Our verdict
The EOS R50 is Canon's smallest RF-mount mirrorless, built for first-time buyers and content creators. Its 24.2MP APS-C sensor delivers uncropped oversampled 4K 30p, 15 fps bursts and Canon's reliable Dual Pixel AF II with subject detection. A vari-angle touchscreen and guided menus make it approachable, though the modest battery, lack of stabilisation and limited RF-S lens range are the compromises at this entry price point.
