10 / 10

Yes, even though its 1080p 60fps recording function can't go beyond 10 minutes, considering the price, it's quite sufficient. Moreover, there are numerous handy features which make it easy for beginners to use. The screen is also touchscreen, simplifying the operation for new users. Plus, its user interface is straightforward, not too complex.

Pros

• Max 1080 60fps
• Lightweight
• Easy to hold
• 180° flip screen useful for vlogging
• Internal flash

Cons

• No hotshoe
• No external mic

Optics

sensor size

APS-C

APS-C

One of the most important aspects of a camera is the size of its sensor. A larger sensor will capture more light, which results in improved low-light performance, dynamic range, and general image quality.lens mount

The type of mount that connects the lens to the camera.focus points

49

143

The more focus points the more flexibility in picking which part of the scene to focus on. They also give the image sensor a better probability in identifying the right area of the scene to focus on in more automatic modes.megapixels (main camera)

24.2 MP

24.1 MP

The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.maximum ISO

25600 ISO

25600 ISO

With a higher light sensitivity (ISO level), the sensor absorbs more light. This can be used to capture moving objects using a fast shutter speed, or to take images in low light without using a flash.maximum expanded ISO

25600 ISO

51200 ISO

Expanded ISO allows you to go beyond the native ISO. It does this by digitally enhancing the image output. The resulting image will have less quality than when staying within the native ISO range, but it can be useful in certain situations.has sensor shift stabilization✖Canon EOS M100✖EOS M50With sensor shift, the image sensor (rather than the lens) moves to counterbalance any vibration of the camera. This means the image will be stabilised regardless of what lens is being used.continuous shooting (mechanical)

✖EOS M50The camera can take a series of shots, shifting the sensor slightly with each one. These can then be combined to create an extremely high-resolution image. It’s particularly useful for things like photographing artwork.shoots raw✔Canon EOS M100✔EOS M50A raw image file contains minimally processed data from the image sensor.
