- General
- Brand: Canon
- Model Number: 5811C012
- Product Name: EOS R50 4K Video Mirrorless Camera with RF-S18-45mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM Lens
- Color: Black
- Product Set: Body + RF-S18-45mm (Black)
- Camera Model Family: Canon R50
- Digital Camera Type: Mirrorless Camera with Lens
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Sensor Size: APS-C (22.2 x 14.8 mm)
- Total Pixels: 25 megapixels (Generally, the more pixels, the higher the image resolution and the finer the detail that can be seen.)
- Zoom Capability: true (This function allows for magnification of the subject.)
- Digital Zoom: 10x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- In-Camera Image Stabilization: false (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. In-camera stabilization means the image sensor itself moves to counteract detected motion.)
- Image File Format(s): JPEG, HEIF, RAW (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
- Focus
- Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
- Eye Autofocus (Eye AF): true (Automatically seeks out and focuses on the subject's eye and holds it as the camera and subject move and as the photographer shoots at high frame rates.)
- Number of Autofocus Points (Up To): 4503
- Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: Electronic 1st-curtain shutter:1/4000th sec – 30 seconds, in 1/3-step increments. Electronic shutter:1/8000th sec – 30 seconds, in 1/3-step increments (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Minimum Aperture: f/6.3 (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
- Maximum Aperture: f/4.5 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
- Minimum ISO: 100 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. When there is plenty of light, using the lowest ISO setting available will typically result in a higher quality image.)
- Maximum ISO: 32000 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. In low-light environments, using a higher ISO setting helps to capture a sharp, bright image.)
- Maximum Expandable ISO: 51200 (ISO is the measurement of a camera image sensor's light sensitivity. Expandable ISO settings use software to simulate brighter images than the device's native ISO range is capable of capturing.)
- Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
- Self Timer: true
- Self-Timer Delay: 2 seconds, 10 seconds, Continuous shooting

(Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
- Effective Pixels: 24.2 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
- Lens
- Lens Mount Compatibility: Canon RF
- Lens Type: Standard Zoom
- Minimum Focal Length: 18 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Focal Length: 45 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
- In-Lens Image Stabilization: true (This feature helps reduce image blurring from camera motion. Lens stabilization means an element within the lens moves automatically to counteract detected motion.)
- Lens Series: Canon RF (The product group that the lens belongs to, based on similar shared features.)

- Screen Size: 3 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
- Viewfinder Type: Electronic (A viewfinder is the part of a camera (or attachment) that allows you to see and focus a scene in frame. Optical viewfinders let you view the scene directly through the lens. Electronic viewfinders display the image on a screen in its approximate final form.)
- Viewfinder Magnification: 0.96 times (The measurement of the apparent size of the image in the viewfinder compared to how it would be seen with the naked eye.)
- Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
- Varying Angle Screen: true (The camera's screen can be flipped out and adjusted to rotate, tilt, and/or swivel.)

- Standardized Video Resolution: 4K (2160p) (An approximated measurement of the product’s video resolution. This may not be the exact resolution of the product, which may be slightly more or less when using a pixel-by-pixel measurement.)
- Video Resolution(s) and Frame Rate(s): 4K (2160p) video recording (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, and the frame rate used to capture the video. The higher the resolution the finer the video detail that can be seen. The faster the frame rate the smoother the playback for higher motion activities like sports.)

Whether you’re shooting in RAW or JPEG, the image quality is consistently reliable. ⸻ Video Capabilities The R50 excels in video for its class. It records uncropped 4K at 30fps, downsampled from 6K, which results in crisp and detailed footage. It also supports Full HD at up to 120fps for slow motion. The Dual Pixel CMOS AF II system keeps subjects in focus with impressive speed and accuracy, even while moving. ⸻ Autofocus and Performance Canon’s Dual Pixel AF is fast, accurate, and includes subject tracking for people, animals, and vehicles. It works well in both stills and video, making it ideal for creators who need reliable focus while filming or taking portraits. The burst shooting speed of up to 15fps (electronic shutter) is also impressive for a camera in this category. ⸻ Design and Usability Lightweight and compact, the R50 is easy to carry around, making it a great choice for travel and vlogging. The fully articulating touchscreen is responsive and perfect for self-recording, especially when mounted on a tripod or handheld gimbal. The intuitive menu and guided UI are especially helpful for beginners. ⸻ Connectivity and Features The R50 includes built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for seamless image transfer and remote control via the Canon Camera Connect app. It also supports clean HDMI output and USB streaming, making it a solid option for live streaming or webcam use. ⸻ Pros • Excellent image and video quality for its price • Fast, reliable autofocus with subject tracking • Uncropped 4K video and slow-motion Full HD • Fully articulating touchscreen • Lightweight and easy to use • Great for streaming and content creation Cons • No in-body image stabilization (only digital IS in video) • Single card slot • Limited physical controls for advanced users • Shorter battery life compared to larger mirrorless models

Amazing Camera
Taken this is my first camera and I’m still learning new things every day. However, I can truly say it’s been amazing. The quality of the photos, color, weight of camera and battery life has been exceptional. My only regret is that I didn’t buy the second lens at the time, but I do plan to buy it and others in time!
