Our review

The EOS R50 is an ultra-compact mirrorless camera with good photo quality and an impressive autofocus system. Its 4K video quality is decent, though it gets distorted easily if you pan the camera, and you can't take a lot of shots in a row. Aside from that, the R50 is an a solid camera for its price.

Good for: Everyday shooting, wildlife photography, and high-quality video capture.

Not so good for: Those seeking to expand their lens options. People with large hands. Action photographers.
