Should I buy the R50?

Lenses are everything so if you have a set budget in mind it's best to invest more in those than in the camera body itself. The R50 is a great camera body for beginners and it uses the same mount as every other professional canon lens so you have a great upgrade path (like the R6 if you invest in a

What next after M50?

Your frustration with Canon discontinuing the M series is understandable, especially considering the excellent balance of quality and portability it offered. The M6 Mark II would indeed be an upgrade for your 4K video needs, but since it’s hard to find, you’re at a crossroads where future-proofing b

What should I do for my R50 grip?

I had my local library 3D print a grip for my R50. I just had to buy a baseplate screw to attach it. This was a big improvement for me. link

What should I do for my R50 grip?

I bought the CBG for the R50. It was well worth it for me. You're telling me that it doubles in price because you are in Canada? Perhaps going to a camera cage instead would be an alternative. At least it would give you something to hold onto. Something like this from Neewer R50 Camera cage It runs

Is it worth going with the EOS R50 over the EOS R100?

It depends on what you want to do, how much you might spend in the future, and if you are okay with buying used: The a6100 is a very similar camera to the R50 - both of them have a plastic body, good autofocus, decent video, and very similar image quality. The design of the body is different of cour

Youth Soccer

Canon R50 with a lens adapter could be a good choice. A little smaller than the camera you have, excellent autofocus compared to what you have (keep it set to AF Servo to track motion, which you can also do on your current camera), and it has an electronic shutter that is silent. However, the electr

Thinking about getting my first camera before moving to Chile, any advice?

Some of the entry level Mirrorless cameras are good for learning, and because of their interchangeable lenses, they have a great deal of flexibility. See the Canon R50, Nikon Z 50 and Z 30 which may be in your budget. The kit lenses that comes with these are lightweight and flexible to start. I also

Beginner friendly camera

In the buying-new but cheap category, the Canon R50 is a much friendlier "beginner" camera. You get autofocus that is in spitting distance of flagship cameras and a simple interface with clearly marked buttons out of the box. It's a "single dial" camera, meaning it is better suited to getting your t
