Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body

The Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body is a lightweight RF mount camera with a 12 fps electronic first curtain and 15 fps with an electronic shutter, plus auto subject detection and tracking of people, animals, and vehicles. Its advanced A+ Assist (auto mode) makes it easy to take great shots in difficult settings.

Optimized For Video.

Shoot 4k uncropped video at up to 30 fps, oversampled from 6k, allowing for more detailed footage. You can also film slow-motion at a high frame rate of 120 fps in full HD. There are different modes that make filming much easier — such as the close-up demo mode — which seamlessly switches focus when a product is brought close to the camera.

Canon RF Lenses.

The R8 is a perfect pair with the all-new Canon RF-S55-210mm F5-7.1 IS STM Lens, great for photographers who are looking for reach yet want to travel light. A compact, lightweight lens is compatible with all Canon RF-mount mirrorless cameras.

Features

24.2 Megapixel (APS-C) CMOS Sensor
Equipped with a 24.2-million-pixel CMOS (APS-C) image sensor and DIGIC X Image Processor, the Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body can capture images and videos with reduced noise, delivering clear, detailed results even in low light. Images look beautiful even when enlarged, with natural bokeh that smartphones can’t offer.

Dual Pixel CMOS AF II
Easily keep track of your subject with Dual Pixel CMOS AF II – a highly responsive system that covers up to approximately 100% x 100% of the picture area, breaking the image into up to 651 automatically-selected AF zones during Whole Area AF. This enables impressive autofocus coverage on the Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body that helps you get the photo you want right as the moment happens.

Automatic Subject Detection and Tracking
When the subject is found on screen, the Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body can automatically select and track the subject, enabling photography that keeps them in focus with ease. Developed using Deep Learning Technology, subjects like people, animals including dogs, cats, and birds, and vehicles such as cars and motorcycles – especially in a motorsports environment – are detectable.

Continuous Shooting
Capture those can’t-miss moments with up to 12 frames per second continuous shooting using the Electronic First Curtain shutter mode, and up to 15 frames per second with Electronic Shutter mode. Electronic First Curtain enables shooting with less distortion, even for subjects with significant movement. The Electronic Shutter generates no shutter noise, making it useful when photographing sleeping children, concerts, dance recitals, and other situations where silence is necessary.

Advanced A+ Assist
Experience the joy of creative photography with an expanded array of auto-compatible scenes. Advanced A+ Assist on the Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body enables great imagery even in difficult settings such as night views and backlit scenarios. Overexposure is automatically reduced so you can capture dynamic scenes or bright portraits, and multiple continuous shots are taken to create beautiful night images or macro photography with a deeper depth of field.

Vlogging Made Simple and Convenient
With video recording features such as 6K oversampled uncropped 4K movie at up to 30 fps, Full-HD High-frame rate movie recording at up to 120 fps, Dual Pixel CMOS AF tracking, and Movie for Close-up Demo Mode, the Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body makes vlogging and video content creation simple and convenient.

Continuous Movie Recording That Exceeds 30 Minutes
The Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body can continuously record video for up to 1 hour, allowing you to set up your video and keep your vlog, podcast, or other video project rolling without worrying about it stopping.

Movie for Close-Up Demos Mode
Ensure the correct subject is in focus with Movie for Close-up Demos Mode on the Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body. This mode quickly switches focus from the on-camera subject to an object that is presented towards the camera’s lens, ideal for movies where showing a product to the viewers is necessary such as in makeup demos, or cooking videos.

Vertical Movie Mode and Aspect Markers
Movie rotation information can be set during or after movie recording, allowing videos to be played in vertical composition when viewing on a smartphone. The Aspect Markers Function displays visual markers for different aspect ratios that may be desired for posting the same file to various social media sites. This display provides consideration for proper composition for the different deliverable files that can be created when editing.

UVC Livestreaming
UVC/UAC compatibility allows the Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body to be used as a web camera to stream live video in Full HD 30 fps fixed, without additional computer software, to applications such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Skype, and similar online web conferencing software.

Vari-Angle Touchscreen LCD
Featuring a 3.0-inch, 1.62 million dot Clear View LCD II Vari-angle Touchscreen LCD, the Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body makes it easy to compose and shoot from virtually any angle. With the EOS R8 Touch and Drag AF functionality, you can intuitively and swiftly move the autofocus point on the touch-panel LCD.

Precise Electronic Viewfinder
The Canon EOS R50 Mirrorless Camera Body is equipped with a high-precision 0.39-inch OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) EVF with approx. 2.36 million dots and a 22mm eyepoint which displays a bright image and extensive shooting information. The EVF supports up to a 120 fps refresh rate and has been designed to provide a bright, sharp, and colorful 100% view of the subject at hand. There’s also an Optical Viewfinder (OVF) Simulation setting, which provides a higher dynamic range viewfinder image for outstanding viewing in harsh, contrasty lighting situations.
