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 🙏
You are the undisputed M50 MacDaddy on you tube. Nobody comes close. And it’s not even the camera, it’s the way you explain things. Simple yet explanatory and informative. Big fan
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..
@@recenttime923 I've the kit lense and a few months ago I put purchased the Canon EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 STM Lens, which is brilliant for vlogging as it gives a nice wide view. You can start with the kit lens and then upgrade to the $399 11-22mm lend for those wide angle shots
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 !
Made me feel so much better about my purchase. I bought the m6 mark ii I returned it because of the screen not flipping out. I didn’t like how I only flipped up. The m50 has been great and I am using it for video live streaming. Thank you for these great videos
I use 4 of these cameras on my UA-cam channel, as well as a C100 MK1 and a couple older t4i cams. I just wanted to thank you for making these videos because I always seem to learn something about the m50 I didn't already know. For example, you mentioned remote controlling the cameras with the app. I hadn't thought of that, but I need it! Thanks man! These videos are great for picking up tips.
I just have to say that I really like the way that you ask people to like and subscribe. It’s so gentle and inviting. I am so tired of UA-camrs yelling at me to “SMASH THE LIKE BUTTON AND SUBSCRIBE...”. I like how you just gently slip it in while you’re in the middle of sharing very interesting information. I would give you 1000 likes if I could
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. EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM. EF-M 22mm f/2 STM. ... EF-M 28mm f/3.5 Macro IS STM. ... EF-M 32mm f/1.4 STM. ... EF-M 15-45mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM. ... EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM. .. EF-M 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM. Sigma 16mm f1.4 30mm f1.4 56mm f1.4 Tamron 18-200 f3.5-6.3 Viltrox 23mm f1.4 33mm f1.4 56mm f1.4
This was the best review I've seen so far! I'm looking at buying this camera in the next couple of weeks and this pretty much sealed the deal for me! Subscribed as well :)
Got my M50 back in May for $499 with the kit lens and warranty direct from Canon's refurb site. One of my best purchases. I've since added a Viltrox speedbooster and some EF lenses, some filters, a SmallRig cage and a bunch of accessories. Love this little camera! Having fun with it and making money.
Ive wanted the M50 since it came out. Now I own for a month now and love it. Thanks to your precise and informative videos Ive been able to adjust to this camera well. Thanks a million for your time and effort to shows us newbies the ins and outs.
So I bought this camera from B&H in August as part of a kit with the Rode VidMic. For Christmas I got a DC adapter and I love that you do not have to leave the battery compartment open for this, like you do with other cameras.
Nearly 2 years since I got my M50 and it feels like the BEST entry-level camera I could have asked for. Very newbie friendly and helped me dip my feet in vlogging for the first time. Thanks for all of your videos surrounding this awesome camera; it's helped me begin to really experiment and unleash more of its potential, even over a year after I got it 👍
M50 so ahead of its time without doubt it’s because of your review some time ago I got an M50 for video to help me built up a UA-cam channel never looked back but is a fantastic camera for photography too the auto focus system is fantastic a system I totally trust and has never let me down. Looked forward to the M50 mark II later this year.
@@syeuram I love it! It’s been good. I’ve already done a few shoots. It’s been super easy to learn on. If I had the money I would have gotten just the body and a better lens. I can’t seem to get super crisp shots with it. But all that is fixed with learning and a new lens!
@@herculeskouts1189 it’s my first personal camera, however I’ve been using my moms two for years! This camera takes very decent photos with the kit lens it comes with, but I wish I got the body and got a canon 24-70mm f/2.8 lens (L series is a dream, I just don’t have that kind of money lol).
Videos like this make the M50 gang happy about our investment! All these new cameras coming out cost thousands and my lil 393$ refurbed M50 is still amazing! Great video 👍🏼
I am currently using the m50 as my main camera. The price and the ability to buy it as a vlogger kit were the main selling points for me. However as a complete newbie, your videos really helped me understand the camera and discover its features. I know have a UA-cam Channel and I throughly enjoy making new videos every week. Learned (and still learning) a lot from you so I really wanted to thank you for that :) You have a solid subscriber right here!
I like how you respond to all of your comments - we end up learning even more from them, and it makes your content even more engaging. Your top notch for taking the time, earns my sub, +1👍
im a beginning photographer and i want to really take images and video of nature and wildlife because i keep seeing all these beautiful images of nature and i just keep saying to myself "i wish i was there". i go hiking, biking, fishing, and hunting, and i just love nature all over, even in the rain and snow. i really wanna use this camera as a tool to learn and adapt my love for beauty in the natural world, and of all the good things i hear about it, i just keep saying that i want it. i just started my job over at the zoo and after my training i can already tell that i will love my job. car is more important first but camera is totally going to be next!
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.
Thank you for the kind words! Good question! I have one for the SL2 which will give you a TON of info, but I will make one for the M50: ua-cam.com/video/tTJWelIZlkI/v-deo.html
I’ve been watching a lot of videos on a lot of cameras. This helped me decide on the m50. Now I have to watch your other vids on using it. Had to subscribe. Excellent video.
Thought I had my mind made up for the SL2 untill this video... the electronic view finder did it for me. I watched so many videos and this video taught me the most on the m50
Hi! I love the M50 and your reviews are amazing. Thank you so much! I have owned it for more than a year now but I need to learn a lot more how to use all its features. I learn lots from you. Thank you again!
I searched around for a good camera to enter into video making and real estate photography, ended up finding the M50 with a great black Friday bundle that included a Rode audio mic. Seems like I nailed it! Thank goodness.
I just got my M50 a few days ago with the 55-200 and Sigma 3mm f1. 4. Thank you so much for all the content on this camera. I filmed my first music video with it last night with my son and the footage looks awesome. I used all your cinematic settings too. I'll share it here when I'm done. Thanks again. Love this camera!
I am so proud of you and am so glad the footage came out great!!! CONGRATS on the new gear and keep creating! You can also tag me on some content in IG and I'll check it out!
@@joexdeleted3892 hi Joe, yes we completed the video and I've made several more since I bought the M50. I mainly use the sigma 56mm for most of the closeups. You can see all of my music videos here. AndreGuitar dot com under the music video production menu. Enjoy.
Just got my m50..started watching the wrong videos where people compare it to better camera's and it started to freak me out thinking I have made a mistake...your videos give me comfort in that i haven't. Have the 2 kit lenses..but really need the sigma 16mm 1.4f. Then I'll be set...thanks for your videos on this beauty
For someone like me who can’t afford cameras like the R5, you’ve really help me appreciate everything the M50 has to offer! Ps. Doing my part to get you to 100K subs, keep it up!
I am an absolute beginner UA-camr and never used a "real" camera before and I really appreciate what you have taught me and the detail you go into that I can understand. THANK YOU! I went through your tutorial several times and set my camera to manual the very first time I used it! I think it worked (at least to my untrained eye)...LOL
I still love my M50 and 22mm lens combo for pretty much everything but vlogging. Random question...what video editing software are you currently using? Love your vids! ♥
Been using my m50 as my main camera in my real estate photo company. All i use is the kit lens also....15mm-45mm Everyone told me it wouldnt cut it, its not full frame anf what not. Works perfectly only wish it could do a 5 shot hdr vs 3 but it works well.
Bruh. Keep them videos coming. Love my M50. And I like that u are still making content on this camera. Dope camera and can't wait to learn more. 👊🏾 Preciate the video
Absolutely agreed! Especially for someone like me who just bought my first ever interchangeable camera, a lot to learn. Especially what shutter speed aperture and iOS to take the best photos. Oh and night photography too! What led lights to use etc.
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. :)
omg this is exactly what I was looking for! I especially loved that you had a specific, beginner audience in mind without being condescending! I just started my UA-cam channel and am looking for a decent camera. This is it! Thank you SO MUCH for this video!
In Serbia, the Canon M50 with a 15-45mm kit costs, currently at a discount, 480 euros. I bought it almost and I am very satisfied. The official importer is the Josipovic store, which gives a 4-year warranty. (Otherwise it costs 520 in Josipovic, while other stores charge much more)
I bought the M50 for my daughter for her HS photography/videography class and she loves it. She even named the camera. It has a lot of capabilities in a small portable form factor. A video on the lens speed boost would be nice, please.
Hi it’s me again, can u do a video on the best video editing software and editing tips on any laptop? And how do I go about uploading the videos on my m50 to the laptop?
Tech Gear Talk thanks you’re awesome! That’s why I subscribe to your videos to learn more about my new m50 on how to take good photos on the kit lenses that came with it, but I am investing to buy my next lense which I’m looking at the 22mm or the 11-22mm. Which do you think?
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 just picked up a lightly used D700 in 2020...sometimes it's fun and simple to use the older gear. It's easy to get caught up with GAS and then you have so much stuff and so many advanced features you can't quite decide on what you want to do with it all.
Bought my M50, in large part, by watching your video evaluation. Have NO regrets! I'm not a pro (nor want to be) but, my M50 has made me my family's photo historian and portrait photographer. Thank you!!
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.
I have much more expensive Canon cameras but this is the one that I use most because it does, pretty much, everything I want and is so easy to use. Love your videos.
My m50 just arrived yesterday - This video has confirmed that I’ve made a good choice - You’re production and content is top draw and I’m looking forward to receiving and viewing future content - Thanks and keep up the Great Work!
I knew nothing about using cameras and wanted to get into it and I just bought the M50 a month ago. No regrets so far and your videos have allowed me to maximize its use
Have used my M50 primarily for video. Learnt so much. Get a lens adapter and a Rode wireless mic and you can do most things. My wife won an elevator Pitch competition for her business and won £1000. The footage was easily the best looking even if I do say so myself!!!
Bought it 3 weeks back with kit lens. Bundle comes with EF mount and 16gb card here in India..pretty decent combo. I always loved the combination as I Used it earlier in 2018 for a trip as I borrowed from friend. Now exploring this more. Only 2 negative points are battery backup and single card. Rest is rocking 🔥🙏
Hi I have a question please about Canon M50 I am trying to connect the camera to the laptop without cabil (Micro HDMI cable) so that I can see live output on my laptop.. via (WIFI) or any connection method that broadcasts the video live to big screen wireless Would you help me please ? thx
I’ve been thinking about getting a real camera for a couple of years now, occasionally looking at reviews but I think I’m sold on the M50, especially after this video. I learned to shoot in college 20 years ago on my dad’s old Canon AE-1 and this reminds me of the digital version of that. Can’t wait to get one!
I own the M50 and the M6 Mark ii, both are great cameras. I use my M6 Mark ii for bird and wildlife photography and the M50 for stills. I’m so glad you encourage people to check out the M50 they won’t be disappointed! Another excellent video bravo!
I really liked your review and able to probably buy this camera or do you think I should get the M50 Mark II? What do I need to be able to capture Macro Shots? What lenses did you use? Thank you for putting this video. I have watch a ton today and this made my decision. Thank you.
Great review. I own canon m50 for 6 months and i love it. I use it for photography and it never disappointed me, even for astrophotography and night photography it's very good.
I haven’t heard any concrete rumors about the mk2. If the m50 does what you want, get it. If you think you need more - maybe wait. Or buy it and then sell it when the mk2 comes.
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 )
it's worth buying in 2021 too. Just got it brand new with kit lense for $430. If you want to make nice photos and if 1080p 24p is good enough for you, it's a steal!
I’m very confused and can’t decide between 250d and m50. First priority is making UA-cam videos about my robotics projects inside home and taking photos of my family. Which one do you prefer? Thank you
I almost sold this camera bought second hand .. I noticed when I looked through the viewfinder and it was blurry (my vision is bad up close) and could not find the diopter adjustment until looking more closely I found it underneath the eyecup it's a slider and you have to flip the screen to access it , now I love this little camera !!!
So glad it was helpful! Thanks for being part of the channel! Check out part 1 and 2 if you're going to do video: Part 1: ua-cam.com/video/Hj_QrxcsXYg/v-deo.html Part 2: ua-cam.com/video/jsmaRS0cyYQ/v-deo.html Complete lens video: ua-cam.com/video/2J4C_RDEg5Y/v-deo.html Detailed Sigma lens options: ua-cam.com/video/uORT1dfeS0M/v-deo.html Hope this helps
Can’t go wrong with the M50. I’m a pro Photog and sometimes I just don’t to carry my larger cams with me. This the perfect camera for that. But you really aren’t sacrificing anything. It’s really an amazing and very capable camera.
I purchased the M50 before I found your channel but you've helped to solidify my choice for sure. Love your content! If you wait around for a sale you can get the M50 for $499 at your local big box store with the kit lens. In the end I'm still invested for close to $1k into the M50 after the sigma 16mm lens, tripod, filter, and mic...but that's much less than other platforms and I'm very impressed with the quality of the content I'm getting as I learn my new equipment.
As an m50 owner for about a year now, I really appreciate your reviews on this camera! I've been wanting to purchase another camera just so I could have the full frame. But this video has made up my mind to hold onto my m50 for a while! Thank you
@@parzemis7145 I love it. Navigation and touchscreen is easy. The only thing I don't like is when using EF lenses with the adapter, its not full frame unless you pay extra for the speed booster. But even then I watched a review on how images lose sharpness/quality with the booster adapter.
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 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
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such kind feedback, Tony. I'm glad the channel is being helpful. Good job thinking of lighting from the start! A good wide angle lens is the Sigma 16mm if it's in your budget, or the 22mm if you don't need as much widths and budget is more of a concern ua-cam.com/video/WTE0XfZhqj4/v-deo.html Hope that helps - Sagi.
I love my M50 - it's a great camera. Your videos helped me decide on this camera and this video confirms that I made a good choice. Thanks for all the great content you produce Sagi! Best, John
PLEASE I need your help! I've been watching all your videos with all your impressive and useful advices. Here is the thing: I own a Nikon D5100 I bought in 2012 it came with the kit lense 18-55mm, later bought a very cheap wide angle-macro lense, but I'm planning to update my photography equipment and I don't have the best budget in the world (lets see aonly around $1000 USD) so here are my doubts: 1- Should I keep my Nikon D5100 and get a better lense, a "all in one" lense that can help me shoot much better macro and landscape photos? Maybe a Sigma or Tamron 18-200mmwith Autofocus and Automatic Stabilization? 2- Should I better buy this Canon M50 or the Sony A6100 to 6400 with their kit lense 18-140mm, or only bodies and buy a decent "all in one" separate lense? This is what I want now: a "light weight" camera without taking with me tons of accesories, the Nikon is a bit heavy for me. That is why I am between the M50 and the Sony A6000 series. A camera with great colorimetry, great ISO, great shutter speed and aperture. I love the actual LCD have my Nikon D5100 and is very similar on the M50, and the M50 is a touch screen so its awesome! I'm not planning to use it for recording videos at all, only to photos. So I am not sure! my Nikon D5100 is "good", but sometimes I feel "outdated", sometimes I think is time to level up my photography, and I should get a better one, but I am not sure between the Canon M50 or the Sony A6100 to 6400 series that are on my budget. I checked like 2 times the comparison video you shared with the M50 and the A6100. Btw. The kind of photography I like is: Landscape, macros, would LOVE to take photos of wild animals and stars but most of the times is complicated with my actual camera, Thank youuuu! My IG is @angelicayunuhen in case you want to see the type of photography I have. Thank youuuu!
OMG! I bought the M50 because of you! I was getting frustrated a little, once I watched your video on how to set it up, it was piece of cake, thank you for your help! You’re awesome!
, I stayed up all night watching your videos because I'm so excited to get my m50 today. You honestly did nothing but increase my excitement 10 fold. I love ur vids man, I'd love to see one on m50 accessories too
I'm so excited for you to get your new camera!!! Did you see this rig video? ua-cam.com/video/KESjvc4z4nA/v-deo.html I'll be adding more M50 accessories videos!
I bought it a few months ago... for a really really good price in my country (399.990 CLP [Chilean Peso] or 500 USD, body + kit lens ) and I do not have a single regret. It's an awesome little camera, perfect for me: a beginner who wants to learn about the beautiful world of photography. Thank you for all of your videos, I have learned a lot. (Love the bloopers!!! :D )
I'm still figuring my M50 out and I always appreciate any of the videos that will make me understand it better. Thanks! I really really really love the bloopers! LOL
Growing up, I always wanted to have my own camera. Usually, I borrow camera to my friends to practice my photography skills. When I got enough money, this will be my first choice in buying a camera. Thank you for this very informative video. - supporting all the way from Philippines!
Please add the Arabic language. There are some of your followers from the Middle East and he added to me, so everything in your channel is great. Thank you man for everything you presented to us.
I’m deciding between the SL3 and the M50. This was very helpful in so many ways - especially the audio and lenses sections. Probably most important was the recommendation to look at investing in the other components versus spending more money on the body.
Great upload. I’ve been searching UA-cam for reviews of cameras for mainly my UA-cam channel. The options are vast! I think the M50 is my way forward. Thanks again, James.
I use several brands including Canon M cameras - whilst I fully understand the benefits of FF, the size and weight makes me want to stick to APS-C once I'm on the beach playing football with my dog. I look forward to updating my eos m6 to a m50 Mk2 or M6 Mk3 with animal tracking !!
Thank you for sharing Michael. I have FF, aps-c and cinema cameras and use the aps-c the most - for exactly the reason you mentioned. Thank you for contributing to the channel!

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 🙏
Any give away camera ?😭😭😭😭tired of phone photography
I REALLY hope to be able to do that at some point.
You are the undisputed M50 MacDaddy on you tube. Nobody comes close. And it’s not even the camera, it’s the way you explain things. Simple yet explanatory and informative. Big fan

As always your videos are helpful for people like me who has the M50 :)
As a travel vlogger, I love my Canon M50. Small, light and absolutely btilliant
Thanks for sharing!
The best when travelling
which lense is perfect for travel blogging
@@recenttime923 I would say the 15 to 45 kit lense. It's wide enough to film yourself and the zoom is good for everything else.
@@recenttime923 I've the kit lense and a few months ago I put purchased the Canon EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 STM Lens, which is brilliant for vlogging as it gives a nice wide view. You can start with the kit lens and then upgrade to the $399 11-22mm lend for those wide angle shots
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 !
Thank you for contributing!
Will this video for videos ?
Thank you! I plan on taking these to heart when I get mine
Made me feel so much better about my purchase. I bought the m6 mark ii I returned it because of the screen not flipping out. I didn’t like how I only flipped up. The m50 has been great and I am using it for video live streaming. Thank you for these great videos
I'm so glad the M50 is working for you Jason!!! (and that I can help you feel better)
Tech Gear Talk now if I could buy some lighting I would be all set. Equipment is so challenging to get seems like everything is sold out.
I use 4 of these cameras on my UA-cam channel, as well as a C100 MK1 and a couple older t4i cams. I just wanted to thank you for making these videos because I always seem to learn something about the m50 I didn't already know. For example, you mentioned remote controlling the cameras with the app. I hadn't thought of that, but I need it! Thanks man! These videos are great for picking up tips.
Appreciate you sharing your setup with the community Keith! Glad the video was helpful. Thank you for being part of the channel.
I was looking for a camera to shoot guitar cover and here is Keith Merrow the man himself talking about his gear. Jackpot!
Just bought the m50 and it's getting delivered today! Thank you for helping me justify the purchase, I needed this
CONGRATS Boris!!! So excited for you. Glad I've been able to help.
@@TechGearTalk you really have, thanks for the great info!
@@BorisThePA how you likeing the m50? Torn between SL2 and m50
@@TailoredTechnique so far it's excellent for video and photos, but I've only really used auto for both
@@BorisThePA oh god😆
I just have to say that I really like the way that you ask people to like and subscribe. It’s so gentle and inviting. I am so tired of UA-camrs yelling at me to “SMASH THE LIKE BUTTON AND SUBSCRIBE...”. I like how you just gently slip it in while you’re in the middle of sharing very interesting information. I would give you 1000 likes if I could
i love my canon M50 and watching this makes me love it even more thanks to you.
So glad to hear that you love it - glad I can help!

Is it grainy? What lens do u recommend for new vlogger
@@ashleytaylor994 kit lens 15-45mm is fine but when i tried Sigma 16mm f/1.4 omg! you will love it! super sharp, love the bokeh effect.
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.

This was the best review I've seen so far! I'm looking at buying this camera in the next couple of weeks and this pretty much sealed the deal for me! Subscribed as well :)
Thank you so much for the kind words - Glad I could help. Welcome to the channel!
Did you go with the m50?
mark ii
so did you buy it?
@Morrigan - ditto, this vid is great! Did you end up getting the M50 and if so what accessories?
Got my M50 back in May for $499 with the kit lens and warranty direct from Canon's refurb site. One of my best purchases. I've since added a Viltrox speedbooster and some EF lenses, some filters, a SmallRig cage and a bunch of accessories. Love this little camera! Having fun with it and making money.
Ive wanted the M50 since it came out. Now I own for a month now and love it. Thanks to your precise and informative videos Ive been able to adjust to this camera well. Thanks a million for your time and effort to shows us newbies the ins and outs.
CONGRATS I'm so glad I've been able to help you get to know it better and create better content!
So I bought this camera from B&H in August as part of a kit with the Rode VidMic. For Christmas I got a DC adapter and I love that you do not have to leave the battery compartment open for this, like you do with other cameras.
Nearly 2 years since I got my M50 and it feels like the BEST entry-level camera I could have asked for. Very newbie friendly and helped me dip my feet in vlogging for the first time. Thanks for all of your videos surrounding this awesome camera; it's helped me begin to really experiment and unleash more of its potential, even over a year after I got it 👍
I'm so glad that it's working out well for you and grateful that you're sharing this with the community! Thank you for being a part of it!
M50 so ahead of its time without doubt it’s because of your review some time ago I got an M50 for video to help me built up a UA-cam channel never looked back but is a fantastic camera for photography too the auto focus system is fantastic a system I totally trust and has never let me down. Looked forward to the M50 mark II later this year.
Super appreciate you sharing! I'm right there with you waiting for the MK II!
Yay!! Even more confident with my purchase! I just ordered mine and it’ll be here in two days!
Please share your user experience with canon M50, I’m looking to buy one this weekend, thanks
@@syeuram I love it! It’s been good. I’ve already done a few shoots. It’s been super easy to learn on. If I had the money I would have gotten just the body and a better lens. I can’t seem to get super crisp shots with it. But all that is fixed with learning and a new lens!
@@sassysavannah4383 Is this your first camera? I need something for some real estate photography. It doesn’t seem to have a bad user experience.
@@herculeskouts1189 it’s my first personal camera, however I’ve been using my moms two for years! This camera takes very decent photos with the kit lens it comes with, but I wish I got the body and got a canon 24-70mm f/2.8 lens (L series is a dream, I just don’t have that kind of money lol).
I actually have the m50 and I’ve had it for a year now and I’m loving it so much!
I'm so glad you love your M50!
Videos like this make the M50 gang happy about our investment! All these new cameras coming out cost thousands and my lil 393$ refurbed M50 is still amazing! Great video 👍🏼
Hey. Where did you buy it?
@@lindowaves6309 Always check Canons website for refurbished sales👍🏼👊🏼
@@ivanwest3227 Thanks🙏🏽
I'm so glad they are motivating Ivan! Agree with you that it's a fantastic value!
I am currently using the m50 as my main camera. The price and the ability to buy it as a vlogger kit were the main selling points for me. However as a complete newbie, your videos really helped me understand the camera and discover its features. I know have a UA-cam Channel and I throughly enjoy making new videos every week. Learned (and still learning) a lot from you so I really wanted to thank you for that :) You have a solid subscriber right here!
I like how you respond to all of your comments - we end up learning even more from them, and it makes your content even more engaging. Your top notch for taking the time, earns my sub, +1👍
RADER FPV I’m super glad the content is being helpful. Thank you for the kind words and for being part of the channel.
@@TechGearTalk 👍
im a beginning photographer and i want to really take images and video of nature and wildlife because i keep seeing all these beautiful images of nature and i just keep saying to myself "i wish i was there". i go hiking, biking, fishing, and hunting, and i just love nature all over, even in the rain and snow. i really wanna use this camera as a tool to learn and adapt my love for beauty in the natural world, and of all the good things i hear about it, i just keep saying that i want it. i just started my job over at the zoo and after my training i can already tell that i will love my job. car is more important first but camera is totally going to be next!
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.
So glad you are enjoying it! Thanks for sharing and for being part of the channel!
Absolutely loved the review!
We also need a video on how you edit your M50 Footage on Premiere/FCP and what export settings you use for UA-cam videos.
Thank you for the kind words! Good question! I have one for the SL2 which will give you a TON of info, but I will make one for the M50: ua-cam.com/video/tTJWelIZlkI/v-deo.html

I bought my m50 in June last year, as a amateur I love it.
I’ve been watching a lot of videos on a lot of cameras. This helped me decide on the m50. Now I have to watch your other vids on using it. Had to subscribe. Excellent video.
Thought I had my mind made up for the SL2 untill this video... the electronic view finder did it for me. I watched so many videos and this video taught me the most on the m50
So glad it was useful. That EVF is so nice to have for photos.
Hi! I love the M50 and your reviews are amazing. Thank you so much! I have owned it for more than a year now but I need to learn a lot more how to use all its features. I learn lots from you. Thank you again!
I'm so glad you love your M50 Giselle! Thank for being part of the channel!
I searched around for a good camera to enter into video making and real estate photography, ended up finding the M50 with a great black Friday bundle that included a Rode audio mic. Seems like I nailed it! Thank goodness.
I just got my M50 a few days ago with the 55-200 and Sigma 3mm f1. 4. Thank you so much for all the content on this camera. I filmed my first music video with it last night with my son and the footage looks awesome. I used all your cinematic settings too. I'll share it here when I'm done. Thanks again. Love this camera!
I am so proud of you and am so glad the footage came out great!!! CONGRATS on the new gear and keep creating! You can also tag me on some content in IG and I'll check it out!
Did you guys finish your music video i would love to see the final product
@@joexdeleted3892 hi Joe, yes we completed the video and I've made several more since I bought the M50. I mainly use the sigma 56mm for most of the closeups. You can see all of my music videos here. AndreGuitar dot com under the music video production menu. Enjoy.

@@andrelamotte4447 ok dude your guitar work is phenomenal
Just got my m50..started watching the wrong videos where people compare it to better camera's and it started to freak me out thinking I have made a mistake...your videos give me comfort in that i haven't. Have the 2 kit lenses..but really need the sigma 16mm 1.4f. Then I'll be set...thanks for your videos on this beauty
CONGRATS on the new camera! I'm glad the videos have helped ease your mind about the purchase. Thank you for being part of the channel!
For someone like me who can’t afford cameras like the R5, you’ve really help me appreciate everything the M50 has to offer!
Ps. Doing my part to get you to 100K subs, keep it up!
I’m so glad the video was helpful and thank you for adding your input. Grateful for your support 🙏🏻
I am an absolute beginner UA-camr and never used a "real" camera before and I really appreciate what you have taught me and the detail you go into that I can understand. THANK YOU! I went through your tutorial several times and set my camera to manual the very first time I used it! I think it worked (at least to my untrained eye)...LOL
I’m so excited for you!! I have something coming soon that will help you with your channel!
I still love my M50 and 22mm lens combo for pretty much everything but vlogging.
Random question...what video editing software are you currently using? Love your vids! ♥
Hi there - I use Adobe Premiere Pro - thank you for the kind words 🙏
I love the 22mm
I would love to see a separate video on speed boosters for the M50.
Your opinion on which brand will be highly valued!
This is awesome! I have an M50 & love learning more about it. Do you remember the lens you shot with at 0:42 ? The quality was perf 🙌
Been using my m50 as my main camera in my real estate photo company. All i use is the kit lens also....15mm-45mm
Everyone told me it wouldnt cut it, its not full frame anf what not.
Works perfectly only wish it could do a 5 shot hdr vs 3 but it works well.
There you go. It's someone actually learning how to use their gear instead of being bullied by the "noise". Great work!
Bruh. Keep them videos coming. Love my M50. And I like that u are still making content on this camera. Dope camera and can't wait to learn more. 👊🏾 Preciate the video
Thanks so much brother! I'll keep it coming!
Absolutely agreed! Especially for someone like me who just bought my first ever interchangeable camera, a lot to learn. Especially what shutter speed aperture and iOS to take the best photos. Oh and night photography too! What led lights to use etc.
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.
:)
Love this! Makes me not regret buying my first interchangeable camera, the m50!
So glad you love it Alvin!
omg this is exactly what I was looking for! I especially loved that you had a specific, beginner audience in mind without being condescending! I just started my UA-cam channel and am looking for a decent camera. This is it! Thank you SO MUCH for this video!

@@TechGearTalk I ordered this camera the same day I saw your video!
Great...

In Serbia, the Canon M50 with a 15-45mm kit costs, currently at a discount, 480 euros. I bought it almost and I am very satisfied. The official importer is the Josipovic store, which gives a 4-year warranty.
(Otherwise it costs 520 in Josipovic, while other stores charge much more)
Appreciate the insight!
Thx a lot for making this video this is so helpful 🙂
So glad it was helpful. Appreciate you 🙏🏻
I bought the M50 for my daughter for her HS photography/videography class and she loves it. She even named the camera. It has a lot of capabilities in a small portable form factor. A video on the lens speed boost would be nice, please.
Appreciate you sharing. I will work on that video.
Hi it’s me again, can u do a video on the best video editing software and editing tips on any laptop? And how do I go about uploading the videos on my m50 to the laptop?
I woyld love that video. I'm looking to set foot into the UA-cam world and is basically clueless to all this. The reviews have been God sent
I can definitely do that - I also have something new coming very soon 😉
Tech Gear Talk thanks you’re awesome! That’s why I subscribe to your videos to learn more about my new m50 on how to take good photos on the kit lenses that came with it, but I am investing to buy my next lense which I’m looking at the 22mm or the 11-22mm. Which do you think?
My m50 literally arrived as this video was published. Thanks!! You're my go-to for camera videos
NO WAY!!! CONGRATS!!!! Appreciate you being part of the channel!
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.
@@TechGearTalk You have such a great voice and presentation style :)
@@7ombische Yes, I returned the M6 II and got the M50 because it is just so much more like a good friend.
runbei funny that I feel the same way about my M50
I just picked up a lightly used D700 in 2020...sometimes it's fun and simple to use the older gear. It's easy to get caught up with GAS and then you have so much stuff and so many advanced features you can't quite decide on what you want to do with it all.
Fantastic perspective my friend. I'm so glad you're sharing that with the community.
Bought my M50, in large part, by watching your video evaluation. Have NO regrets! I'm not a pro (nor want to be) but, my M50 has made me my family's photo historian and portrait photographer. Thank you!!
I'm so glad that you're enjoying the M50 - thank you for sharing with the community!
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.
Keep on putting out that message! If I could like your comment twice, I would (but that unlikes it so I won't)
I have much more expensive Canon cameras but this is the one that I use most because it does, pretty much, everything I want and is so easy to use. Love your videos.
Richard, I'm so happy that you're sharing this perspective with other viewers - super valuable!
I love my M50. I am still a beginner, but your channel is teaching me a lot

I knew nothing about using cameras and wanted to get into it and I just bought the M50 a month ago. No regrets so far and your videos have allowed me to maximize its use
That is so amazing to hear Thea - so excited for you. I will work on some more tutorials.
I absolutely love how simple you explain things!
Amazed by how dedicated you are in making amazing reviews. Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Thank you for the kind words. Glad they are being helpful.
Have used my M50 primarily for video. Learnt so much. Get a lens adapter and a Rode wireless mic and you can do most things. My wife won an elevator Pitch competition for her business and won £1000. The footage was easily the best looking even if I do say so myself!!!
That's a great setup! (You can probably even get by without the adapter). The mic is key! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for the information. This video was informative and pushed me off the edge to buy my "first" not phone camera in years!
Glad to hear it was helpful Matthew! Thanks for being part of the channel!
I only just subscribed but I’ve gotten so much already from your videos. Lots of great resources you provide man, thanks!
Bought it 3 weeks back with kit lens. Bundle comes with EF mount and 16gb card here in India..pretty decent combo. I always loved the combination as I Used it earlier in 2018 for a trip as I borrowed from friend. Now exploring this more. Only 2 negative points are battery backup and single card. Rest is rocking 🔥🙏
Hi
I have a question please about Canon M50
I am trying to connect the camera to the laptop without cabil (Micro HDMI cable)
so that I can see live output on my laptop..
via (WIFI) or any connection method that broadcasts the video live to big screen wireless
Would you help me please ?
thx
I’ve been thinking about getting a real camera for a couple of years now, occasionally looking at reviews but I think I’m sold on the M50, especially after this video. I learned to shoot in college 20 years ago on my dad’s old Canon AE-1 and this reminds me of the digital version of that. Can’t wait to get one!
I own the M50 and the M6 Mark ii, both are great cameras. I use my M6 Mark ii for bird and wildlife photography and the M50 for stills. I’m so glad you encourage people to check out the M50 they won’t be disappointed! Another excellent video bravo!
Appreciate you sharing! I'm so glad people are still looking at this camera - it's such a good value!
I bought it brand new a year ago with the kit lens for 450$ sick. No regret whatsoever.
Omg, you're so close to 100K. Congrats, you deserve it.
Thanks Amber - we made it! Super appreciate the support!
M50 with 18-150 lens stays in my vehicle for the last two years. Most used camera out of the 6 I have plus the phone.
I really liked your review and able to probably buy this camera or do you think I should get the M50 Mark II? What do I need to be able to capture Macro Shots? What lenses did you use? Thank you for putting this video. I have watch a ton today and this made my decision. Thank you.
Great review.
I own canon m50 for 6 months and i love it. I use it for photography and it never disappointed me, even for astrophotography and night photography it's very good.
So glad you love it. Thanks for being part of the channel
Bought an M50 today, this cam is superb! With an adapter, it's like a mini Eos R.
Would You suggest I buy the canon M50 or wait on the M50 mark ii???
I haven’t heard any concrete rumors about the mk2. If the m50 does what you want, get it. If you think you need more - maybe wait. Or buy it and then sell it when the mk2 comes.
Shopping around for my first real camera for UA-cam and you are very helpful. Havent decided yet but watching your videos def help narrow the choices!
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 )
it's worth buying in 2021 too. Just got it brand new with kit lense for $430. If you want to make nice photos and if 1080p 24p is good enough for you, it's a steal!
I just bought one based on one of your other videos. Great choice, reasonable price and it’ll last me for years for what I use it for.
Glad you're enjoying it Jason!
I’m very confused and can’t decide between 250d and m50. First priority is making UA-cam videos about my robotics projects inside home and taking photos of my family. Which one do you prefer? Thank you
I almost sold this camera bought second hand .. I noticed when I looked through the viewfinder and it was blurry (my vision is bad up close) and could not find the diopter adjustment until looking more closely I found it underneath the eyecup it's a slider and you have to flip the screen to access it , now I love this little camera !!!
Thank you for putting this video together, I just purchased my M50 today and I am learning to use it.

Just grabbed this camera for my yearbook class. Can’t wait to add this new addition😊
CONGRATS!!!
I love the bloopers... I was about to stop my m50 but now you have me thinking twice!
Thank you for the feedback Michael! Glad I could help!
I purchased the M50 before I found your channel but you've helped to solidify my choice for sure. Love your content!
If you wait around for a sale you can get the M50 for $499 at your local big box store with the kit lens. In the end I'm still invested for close to $1k into the M50 after the sigma 16mm lens, tripod, filter, and mic...but that's much less than other platforms and I'm very impressed with the quality of the content I'm getting as I learn my new equipment.
Super glad you got one for such a good price and it sounds like you've got a really nice setup!
As an m50 owner for about a year now, I really appreciate your reviews on this camera! I've been wanting to purchase another camera just so I could have the full frame. But this video has made up my mind to hold onto my m50 for a while! Thank you
what is your opinion of the camera?
@@parzemis7145 I love it. Navigation and touchscreen is easy. The only thing I don't like is when using EF lenses with the adapter, its not full frame unless you pay extra for the speed booster. But even then I watched a review on how images lose sharpness/quality with the booster adapter.
Glad they are helpful Paul! Appreciate the feedback 🙏
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.
Hi there! Great review! Will you please tell me what lens were you using at 0:39? Thank you! 🥰
Thank! It was the sigma 16mm f/1.4 Hope that helps
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
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such kind feedback, Tony. I'm glad the channel is being helpful. Good job thinking of lighting from the start! A good wide angle lens is the Sigma 16mm if it's in your budget, or the 22mm if you don't need as much widths and budget is more of a concern ua-cam.com/video/WTE0XfZhqj4/v-deo.html Hope that helps - Sagi.

I own a Nikon D5100 I bought in 2012 it came with the kit lense 18-55mm, later bought a very cheap wide angle-macro lense, but I'm planning to update my photography equipment and I don't have the best budget in the world (lets see aonly around $1000 USD) so here are my doubts:
1- Should I keep my Nikon D5100 and get a better lense, a "all in one" lense that can help me shoot much better macro and landscape photos? Maybe a Sigma or Tamron 18-200mmwith Autofocus and Automatic Stabilization?
2- Should I better buy this Canon M50 or the Sony A6100 to 6400 with their kit lense 18-140mm, or only bodies and buy a decent "all in one" separate lense?
This is what I want now: a "light weight" camera without taking with me tons of accesories, the Nikon is a bit heavy for me. That is why I am between the M50 and the Sony A6000 series. A camera with great colorimetry, great ISO, great shutter speed and aperture. I love the actual LCD have my Nikon D5100 and is very similar on the M50, and the M50 is a touch screen so its awesome! I'm not planning to use it for recording videos at all, only to photos.
So I am not sure! my Nikon D5100 is "good", but sometimes I feel "outdated", sometimes I think is time to level up my photography, and I should get a better one, but I am not sure between the Canon M50 or the Sony A6100 to 6400 series that are on my budget. I checked like 2 times the comparison video you shared with the M50 and the A6100.
Btw. The kind of photography I like is: Landscape, macros, would LOVE to take photos of wild animals and stars but most of the times is complicated with my actual camera, Thank youuuu!
My IG is @angelicayunuhen in case you want to see the type of photography I have. Thank youuuu!
I owned a Canon Mark 3 g7x but it seems like the focus is always a problem. I love this one.
OMG! I bought the M50 because of you! I was getting frustrated a little, once I watched your video on how to set it up, it was piece of cake, thank you for your help! You’re awesome!
I’m so glad I was able to help. Appreciate you being part of the channel!
, I stayed up all night watching your videos because I'm so excited to get my m50 today. You honestly did nothing but increase my excitement 10 fold. I love ur vids man, I'd love to see one on m50 accessories too
I'm so excited for you to get your new camera!!! Did you see this rig video? ua-cam.com/video/KESjvc4z4nA/v-deo.html I'll be adding more M50 accessories videos!
I bought it a few months ago... for a really really good price in my country (399.990 CLP [Chilean Peso] or 500 USD, body + kit lens ) and I do not have a single regret. It's an awesome little camera, perfect for me: a beginner who wants to learn about the beautiful world of photography. Thank you for all of your videos, I have learned a lot. (Love the bloopers!!! :D )
Appreciate you sharing your story with everyone - great deal! Thank you for the feedback regarding the bloopers!
I'm still figuring my M50 out and I always appreciate any of the videos that will make me understand it better. Thanks!
I really really really love the bloopers! LOL
So glad I'm able to help and appreciate all your support. Thank you for the feedback about bloopers - I'll keep them coming!
@@TechGearTalk Keep doing the good work!!
Growing up, I always wanted to have my own camera. Usually, I borrow camera to my friends to practice my photography skills. When I got enough money, this will be my first choice in buying a camera. Thank you for this very informative video.
- supporting all the way from Philippines!
I'm so grateful that you're sharing your story 🙏 Thank you for being part of the channel and for your support.
I bought the Canon M50 three weeks ago, and it's been an absolute game changer with my channel.
CONGRATS! I'm so glad to hear that it's working for you! Thank you for being part of the channel!
Please add the Arabic language. There are some of your followers from the Middle East and he added to me, so everything in your channel is great. Thank you man for everything you presented to us.
I will see what I can do. Thank you!
I really enjoy the way you explain things. So clear and concise and helps beginners like myself actually understand the terminology. Thank you!
I’m deciding between the SL3 and the M50. This was very helpful in so many ways - especially the audio and lenses sections. Probably most important was the recommendation to look at investing in the other components versus spending more money on the body.
Great upload. I’ve been searching UA-cam for reviews of cameras for mainly my UA-cam channel.
The options are vast!
I think the M50 is my way forward.
Thanks again,
James.
I use several brands including Canon M cameras - whilst I fully understand the benefits of FF, the size and weight makes me want to stick to APS-C once I'm on the beach playing football with my dog. I look forward to updating my eos m6 to a m50 Mk2 or M6 Mk3 with animal tracking !!
Thank you for sharing Michael. I have FF, aps-c and cinema cameras and use the aps-c the most - for exactly the reason you mentioned. Thank you for contributing to the channel!
