It's about time that Canon added 4K to a consumer camera-it's currently only available in the pro-grade EOS 5D Mark IV and EOS-1D X Mark II SLRs and in its cinema cameras. But what's in the EOS M50 was not the right way to do it.

Compact; 24MP APS-C image sensor; 10fps burst; 7.4fps with tracking; Wide focus coverage area; Vari-angle touch LCD; Mic input; EVF; Wi-Fi

4K video is cropped with slower autofocus; Native lens options still limited; Limited shots when shooting Raw bursts

The design of this camera makes it easy to hold and use,the grip on the right just fits my hand nicely.I've invested in the 18-150mm zoom lens and this is proving to be a cracker, recommended

Canon EOS M50 review: This mirrorless camera is really compact, and yet can pass off as a point-and-shoot device.

Priced around Rs 62,000 with the basic lens, the Canon EOS M50 is a great option for those who want the versatility of the DSLR with the portability of a compact camera. In fact, this is one camera that has got me thinking if I should upgrade.

The Canon EOS M50 is a compact mirrorless camera that shoots 4K. It has an affordable price tag, but suffers from significant rolling shutter.

Even though it's described as an Entry-level mirrorless camera, it puts many higher priced alternatives to shame. Nice and easy to use, yet offers me plenty of control. The only minor complaints are that a rear dial would be a little more useful to me, and the limited maximum aperture of the zooms.

Canon has been pushing its mirrorless EOS M series for some time, but the M50 finally looks like it's hit the s...

Fast Dual Pixel CMOS AF; Built-in electronic viewfinder; Excellent vari-angle touchscreen

Unexpected 4K limitations; Manual lens retracting mechanism; Simplified exterior controls

It's fair to say Canon missed the start gun for mirrorless cameras, with Fujifilm, Panasonic and Olympus already well down the track and pulling away.

It’s no mirrorless wundercam, but the M50 is a solid little performer and an ideal first camera for smartphone upgraders

Small and light; Good viewfinder; Looks like a mini DSLR

Dials and controls might be too limited for some; Limited battery life; Small selection of native lenses right now
