beginner camera" talk baffles and irritates me and as soon as a vlogger mentions beginner I stop watching. This time I watched to the end just to see if there was anything nice to be said about the M50. Almost ANY camera is a good camera, the good results come from the brain directing the index finger pressing the shutter button (I use the middle finger to press the shutter, it gives more stability). People cannot tell the difference when I take a photo with a 2007 Canon SX200. Going out of production? I still have 10 years usage available until I replace these cameras.

@@GavinThomas-pix I think you're talking about content creators when you say "vlogger". Not a big deal but it just bothers me a bit since all content creators are not vloggers. But more on the topic, the "beginner" terminology mostly comes from the fact that the majority of professionals use more feature rich, full frame cameras. I'm not saying that you can't be a professional with something like an m50, but more-so in reference to its aimed audience. For the timing skill vs burst, it's a choice in workflow. If someone becomes perfect at timing their shot so they only need to go on instinct and they get fantastic shots, that's fantastic! And they can be less dependent on their cameras capabilities for that. But if someone wants it to be less "risky" and "cut corners" by shooting in burst, and they're willing to do the culling of a lot of images for it, that's completely okay as well. In the end, what matters is what the end result is and whether or not you, or the client is happy with the outcome.

The m50 is for me the perfect solution in 2023 because. Put a speedbooster on it plus a 24-105 f 4 and boom ful sensor and f 2.7 apenture. Nothing beats that for that price. Oh yeah I also slapped a aluminum case on it so it handles better and is better protected.

I just want to say that I have this camera and have tested it with many lenses for photography and I agree with everything you say here. If the subject is perfectly still this camera will be good for you. However, even slow moving subjects like a cat you will struggle to get focus on quickly. I also find the crop to be a huge downside for my use case as most of my subjects are very close to me and most of the beautiful lenses I've tried are not usable due to the crop.

I can control my studio flashes, Godox flashes everything. It makes great photos both macro, landscape and in the studio and quite honestly if you already have the appropriate equipment why then switch to RF. Admittedly, in the future I will certainly no longer buy EF-M lenses and the next camera will certainly Eos R but until then I have now probably only a few years rest and save me the money to then buy the RF lenses used.

The R series lenses are prohibitively expensive and Canon is forbidding 3rd parties from manufacturing lenses for the R-series cameras. The R10 is very close to the same size but with full-sized lenses. The R10 is superior and doesn't have the 4K issue - but lenses! If you buy any R-series camera you're going to need an adapter to run EF and EF-S lenses unless money is no object. EF-M mount lenses on the other hand, are plentiful, have great 3rd party support, and are very affordable. I would still recommend the M50 Mark II on this alone.

If you can get it for really cheap possibly with some lenses, but I would much rather go for something like the Canon R50 as it's just a better version of this camera. The selection of lenses that fit into the R50 (RF lens) is limited and expensive but you can use an RF to EF adapter (called a mount adapter) and still use some older, cheaper high quality lenses. That way if you want to upgrade down the line, your camera can use RF lenses.

What's a good lens in your opinion?

If you get Canon EOS M50 less then $500 kit lens (15-45mm or 18-55mm) I think still a good deal in 2023. Dual autofocus make a different compare other Brand at that price. LMK!

Even though it takes away from the wideness of the lense does it affect resolution or does it remain true 4k in resolution?

I'm assuming you're talking about the crop? As best as I've been able to find, due to the crop the 4k footage is indeed 4k. Unlike other cameras like the ZV-E10 which does 6k and downsamples that to 4k. However as you add the stabilisation, the footage is cropped in further, so it's as if you had zoomed in on a 4k video when considering the quality.

What's your opinion with this vs Sony EV1F for vlogging and talking head and webcam live stream content?

Is there a reason why the ZV-E10 is not in that comparison? I strongly recommend watching @geraldundone 's video on the zv-1f. The camera's relevant pretty much only if you really don't want an interchangeable lens camera, but in that case, the M50 Mk II is out of the count as well. If an interchangeable lens camera is an option, then the ZV-E10 wins over the M50 Mk II in those use-cases by a mile.

The cost involved to sell everything and get back similar lenses... Probably wouldn't be cheap.

So I had actually thought of what you suggested, but i Figured if my camera can last another 5 years... That should outweigh the cost of changing.. What do you mean by manual focus for talking head btw? If I just use 1080p, would that be an issue? For comparison... Taking into account price where I live...

From all the videos i seen.. it seems that the canon takes better pictures and battery last longer. And the sony coloring is kind of off especially outside so theres some adjustments…i do like that the canon has a flash idk im stuck between the 2.

Have watched a lot of videos--basically Canon for fotos, Sony ZV-E10 for video

I'm hoping someone can help me here and apologies if this is a daft question. I am VERY amateur but also VERY dedicated when it comes to film-making and wondered if it was worthwhile getting the Canon Mk II second hand (I can find it for about £300-400, or $375-500 USD)? Does it make sense to go for this, or spring for a new one (nearly twice the price) or really save up for the ZVE10, as he suggests? I'm focussing my channel content on musician vlogs: showing typical day-in-the-life stuff, busking, travelling and snippets of performances etc Great video, very helpful up until he made me question my decisions with regards to purchasing a second hard Mk II! :P

I mean you can make the M50 mk ii work but its just a lot of work. Unless 1080p is fine since then it has no crop and the auto-focus still works. Definitely shouldn't buy it new though since Canon priced the R50 in the same price range so it shouldn't be too much more expensive. And that camera is the M50 but without any of the drawbacks.

just buy a 10mm lens and you can record in 4k with an effective lens of about 24mm which is ideal for vlogging. Learn how to use the depth of field scale and you don't even need Auto Focus. knowledge is power, the pros are out there using stuff that is a few years old because it works and makes them money. they are not jumping ship every few years for the latest and greatest because they have skill and knowhow.

None of this invalidates the fact that there are things that you have to work around (even if the fix is simple). So while the camera itself is completely usable, I simply can't recommend buying into it over the ZV-E10, since those things are non-issues with that.

Well, that really depends on your use-case. Frankly, I can't see a reason to go for the 77D unless you're doing low-action photography and want the better ergonomics. Then again it does have the EF/EF-S mount, so you don't have to adapt to that massive selection of lenses like you do on the M50 Mk II. As a bonus, you can adapt that to RF lenses, which you can't do on the M50.

Built-in flashes, like the one in the M50 mk II, where you can't point the flash anywhere but forward, tend to lead to washed out images with extremely hard shadows. It's generally not a flattering look unless that's the exact style that you're going for.

@villerasku

Жыл бұрын

For photography I'm assuming based on the disposable and polaroid usage? In that case the M50 Mk II will work perfectly fine when you pair it with a good lens. But for that matter, almost any relatively modern camera will work perfectly fine when paired with good glass. In terms of specific cameras, the R50 is the newer and significantly improved version of this camera, but it will set you back more depending on your market. If you're on a budget, I would probably opt for the R50 with an RF to EF adapter and the EF 50mm f1.8 that you can find for really cheap, since that will supplement the kit lens very nicely. If you want a different system though, the Sony a6100 is around the same price as the R50 but it has access to the really budget friendly Sigma lenses. You'd be compromising in terms of video features but for photography, it works better than fine.
