    What's up everyone?! I’m super interested in knowing what you think - is the Canon M50 still a good option in 2020? What are some other reasons why it’s good, and maybe even some reasons why you don’t think it’s good.
    Did you like the video? Was there too much detail? Not enough? What did you like, and also, what did you not like? What would you like to see more of? Would love to know what you think, good or bad. I am grateful in advance 🙏

      I liked the viddy Bro..I'm totally new to this camera , haven't even turned it on for the first time yet..I wasn't happy with a lot of my video from last years Adventure For a Cure, so I decided to upgrade some equipment..After watching review videos , the M50 is where I landed..Hopefully I can learn enough about video with the M50 in the next month and a half to get quality footage for this years trip..If there's any chance you could do an in depth tutorial on Video with the M5O , I could use it for sure..Again , I'm a total beginner with this Camera and once I reach the Camp spot , there will be no internet to watch any more tutorials..Thanks in Advance , and again good video..

    Great Video! As Always. I have the M50. I got it last month with 15-45mm for $325. I have since added the Canon EF-M 18-150, incredibly small and lightweight ($350), Canon 32 f1.4 ($300) and Canon 22mm f2 ($100). Reviewers are always complaining about the lack of lenses and that Canon stopped producing them. But there are many good and reasonable priced lenses.
    available. Got my equipment pre-owned from eBay, OfferUp and Marketplace. All Mint / Excellent. So I don’t see any long telephoto over 200mm (360mm). I think Canon was supposed to release a 100-300mm (160-480). But apparently didn’t. You can use Canon EF lenses with available adapter.
    Current Canon EF-M lenses. Multiple mm x 1.6 for 35mm equivalent. E.g. EF-M 32mm = 51mm.

    Things i wished i learned sooner with this camera:
    Aperture priority is your friend
    IS on kit is quite good so don't be afraid to let that shutter speed drop in handheld
    Limit ISO to 6400 in photo mode.
    Bind the trascan button to switch between screen and EVF, that way you won't go crazy due to accidentally changing settings with your nose
    Bind the flash button to whatever you use most, flash goes off only when it's up anyway.
    Buy a second battery ASAP, eco mode ain't that bad and it helps
    cRAW is 95% the detail but 50% of the size of RAW and can handle +-2 stops in post before you see any difference. Use it plenty
    Good luck shooting !

    After a long self debate of whether to upgrade to an intermediate dslr or to go mirrorless; drooling over the Eos R but not being able to afford it, I finally gave into the M50. I'm EXTREMELY pleased with it. However, since im used to many physical buttons, the transition to everything being within the menu and on screen took a little while to get used to, but what REALLY made me pick up this little Gem is its size, its awesome vlog capabilites as well as being able to use 3 of the 4 different types of Canon lenses with an adapter. Also when I found out it was able to be used with a speed booster and turn into a full frame camera I HAD to get it. Its literally an all in one and you can NOT go wrong with this camera.

    I went into my local store to have a first hold and trial of the m50. Its not until you pick one up that you realise the size difference. They also has the Sony a6400. I tried both cameras and to be honest after messing around for 5mins with the a6400 I put it down...the menu is seems complicated and lots of going back and forth in the settings. I went back to the m50 and straight didn't feel overwhelmed with the menu and felt more comfortable in my hand. I think the hands on experience has pretty much swayed my purchase choice.

    I really appreciate what are you doing. English is my second language so it is really important to me that you speak nice and clear. The other very important thing is that everything is explained nicely and in simple language so beginner can understand. Unlike many other guys on your channel there is no mumbo jumbo you go straight to the point and explain nicely. Only thing I am sorry is that I just bought M50 so I wont be able to buy using your links but I will be buying accessories so hopefully your links work in Canada. Thank you so kindly for everything you do. All the best to you and your family.

    You've done a great service for beginning photographers with your tutorials. And not just the first-timers. I have a full-frame Canon 6D and you helped me see how the M50 would expand what I can do, at a price much lower than if I had tried to duplicate the M50's functions by buying a new full-frame body. It has been tremendously helpful to be able to shoot wonderful video with awe-inspiring autofocus, and to be able to acquire an extremely useful ultrawide lens, the 10-18, that didn't cost an arm and a leg. I would recommend that every full-frame shooter get the M50. Plus it is FUN.

      You won’t regret it. It was thanks to this channel that I bought mine a few months ago after researching for a month. Even with the M6 II recent release I still think the M50 is better value especially since I don’t need to record in 4K. It’s been amazing for photos, webinars, video and even taking portraits tethered direct to the laptop. Battery life is a bit weak so I recommend at least a second battery and even better also get a DC coupler to connect to external USB power.

    I believe this is only the 2nd YT channel that I clicked both 'like' and 'subscribe.' This is the best and most informative video regarding the Canon M50, and even more important to me is your kind and humble disposition. There are lots of good / informative channels, but sadly they are often condescending, arrogant, and full of hyperbole. For my case, I am a total noob who will be finally starting a new YT channel of my own and am so happy after sifting through so much 'bull' to find this review! The quarantine has finally driven me crazy enough and motivated me to get over my fear of failure and just get moving. In light of the fact that performing my music live at a club or venue will not happen anytime soon, I will basically be posting prerecorded or live performances (mostly pre-recorded at first:) of my music in my little studio. Your posting has sold me on the M50 and I will also be searching for a sturdy tri-pod, possibly a wide-angel lens, and some basic stage lighting. Thank you kindly and I look forward to more insightful tips and videos from you! (also, how do you spell your name? I heard you say it in the start of the video) - Kind regards

    A lot to agree with in terms of it still being a good device and not buying features you won't use. But focus should be on what you want to do with it. If you want vlogging then a flip up screen is more important than being able to waste a hotshoe on a mic. Flip out side screens make for a weird eye-line.

    Just got the M50 as I prepare to relaunch my tech channel. Also picked up the Sigma 16mm. It more than good enough for what I need. I was shooting on an iPhone X or XS, or a Nikon D7000 (which is not great for video). I just want a little more ease of use and depth of field in shot, but at the end of the day, content or story is king and that come down to the user. I’d be more likely to buy another M50 for a top down rig than upgrade to something better. I’ll also be using for recording my live music gigs which should be good with the tracking function.

    After listening to your experience with canon m50, i just booked one right now.. Cant wait to get it may be in 2days time.. I own canon 700d, i made most of my video songs using 700d, but i am fed up and definately need a mirrorless camera for better auto focus when i am moving with my zhiyun crane2..good thing is focus wheel on crane can be operated in m50..thats lovely ❤❤
    Thanks for your videos.. They are really helpful.. Will be watching the remaing videos also now.. God bless bro.. Love from Gideon Katta (india )

    thank you for all your help!, I bought to m50 in may, and got a few lenses, I look at the m50 as a modular device, great body for the price, but if you invest. in a few things, you can actually produce great professional looking work, I've been able to use it for multiple jobs as a start photographer and basic videography, now that I have a ronin sc im so eager to use it!

      You are so welcome and I'm so proud of you for getting and producing professional work with the M50. I completely agree with your perspective and can't wait to hear about your experience with the SC!
