Should I switch Cameras before it's too late?

Be informed Not influenced. Saying point blank “Sonys are better than Canons” is fanboyism at best, stupidity at worst. Yes, of course an a6700 is better than an r50, because the corresponding model to an a6700 is an r7, not an r50. Compare an r50 against other entry models, a6000 and a6100, you mig

Bought my first camera about a month ago, how can I bing out its full potential? More in details.

I got a Canon EOS R50 double zoom kit as my first real camera and have absolutely loved it and the potential it has. However I feel like I could be better.

In particular I really enjoy doing night photography. It just seems to be hard to properly get the camera to capture night time photos the way

my first year of birding

currently using the canon r50 paried with the RF-800 F/11. as far as telephoto/mirrorless combos its pretty cheap and has given me amazing results. the RF 100-400 is also incredibly good as a budget telephoto lens

Have cameras gotten so expensive everywhere lately?

The Canon 750D was released in 2015 at a list price of €799. That would be over €1000 today. So that R50 is maybe evidence of MORE value for the money now than ever.

Tomorrow is the big day

Hi everyone, I'm French, I've been living in Mexico for almost 12 years and tomorrow I'm starting the great adventure of photography because I'm going to receive my Canon EOS R50.

Pets photography? visor vs screen

I try using the viewfinder to take more shots (because of the movement), but it’s kind of hard, so I end up using the screen. The problem is that it adds a lot of delay/lag after each photo. Live view on the Nikon D5200 is using a contrast detect autofocus system that is terrible compared to the pha

Canon R50, not a real camera?

youtubers say a lot of crap. i’m not super familiar with the canon lineup but if you like the r50 and you like the results then just use it and ignore stupid commentary.

Should I switch Cameras before it's too late?

As a Sony shooter, my advice is to pay close attention to those telling you that Sony is better than Canon at car photography. Note their names, and unsubscribe from their youtube channels and instagram feeds because they are full of shit and their advice is questionable. And certainly, selling an R

Testing out a telephoto lens from Salisbury Crags

I am just getting started so it’s a relatively cheap and accessible setup I got for safari. Canon R50 with the canon rf 100-400mm f/5.6-8 is usm. This was taken at 400mm. The crop sensor gives it extra reach so it’s 640 mm equivalent.
