I hope this Canon M50 MK II was helpful. Would love to know what you think. Do you think the Canon M50 MK II is worth buying? I am grateful in advance 🙏
Do you have an affiliate link for the MKII shipping within EU? I wanna buy through your link but I don't wanna pay customs :-) And thank you for great content
@@TechGearTalk Unfortunately the amazon link only shows the regular M50. Perhaps the MKII isn't available in Denmark yet. Some other local stores won't sell it till late March so I'll check your link in the end of the month :) Thank you
Great perspective as always. Despite the weak specs on paper, I had to ask myself what I really needed coming from a 10 year old T3i (600D) - the answer was 1. Reliable continuous autofocus for video, 2. 1080p at 50/60fps, 3. touchscreen 4. compact size and 5. Value - The M50 did all of these while keeping the things I loved from T3i (flip out screen, ease of use, compatibility with my existing lenses and good out-of-box colour). Ended up getting the M50 and am happy.
Just got to say that I've found your channel so amazingly informative and helpful. You don't dumb things down (too much) and I actually feel like I'm learning not only about the products but about photography. Thanks!
Thanks. Finally. Other videos either focus on 4k only or dont care about actual UA-cam streamin, even though they put it in the description. I would love some footage from MK II but oh well. Good job anyway
Thank you SO much for this video! I'm looking to buy my first camera right now and deciding between these two, but I feel like every other video I've watched comparing the two on UA-cam have all been trashing on the Mark 2 for being very little improvement. I mean, I get that, but that info is kinda only useful for people looking to upgrade from Mark 1 to 2. I just needed someone to let me know if getting the Mark 2 was worth it for ME, someone who doesn't have the Mark 1, and you showed me that! So again thank you! :)
I bought the m50 the returned it as soon as I found out I couldn't do clean hdmi. I have the mkii now and it's amazing! It's what I use for UA-cam now.
So agree with you. I've had an M50 for some time and still love it. Bought the M50 Mark II because I knew it would be a solid camera AND I wanted the Clean HDMI out. It also has another bonus feature that few mention...audio monitoring is now available on the flip-out screen which is HUGE!
I’ve been thinking about getting a new camera for Christmas. I literally binge watched every single photography channel on YT. I think this video might’ve been gamechanging Thanks a lot :)
*Wow!!! This is one of the very precise and appropriate reviews I've ever seen. Man, you've got me hooked to see this video till the end and earned a subscriber.* 👍🏽
Nothing hugely wrong with either camera. Great camera for the price point. When you need better futures, you can always upgrade then. Camera bodies don't really hold their value. As soon as the next generation products come out, previous generation's value takes a hit. That's just how it is... Really enjoy it. Use it. Capture memories. Or be productive. Really use it to make your money's worth! 4K and 6K an 8K are nice features and all... but is the price premium worth it to you? I think for most entry-level and average folks, the M50 or Mark II is plenty enough.
I love the Canon M50. I wish canon would add weathersealing as this camera is terrible to use anywhere near water and I live in California where it rarely rains
I don't think this is easy to use. The main problem with this camera is the waiting time between 2 pictures. I would be faster with an analog camera. How much time I lost a shot because of this stupid unexistant buffer/slow as hell processor.
I did do comments on your similar video. Again, for all people watching and all new people who will watch this. Get Canon M50 Mk II, it's incredible and what it can give, it's cheap like a toy 🙂. Highly recommended 👍. This camera will cover most... if not all photographic needs. For me, results are always impressive.
It’s the best camera for my budget. It fits the hand perfectly. Annnnnnd I don’t need a computer. I can pack and use this camera nearly anywhere and edit every with my phone. My only complaint is that it isn’t weather resistant which I desperately need in Hawai’i
Proud M50 Mark II owner 💪🏿 I love it so much, it's a powerhouse and just a great camera for both photographers and videographers. My rebel T6 is a good secondhand camera.
Wow, I bought a brand new M50 with kit lens in 2020 for 500€, and just won a bid for a new M50 Mark II with kit lens for 386€. Amazing deals for both of these cameras. I also recently bought an ATEM Mini Pro ISO, and plan to upgrade my recording studio to an audio/video studio, I plan on doing live streams, interviews, drum videos, and upgrading my UA-cam channel. I´m a big fan of your videos, and have learned a lot from you.Thank you!!!
Great video comparing the M50 and M50 Mark II. Initially it would be assumed a firmware update would solve the problem, but it looks like there are hardware structural changes as well. As an m50 as my second camera now, I recommend as a entry-level / mid-range camera.
The price difference is much higher here in Sweden. The EOS M50 + 15-45mm costs SEK 4990 ($587) new and the EOS M50 Mark II + 15-45 costs SEK 7700 ($904). Most stores have been trying to sell their last copies of the original for a while now.
I own the M50. I agree, is the best for the price, and for most new UA-camrs like me, is more than enough. Nevertheless, I don't feel like Canon has a clear path about the M line. I think about investing in the future and that is about glass, camera bodies come and go but lenses will stay with us a long time. I do prefer investing in sony lenses and sony (photo) cameras seem to be more video-oriented and the future appears to be more clear. Sony a6400, even being older than M50 mkII is way better in my opinion.
I got the MKII to stream on Twitch, it's been a DREAM!! In the market for a lens, so I can't wait to see your Viltrox review before I make the new lease purchase. I already got the canon EF adaptor, I'm just exploring all my options 😃
The newer viltrox speedbooster adapters dont have the same "defects" as the earlier models such as worse chromatic aberrations near the corners and edges. Mine doesn't have any (with a 24-105 f/4L) BUT it has a pink bias in the center that I notice when I put the camera into longer exposures like a second or more. I love how all my EF lenses basically one-up their aperture with the speedbooster. The 24-105 f/4L becomes 2.8 which is perfect for my needs.
Hi! Thanks to your videos I have bought this camera. I will pick it up tomorrow and i am so excited. Here in Perú, prices are higher than US (I think). I paid $950 for the camera, the 45mm kit lens, the adaptor and the extra 75-300mm kit lens. Tomorrow I will rewatch all your videos and start practicing. PS. Is my first camera, I'm just starting in this beautiful world.
I just ordered the MKII about 3 days ago.....your video just showed me that I can wirelessly live stream lol...I bought it for the clean HDMI out and now I can wirelessly live stream?! OMG
hey hey, I live in The Netherlands and the question I keep asking myself is why is everything so hella expensive here. $599 (wich is €496,-) for the body of the mark II is an absolute steal, and why is that? Here in The Netherlands the body of the mark II sells for €619,- wich is equal to $747,-. Man you Americans always make me jelly when it comes to tech products. At least youre video's are great and very honest, and I like that so keep doing the good work :)
Love your videos. Very informative. I just ordered the Sony zv1 for my scrub startup UA-cam channel. But I went back and forth with this camera. They are the same price range.
I bought the Canon RP kit for $999 tax paid sale at Samy's -- comes with the 24-105mm kit lens. A full-frame, with a zoom lens is one super deal. I also got another 3% off for a next purchase, so I got the 50mm $198 for around $171. The M50, when it was on sale with two lenses, was also a decent deal. I see the Panasonic GX9 is $799 with a 12-60 lens, which is great considering it is MFT so lens range doubles -- if a person wanted to attach a single lens, most of the time. The in-body stabilization + lens stabilization is a good feature. I have now have Nikon, Olympus and Panasonic, and have decided my future emphasis is going towards full-frame compact camera gear, and the Canon brand. The M50 cameras are compact, good for travel and street shooting, but I prefer the MFT cameras or going with the larger Canon, which has great controls. Getting to love the Fv mode the most on the Canon RP. -Loren
Your videos are arguably the best on UA-cam for the type of reviews you do. I love your passion, your presentation style, and your authenticity, a great combination. I'd love to get your quick bottom line suggestion between the SL3 and the M50 Mk 2. I'm ONLY using the camera for video work (vlogs and training type videos) and I recently bought the SL3 and I'm happy with it (except for the 4K cropping). I don't yet have buyers remorse (I can still return the camera) but a part of me keeps saying I should go with the M50 II for some reason. Would just love to have your thoughts on whether I should stick with the SL3 or switch it out. I appreciate your insights, keep up the great work!
Totally right. The initial release of the mk ii was a bit of a Debbie downer, but honestly it's a great little camera and doesn't need a ton of changing to be useful for a ton of people. I think the camera we all wanted it to be is a totally different camera, different price point, and different user. Maybe most of us just like rooting for the little guy though.
Hey, great videos but you probably need to update these videos as we know for a fact that Canon is phasing out the M series. The M6 MKII is already discontinued and obviously, we are not going to get any more EF-M lenses. I heard they might drag out the M50 MKII. I was torn between the M50 MII and M6 MKII, and thankfully decided to visit a Canon Store nearby. That's when I learnt about this. After a lot of research and considering my budget, I went with the Nikon Z50 because of the kit zoom lens. I know a lot of people complain about that lens, but I will upgrade when I reach that level. For now, I am extremely happy. ps: I am pasting this comment on a few more videos I watched so that it can help others too. Not attempting to spam or anything.
Thank you for this video. I have not seen your videos previously, but I enjoyed the concise presentation of the key differences / benefits. I will be checking out more of your content!
This was such a helpful video! Super concise! As a beginner video content creator, I really find value in your channel! Thank you for the hard work you do☺️
if you don't already own and M50 then just buy the M50 MKII, if you already own and M50 and your ready to step it up. I suggest just getting the EOS R, its cheaper now and if you get it used you can find it for about 1500-1600.
I don't recall you ever mentioning Canon's Camera Connect phone app in your M50 reviews. It's worked well for me, and I use it all the time. Also, the "Scenes" mode has useful and fun settings built in to the camera that really can help users get more professional looking results. 😎
I was wary if I should watch this video since I got the Canon M50 first version. Pre-pandemic I didn't really mind the non-clean HDMI out but when this pandemic happened and I wanted to stream with my Canon this made me wish that I should've gotten the MKII. The Canon M50 is still a great camera tho im looking forward to your video on the Viltrox lenses! And if its possible try to compare lense quality output with the Sigma lenses and the Viltrox! Great video!
Canon M50 Mk II is a great little camera but this deep into the year I'd wait for those Christmas sales. I'd love to see a M50 Mk II vs ZV-E10. So much hype around that camera. 🥂
What's up Sagi. Super informative comparison video. The M50 is our favourite camera and the new features of the mk2 improve on the original immensely. Take care, stay safe and healthy, both of you. Ray and Sue.
Not in Europe, it costs more than it used to. The Mark II is of course even more expensive. Canon's business practices really suck. Pushed at least this customer to Fuji.
Great channel. Canon could add most of this features through a firmware update for M50, specially clean HDMI. I doubt if there is any hardware change in M50 MK II compare to m50.
actually have the m6 mark 2 and i can see straight away the m50 have the same flaws. You cant mount it on a tripod and change the battery or get the memory card. If you use any lenses that is longer than the standard that comes with it you will have a black circle over half the picture. And i can assume when you are in a very low light situation and have the exposion simulation enabled it will lag until pretty much unusable (when trying to focus) The camera was pretty much made without being tested there is noway you would design a proper camera where you can change the battery/memorycard without remove the tripod mount. The feel of using the camera is also not very pleasang. It simply feels better using the old style DSLR cameras from canon (d80/d90) even if it is faster
Most enjoyable and informative video - thankyou. The Canon EOS M50 Mark II + EF-M 15-45 mm f/3.5-6.3 is - today - priced at £696.98 on Amazon UK. Cameras are expensive here. Used Canon MKIIs can be had for around £550.
I bought the m50 last year (mk.I). At first I really liked it, but not being able to monitor or adjust audio input level while recording has really become a dealbreaker for me. Also, canon’s lens lineup kind of bugs me. I don’t want to deal with a lot of adaptors for different lenses. I’m thinking Sony a6400 would suit me better. Great review, btw.
@@TechGearTalk Oh wow, that's a really nice feature. Though I am not sure why Canon didn't fix that on the mk.I with a software update. Anyway, thanks for letting me know, and keep up the great content.
Have you ever looked at the Rokinon (Samyang) 12mm f/2.0 - M? It's manual, but it's a fast lens with excellent image quality. It's light enough to work with my M-50 on a Crane M2. I use it all the time for architecture. At 12 mm, manual focusing is a non-issue. For general use, I just set the lens to infinity and go. For vlogging, you can just zone focus to 3 feet or use focus picking before you start recording. This method will also allow you to use 4K without focus problems.
I just discovered this channel, because I've been on the fence on a MacBook. I don't know why the hype is getting to me. I don't really need/use a laptop. But I do a lot of photography (so I'm excited to see how you review a camera), and a MacBook might be a worthy investment to do photo work on the go or on vacation. Because while a thousand dollar Macbook sounds expensive, a lot of the RF glass are 2grand per lens, so photography is already an expensive hobby, lol... -shrugs- Maybe I should branch off into video creation or something. I love my Canon R6 though. Great little hybrid camera. Alright, time to watch the video!
Hey Sagi, I always love your videos, you explain them with great detail and amazing cinematography. Question: I am not sure if you have a video on how you light your shots (specifically B-roll)? As they are super crisp and clean and they are just a pleasure to watch. Would love to know. Thanks.
Hello, I binged watched A LOT of your camera videos, and I love how they're so informative and easy to take in!! Your visuals are spectacular too! you're my favorite go-to UA-camr now when it comes to cameras and other equipment :) I'm a freshman at college, and my course is film. I'm really into this camera, and I've watched all your other canon and sony camera videos. Still, I keep coming back to this one. I want to know if you recommend this camera to a film student. My knowledge of camera settings is very basic; that's why I want to get a Canon because I've heard their user settings are very easy to understand. I'm not worried about 4k because even my professor told me that we won't be shooting 4k much (due to the circumstances now, I barely get to film at all). Hope to hear from you!
Thank you for being part of the channel. This is a good camera to learn on, as long as you don't need to film in LOG for school (if you do, they may provide you with test cameras/footage). I think it's a great camera to learn on.
That live stream to youtube feature is pretty cool! Not cool enough for me to justify buying the mk2, but if I might if I had the extra funds. As for the price difference, I bought mine refurbished from canon, and it also had another discount on top of being refurbished. Think I paid around $450 for it.
Hey, how is it going? Thanks for the video. Love your video and the way you explain and details everything. Said that, I'm sad to hear you saying that, 90% of the people doesn't subscribe to the channel. That's crazy and, it's not really comforting .
I love this video sid. The Canon M50 is my first real camera and I'm so looking forward to grow with it and this seems like a no-brainer to me..I can't wait to get good with this camera so I can venture into other projects with this camera..... Sid, thank you so much for all that you're doing for us newbies... I appreciate your hard work.. in also a UA-camr, check out the channel, so I know just how much work goes into a channel. God bless and I'll see you in the next one.. Mikey

Just bought it & I'm very happy with it so far.
I got one for the clean HDMI out. The autofocus is faster too imo
"If the shot is not in focus, it's un-usable."
Every vlogger ever: "Imma pretend I didn't hear that."
I think a headphone jack would've been a great physical addition to the M50 markii but that's just my opinion.
At least you can monitor audio with the external recorder or monitor, but of course that's more money.
@@TechGearTalk That is true.
Love seeing camera videos again !Great work, keep it up !!
Glad you like them! I will continue to sprinkle them.

No doubt about that. I'm evaluating the product as is, so from that perspective I'm not taking the delta into account.
Why not release it as an upgrade to Mk I owners for $20?
@@patrickfitzgerald2861 canon just screwed this launch, this is a bad product for the money to be honest.
@@patrickfitzgerald2861 y not ask canon?
Love your clear, detailed, and EASY to understand information!
You're truly an angel for making these kinda camera vids dude! 🥺❤️
Keep it going 🙌
That’s so kind of you to say 🙏🏻
Totally right. The initial release of the mk ii was a bit of a Debbie downer, but honestly it's a great little camera and doesn't need a ton of changing to be useful for a ton of people. I think the camera we all wanted it to be is a totally different camera, different price point, and different user. Maybe most of us just like rooting for the little guy though.
Very good perspective
I think that an important thing to note is that the mkII is priced much higher than the mki when your'e buying used, as it is harder to find it used
You just helped me pick my next camera!! Thanks so much. I was just watching your sl2 vs m50 video
Hey, great videos but you probably need to update these videos as we know for a fact that Canon is phasing out the M series. The M6 MKII is already discontinued and obviously, we are not going to get any more EF-M lenses. I heard they might drag out the M50 MKII. I was torn between the M50 MII and M6 MKII, and thankfully decided to visit a Canon Store nearby. That's when I learnt about this.
After a lot of research and considering my budget, I went with the Nikon Z50 because of the kit zoom lens. I know a lot of people complain about that lens, but I will upgrade when I reach that level. For now, I am extremely happy.
ps: I am pasting this comment on a few more videos I watched so that it can help others too. Not attempting to spam or anything.
Thank you for this video. I have not seen your videos previously, but I enjoyed the concise presentation of the key differences / benefits. I will be checking out more of your content!
Can't believe how long it takes to freaking get a clean hdmi out, been years in the making through other cameras too
This was such a helpful video! Super concise! As a beginner video content creator, I really find value in your channel! Thank you for the hard work you do☺️
if you don't already own and M50 then just buy the M50 MKII, if you already own and M50 and your ready to step it up. I suggest just getting the EOS R, its cheaper now and if you get it used you can find it for about 1500-1600.
Your videos are extremely helpful and well put together. Truly appreciate the time and effort you put into your content.
Really nice video. The information, pace, footage... 👍
I don't recall you ever mentioning Canon's Camera Connect phone app in your M50 reviews. It's worked well for me, and I use it all the time. Also, the "Scenes" mode has useful and fun settings built in to the camera that really can help users get more professional looking results. 😎
Dude, you're a life saver. You helped me out a lot. Thank you for helping me on making the right decision. SUBSCRIBED!
I was wary if I should watch this video since I got the Canon M50 first version. Pre-pandemic I didn't really mind the non-clean HDMI out but when this pandemic happened and I wanted to stream with my Canon this made me wish that I should've gotten the MKII. The Canon M50 is still a great camera tho im looking forward to your video on the Viltrox lenses! And if its possible try to compare lense quality output with the Sigma lenses and the Viltrox! Great video!
On the Canon store in Canada there is a price difference of & 120! That's with both camera's being on sale.
In the Netherlands the M50 + 15-45mm kit lens the mk1 sells for € 599, the mk2 for € 749, a hefty € 150 ($ 180) more.
Appreciate you sharing! That's a huge difference 😱
Canon M50 Mk II is a great little camera but this deep into the year I'd wait for those Christmas sales. I'd love to see a M50 Mk II vs ZV-E10. So much hype around that camera. 🥂
What's up Sagi. Super informative comparison video. The M50 is our favourite camera and the new features of the mk2 improve on the original immensely. Take care, stay safe and healthy, both of you. Ray and Sue.
The best thing about the M50 mkii is that the original M50 is now cheaper :P
Not in Europe, it costs more than it used to. The Mark II is of course even more expensive.
Canon's business practices really suck. Pushed at least this customer to Fuji.
@@Lurreable I'm in South Africa... Price drops don't exist. 😭
Great channel. Canon could add most of this features through a firmware update for M50, specially clean HDMI. I doubt if there is any hardware change in M50 MK II compare to m50.
actually have the m6 mark 2 and i can see straight away the m50 have the same flaws.
You cant mount it on a tripod and change the battery or get the memory card. If you use any lenses that is longer than the standard that comes with it you will have a black circle over half the picture.
And i can assume when you are in a very low light situation and have the exposion simulation enabled it will lag until pretty much unusable (when trying to focus)
The camera was pretty much made without being tested there is noway you would design a proper camera where you can change the battery/memorycard without remove the tripod mount.
The feel of using the camera is also not very pleasang. It simply feels better using the old style DSLR cameras from canon (d80/d90) even if it is faster
I always watched your videos and then decided to subscribe your channel for more latest informative videos
Most enjoyable and informative video - thankyou. The Canon EOS M50 Mark II + EF-M 15-45 mm f/3.5-6.3 is - today - priced at £696.98 on Amazon UK. Cameras are expensive here. Used Canon MKIIs can be had for around £550.
Does it have the product focus like the sony one? Thanks for the great video as always
It does not have product focus like the Z-V1 - good question!
@@TechGearTalk so which one we should buy ?Please advise
You just got new subscriber. I know it's nothing but mahn, I love your video, you explain this camera better as I'm looking to get one someday.
So glad the video was helpful. It’s definitely not “nothing”. I’m super grateful that you chose to be part of the community 🙏🏻
Ngl I subbed just because of your intro in another m50 video. Love the reviews though I can't wait to get one of these cams for myself
I appreciate the feedback and support.
You have a great delivery 👍Thanks for the info😊
Thanks so much Stephanie - appreciate the kind words!
I have the Canon M50. Just my luck they come out with a newer version after I bought mine.
Buyer Beware!
Great video! Always great content!
I bought the m50 last year (mk.I). At first I really liked it, but not being able to monitor or adjust audio input level while recording has really become a dealbreaker for me. Also, canon’s lens lineup kind of bugs me. I don’t want to deal with a lot of adaptors for different lenses. I’m thinking Sony a6400 would suit me better. Great review, btw.
Some good points - they are mentioned in tomorrow’s video 👍🏻
I WAS WORNG - you can actually monitor the audio right on the M50 MK II by hitting the INFO button and switching views!
@@TechGearTalk Oh wow, that's a really nice feature. Though I am not sure why Canon didn't fix that on the mk.I with a software update. Anyway, thanks for letting me know, and keep up the great content.
Thank you for this review video of the M50 Mark II as I am a huge fan of the M50 Mark II camera. I posted this video on my FaceBook page.
Have you ever looked at the Rokinon (Samyang) 12mm f/2.0 - M? It's manual, but it's a fast lens with excellent image quality. It's light enough to work with my M-50 on a Crane M2. I use it all the time for architecture. At 12 mm, manual focusing is a non-issue. For general use, I just set the lens to infinity and go. For vlogging, you can just zone focus to 3 feet or use focus picking before you start recording. This method will also allow you to use 4K without focus problems.
New subscriber. Buying on your recommendation. I.enjoy your videos. Very informative. Thank you
Very clear and informative video. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 👏
I just upgraded from g7x mkII to this.. these cameras aren't entry level.. they're a bit above that.. entry level would be priced about half of these
Hi I am from India.. Ur videos are awesome and clear explanation👍.. Is sony zv2 is available.. Review that camera..
I just discovered this channel, because I've been on the fence on a MacBook.
I don't know why the hype is getting to me. I don't really need/use a laptop. But I do a lot of photography (so I'm excited to see how you review a camera), and a MacBook might be a worthy investment to do photo work on the go or on vacation. Because while a thousand dollar Macbook sounds expensive, a lot of the RF glass are 2grand per lens, so photography is already an expensive hobby, lol...
-shrugs- Maybe I should branch off into video creation or something. I love my Canon R6 though. Great little hybrid camera. Alright, time to watch the video!
Appreciate you being part of the channel. Yeah, those RF lenses are $$$ and the r6 is an outstanding camera.
Excellent video, as always. 🙂
Hey Sagi, I always love your videos, you explain them with great detail and amazing cinematography. Question: I am not sure if you have a video on how you light your shots (specifically B-roll)? As they are super crisp and clean and they are just a pleasure to watch. Would love to know. Thanks.
Great video. Really helpful. We are currently trying to decide what camera to upgrade to, so this really helped us out!
Over and over and over again 🤩
👍🏻
Hello, I binged watched A LOT of your camera videos, and I love how they're so informative and easy to take in!! Your visuals are spectacular too! you're my favorite go-to UA-camr now when it comes to cameras and other equipment :)
I'm a freshman at college, and my course is film. I'm really into this camera, and I've watched all your other canon and sony camera videos. Still, I keep coming back to this one. I want to know if you recommend this camera to a film student. My knowledge of camera settings is very basic; that's why I want to get a Canon because I've heard their user settings are very easy to understand. I'm not worried about 4k because even my professor told me that we won't be shooting 4k much (due to the circumstances now, I barely get to film at all).
Hope to hear from you!
Thank you for being part of the channel. This is a good camera to learn on, as long as you don't need to film in LOG for school (if you do, they may provide you with test cameras/footage).
I think it's a great camera to learn on.
@@TechGearTalk Thank you for your reply! I might be buying it soon :) can't wait to watch more of your videos, hope you have a good week!
That live stream to youtube feature is pretty cool! Not cool enough for me to justify buying the mk2, but if I might if I had the extra funds.
As for the price difference, I bought mine refurbished from canon, and it also had another discount on top of being refurbished. Think I paid around $450 for it.
M50 is Great for Vloger but for Photography i will pick Fullframe RP. .. crop Sensor is not enough for me.. .i want to step to the next level .
Excellent video bro✌🏻
Great video! I'm getting one and calling on you for lessons!
I so looking forward to get a M50 MK ii now
Hey, how is it going? Thanks for the video.
Love your video and the way you explain and details everything. Said that, I'm sad to hear you saying that, 90% of the people doesn't subscribe to the channel. That's crazy and, it's not really comforting .
I love this video sid. The Canon M50 is my first real camera and I'm so looking forward to grow with it and this seems like a no-brainer to me..I can't wait to get good with this camera so I can venture into other projects with this camera..... Sid, thank you so much for all that you're doing for us newbies... I appreciate your hard work.. in also a UA-camr, check out the channel, so I know just how much work goes into a channel. God bless and I'll see you in the next one..
Mikey
I'm so glad I've been able to help - love seeing you create with the M50! I'll check out the channel for sure. (Sagi)
Hey Ross, great review. Thank you.
WE WERE ON A BREAK!!! 🤣😂 Thanks for watching.
Thank you, it is a very interesting review, as usual you are very consistent !!! I never get bored from your video but still I am team Sony A7iii 😁
Thanks so much Mohamed! The a7iii is an outstanding camera!
Love your video in my area the m50 mark ii is $699.99
Thank you so much for your vids, I got M50 and I found everything I needed on your channel, and BIG THANKS for explaining everything
So glad I could help! CONGRATS!!!
I live in Bulgaria and price difference is almost 120$ between the two cameras so I ordered M50 because I plan to take photos not making videos. :)
