Hi folks, former M4/3 user here :)

I'm seeking for a new camera, both fine for stills and cinematic videos. I think m43 is now in decay, so I consider APS-C (I also considered FF, but it's way out of my budget).

I like modern Canon lineup despite of its bulk-iness compared to other mirrorless cameras. As any m43 user I'm pretty spoiled with IBIS, so in that case R7 would be the best suitable option for me, considering my several manual lenses (and will to make short cinematic films either).

However, price of R7 (even used or slightly used) in my region is х1.8/х2.0 more than R10/R50. Is it worth of money, considering periodical shooting stills/video with manual lens?

Is the quality of footage/stills coming from R7 even x1.5 better than R10/R50? Or I should spend this money on RF lenses, which I could use in future after upgrade to an FF R-series camera?

P.S. Is there any video assists on R10/R50 such as zebras and focus peaking? And is HDR PQ, coming out from these models, any suitable for post-grading in Davinci/Premiere?

Hi! I put out a post a while back about upgrading my camera. I was originally looking at DSLRs, but I was convinced to look into mirrorless and have decided to go that route.

I’m between the R50 and the R10. I like the R50 because of its price and simplicity, but don’t know if the R10 has more value and if it’s better for what I need.

What exactly are the differences between these cameras? Is the R10 worth the few extra hundred? Or will the R50 be more than capable for what I need?

(A little about me and my photography needs: I’m a college journalism student who has gotten into photography because of that. A lot of what I’m doing would be based on that, but I am also working as a photographer/videographer for my campus recreation center. So lots of street, event, and sport photography. I also want something that is good (doesn’t need to be great) at portraits and wildlife.

Upgrading from a Canon EOS Rebel SL1. My lenses are the 18-55 kit, a 50mm f/1.8, and a EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6. I will be getting an adapter to save money on lenses.)

I appreciate the advice. Thanks!

I’m looking to get my first mirrorless camera and I’m choosing between the R10 and R50. My budget is a total of $1,100. I’ve found both of these used on MPB, R10 for about 800 and R50 for about 6-700. I’m coming from a T7 right now. What should I get?

Hey all. As the title says, I’m looking to get into the mirrorless world of lenses. Based on research, I have come to find that these are the best for my price range and quality. I mainly shoot sports, but I want to get into portrait photography more. I am trying not to spend much more than $1000, and understand that I will have to wait on lenses (will be getting an rf-ef adapter). I was looking for opinions on these, is the deal for R100 worth it or should I look at R10/ R50? Do you have any other recommendations? I currently have an EOS Rebel T7 if that helps.

Hey everyone, total camera newbie here! I’m ready to buy my first serious camera, and I’m torn between a few Canon options. I know some are more advanced and technically “better,” but I’m not sure if it’s worth paying for more features as a complete beginner, or if the cheaper option will still give me plenty of room to grow.

Here are my options & budgets (all approximate final prices I’ve seen):

• Canon EOS R50 + RF-S 18-45 + RF 75-300 (Black) → 650 €

• Canon EOS R10 Kit + RF-S 18-150 mm → 990 € (heard it’s been as low as 850 € in the past)

• Canon EOS R7 Kit 18-150 mm → 1190 €

Budget:
I’m comfortable spending up to 1200 €, but if a cheaper option is clearly better for my use case, I would happily go with that.

Required / Desired Features:
• Decent image quality for travel, landscapes, portraits
• Good autofocus for everyday use
• Video capability would be nice (but not my main focus)

Intended Use:
• Travel photography
• Landscapes and nature
• Portraits & street photography
• Occasional wild animals
• Some casual video (not a priority)

Experience Level:
• Zero

Specific questions I have:

1. As a complete beginner, is it worth spending the extra money on the R10 or R7 now, or is the R50 a better starting point?

2. Will I feel limited after a short time with the cheaper R50 kit?

3. Does the R7’s IBIS and overall performance justify the price at this stage?

4. Is the 18-150 mm lens worth it over the 18-45 mm + 75-300 mm setup if I want flexibility without swapping lenses constantly?

5. Any recommendation based on long-term growth potential vs beginner friendliness?

Appreciate any real user experience or comparisons you can share! Thanks 😊

Since the release of both camera's I've been looking to get rid of my backup body (the RP) and add a crop sensor to the collection. Specifically for wildlife, to get more use out of my Tamron 150-600 telephoto lens. I recently picked up wildlife photography and enjoying it a lot, however not sure if it's something I'm fully committed on yet.

My main reason to go for either of these 2 bodies is their insane AI autofocus and tracking combined with the newest technology, DIGIC X and sensor. But here is where I'm stuck.

The R10 is basically the R7 but in a cheaper body with a bit less options but for me I wonder if the R7 is worth the extra price bump. This is why:

• I never had IBIS and I don't think I really need it

• I never use any camera in pouring rain or wet conditions

• I never do video on my camera

• I don't need 2 SD card slots (in 8 years I've had no issues using one slot)

• battery life of both camera's is already better than what I own now and I always make it though the day with this.

• I prefer the wheel and button layout of the R10 because it's more familiar.

So basically my only reason to go for the R7 would be to have a more future proof body, which is more robust, has a bigger battery and more megapixels. But I really wonder if the megapixels is something to go for or not. The price difference here is €1.700 (R7) vs €900 (R10). You can get quite a cool EF or RF lens for that difference.

So What do you think I should do? Get a more future proof body for almost double the money or try out the R10 which ticks most of the boxes for me and settle with less good specs.
