Review: While Canon's M-series cameras aren't dead yet, the R50 is positioned as the series' replacement, but it's overall much more than that.
The R50 does not keep up with moving subjects to the same degree the R8 and R6 Mark II do, which is understandable considering the price and the size. Still, the R50 and the new subject-recognition technology do a much better job at autofocus than I expected.
Smartphones are popular because they’re ubiquitous and persistent — very few people leave home without their phones these days. Smartphone photography is common and popular not just because the phone is present but because photography with the phone is nearly friction-free. The standard A+ settings “shoot with settings that suit the scene” according to the camera—just as the Auto mode on cameras has done for years.
There’s no way to know what the camera is doing, nor does it seem like the results are improvements. After capturing an image in the Advanced A+ mode, the camera displays nothing but the word “Busy” for a seemingly random amount of time. The longest the word hung on the screen for me was eight seconds. “Processing” might be a better word choice, but in any case, at no time were the results from this mode better than simply shooting with standard camera settings.
I cannot imagine a customer willing to learn the various creative controls of the styles, effects, and A+ modes, nor one that would look at these various controls and think, “this is better than my smartphone.” The ability of the AF system to track the subject in video mode was impressive, but the footage was unusable due to the massive shake.
