Customer Ratings & Reviews

I always love Canon cameras, but having a dedicated portable video camera is amazing, very easy to use and so light. paired up with my DJI RS4 Mini with great performance and results

This is my first mirrorless camera and I have to say it has been such a blast using! Super user friendly for newbies to mirrorless and super focused on videos. Can’t wait to keep creating with this camera!

Before buying this camera understand it's a VIDEO camera first. While it does some some great features for shooting photos, the main focus on the features will be video related. I'm not really a blogger or do live streams. Near 100% of what I'll be using the video functions for won't involve many humans so beautification filters will be used at a minimum if used at all. The main subjects will be machinery and production videos I post on our website. I really wish I had more time to work with the camera before making a review because I'm still not done reading the manual - I always RTFM and this one is over 800 pages. So I don't have a hold of all the features nor do I have very many subject to record and play with since the slow season just started this week after the holiday. One thing I thought was weird was that the box included a huge "manual." Imagine my disappointment when I open it and it's only a CYA and note on where to find the real manual in dozens of languages. So you won't have a physical copy of the manual to lug around if needed. Get the PDF and have a good time reading it on your phone. My older camera is a Micro 4/3 that has been going strong for about 13 yrs. Sadly, my collection of lenses won't transfer over to the R50 V so I'll have to slowly rebuild my collection - lenses aren't cheap! I didn't get a chance to dig deeper into the features like I had hoped because setting up, recording, and editing videos isn't a fast process. So the majority of what I've done is with auto mode until I can get a proper set up, subject, and most importantly, more time. With photos under auto and in a indoor setting with LED lights, the photos come out slightly too dark. Good thing is that the RAW images can be post processes with Lightroom or Camera Raw and Photoshop to get everything where you want it to be. The resolution and detail are fine, but I need to do more testing or try a different lens to try and get more detail. The images come out just a bit too soft for my tastes. Videos have tons of options and custom presets - opposite of what you'd expect with a still photo camera. Most of my video will be at 1080p with some being reduced to 720p. Maybe I'm expecting too much but even the video has slightly soft images like the photos. I really need to get another lens to rule it out as the problem and not the sensor. The raw files are pretty grainy compared to my other camera and the built in processing uses too much noise reduction for my tastes and makes the image too smooth to almost finger paint quality when zoomed at 100%. So, my impression right now is that the Camera is just OK. Maybe with more time discovering the quirks and trying other lenses I can tweak everything to where it's more pleasing. But as of now...I don't find it more than just a decent, not great, camera for video and photos.

My first camera and it is super cool and easy to use and give you brilliant results

Clear quality for both video and photo light weight as well the only thing is no flash but I was able to get something separate most of my use for it is day use so I’m not worried about it !

Great camera! Very easy to use and takes amazing pictures! I like that it’s not very big. A perfect size.

Great Camera for a Teen or New User. Easy menus to navigate. Easy lens to attach. Would recommend.

Recently purchased this camera at Best Buy , great deal on a great camera

This camera takes excellent pictures !!! The quality of the photos are outstanding!!!

Nice gift for my daughter she really loved it little bit expensive but it is very good

Great camera for the price, the lens that came with it has stabilizers which is great for a camera without IBIS.

Great camera so far really have enjoyed since Christmas .

Great little starter video camera from Canon. Packs a punch way above its weight for the price and gets you into the Canon ecosystem, which is the best out there. Perfect blogging camera or B-cam to Canons other more high end options.

works very well i am very satisfiedso i decided to buy another one for my work

This is a really fun camera easy to get used to and has a lot of great pro features. I would recommend getting a grip for it from small rig as the camera is very small.. The added weight of the grip makes it more stable since you do not have ibis.

Great Camera!!! I would recommend to anyone that wants to start shooting great video and pictures.

The Canon R50V was the perfect Christmas gift for my son, who is just starting out in the world of photography.

Great for content. Good for the price. Totally recommend.

I like the weight of them camera. Very light compared to others. Easy to use and having the movable viewer is a definite plus.

Great starter camera and a good purchase for anyone looking to break into this area!
