Canon may have been late to the mirrorless party, but over the last couple of years, it has taken a significant share in this ever-important market. The EOS M50 is an entry-level model that falls between the (£400) EOS M6 and the (£600) EOS M5 , offering beginners a small and affordable camera with...

Easy to use; Fast in operation; Strong set of features

Relatively poor battery life; Kit lens is susceptible to flare

The Canon EOS M50 is Canon's latest mirrorless camera with built-in electronic viewfinder (EVF), and features a 24mp APS-C CMOS sensor, 10fps continuous shooting, 4K video recording, and face-detection focus. The Canon EOS M50 is available for £539 body only.

Compact and easy to use; Wi-Fi; NFC and Bluetooth built-in; High-resolution electronic viewfinder; Great image quality; Face and eye detection focus; 4K video recording; Rapid focus and shutter response; Good value for money

4K video doesn't use dual-pixel focus; 235 shot battery life (can be extended to 370 with ECO mode; Limited Canon EOS-M lens range; 4K video crops heavily into frame

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

Although the limitations imposed on the 4K video mode are frustrating, the M50 is the best Canon mirrorless camera to date. Crucially, the autofocus system, which was so bad in the early days of EOS M, is now very good (provided you limit yourself to shooting stills or Full HD video) and the quality...

Excellent image quality; Superb implementation of touch-control; High-quality viewfinder built-in

4K video mode crops the frame; Plastic feel; Limited lens range

The EOS M50, which was announced on 26 February, just before the CP+ show, is the seventh model in a line which began back in late July 2012. Like the majority of its precursors, the latest model is targeted at snapshooters, with particular focus upon travellers who want a wide range of Auto...

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

The camera shoots pretty good stills and photos and is small enough for carrying around. Some of the features will take time to learn and apply, but well worth it. So far the only complaint i have is the lack of a Bulb feature on the shutter.

very good camera ,but the strap adjuster knocks the microphone in use ,so cannot use strap,battery is small ,ext microphone jack socket is loose in the camera from new ! but every now and then it takes a good shot on auto, which is nice for point and shoot, if you have a new smart phone you may just...

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.

Durable; Great Picture Quality; Lightweight; Simple Controls

Inadequate Features

Currently contacting Canon to check authenticity. The charger has a Chinese company plastered across it which seems odd so I am waiting for Canon to get back to me on that. The Camera itself has passed the serial check and feels great, I have no reason to doubt the camera or lense, im hoping Canon...
