Question of the Day ⚡ Which camera would you buy between the Canon M50 and Mark II? Let me know! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 **** Check out the Canon EOS M50 Mark II Mirrorless Digital Camera ➡️ amzn.to/36fU1iK
Mark II...obviously i wanted to buy the m50 but bcoz i still did not bought it yet will definately go for mark II was waiting for this review thanks guys..🔥🔥
Obviously the mark II... It's just so disappointing that they added literally nothing that couldn't have been added through a firmware update. Newer sensor, better screen, better evf, dp autofocus in 120p mode or 4k, clog... Anything that would have actually warranted a "Mark II"
I'm glad I got the M50 and was able to crank a few videos before this one came out, as I was also planning on waiting. There's nothing really new here that couldn't be added to the MK1 with a firmware update
Omg, can I just say how much I appreciate your chilled out, steady speech. So many RUclipsrs talk so fast-pasted and loud that it literally gives me a headache and I have to turn off. That aside, great video.
For anyone new to the M50 (me), the MKII is worth it for the clean HDMI out. But, if Canon is reading this and/or cares... UPDATE. THE ORIGINAL. M50's. FIRMWARE. so it can do clean HDMI. A firmware update can EASILY fix that limitation of the M50. You owe it to all the people who bought the original. PLEASE UPDATE THE FIRMWARE. Thankyouuuu.
For me the Mark II is a game-changer. I already have a Mark I which is great value and perfect for my studio RUclips vids but the lack of vertical video makes it horrible to use for Instagram. Gonna get a second M50 (II) I'll setup both simultaneously shooting at different angles for RUclips vids and use the Mark II for IGTV. Live streaming will also be great. You didn't mention the vertical vid capability.
A... the m6 mark ii ... is kinda what the m50 mark ii should have been. B... yeah, I think the m7 will be a step above the the m6 mark ii. I bet it costs 1300-1500+ So, I think the m50 1 or 2 is still great. I have a lot to do with your budget.
@@ThinkMediaTV In australia the price difference isn't $50 it's $200 the m6 mark ii is in some shops cheaper than the m50 mark ii so... now I'm even more confused, or do I wait for a m7? for reference I'm upgrading from an ancient eos 1000d so almost everything on the market is an improvement.
I would pick the m50ii for its added features of clean hdmi out, livestreaming and connect to zoom as a quality zoom camera, or using for vlogging. Worth the upgrade if a person actually needs that or wants it for vlogging.
The only reason it sounds like to buy the mark ii is if you're looking at buying strictly brand new and have the money. Everything else (upgrading, buying cheap, etc) sounds like it's better just to stick to the mark i
Seeing a few 4K TV/monitors are in people's homes, I wouldn't worry too much about creating 4K content. 1080 is what has been selling for years and now for less than $250 for a 30"+ set. Given a Nikon body only is $1500 and with Z lens runs $2300 and UP. Too much for a beginners camera IMHO.
i've been debating for a few weeks now about investing in this camera, and i'm quite convinced to get it! Thanks for this. Also the pics you shot for daughter are adorable! I plan on doing baby shots for my nephew end of this year💡
Hey im planning to gift a camera to my sister for talking pics of her new 1 month a old baby. So did you end up buying the camera? is it worth it? I would like to know your review of this camera. I donot know anything about dslr camera. A dumb question i need to ask you. Are iphone cameras better than m50 camera 😂?. Im eagerly waiting for your reply
@@irfanmohd091 soo I DID end up buying the m50 and honestly its not bad of camera. It does the job just well! i did a photoshoot 2 weeks with this chick and the pics cam out pretty dope. The only flaw i could really point out is the battery life. Not the best imo, i think my old dslr can last a bit longer but then again everything including the screen is more digitized you know what i mean? And i think the iphone MAX cameras are the same if not a little better than a M50. Overall tho i think the cam was worth buying. Also too i was pretty upset when i found i couldnt use my favorite nifty 50 lens on it bc i need to add an adapter. which of courrrse costs around 100 bucks :/
Great video Omar. I have the M50 Mk1 and still having a blast using it. I’m surprised they didn’t consider dropping the 30min record limit on the Mk2 as that’s a frustrating feature I didn’t think would come to niggle me after purchase. I also have the 50mm and adapter, that’s a brilliant addition too. Peace! Paul G 😎
At first I was bummed because I JUST bought the M50 after watching some of your previous videos. But after watching this, I'm cool with what I've got. The new features didn't really leave me wanting anything. Thanks for the review!!!!!!!!!
I've been using the M50 as a webcam with a USB cable on both my MacBook and PC for months. Much easier than using a capture card and the quality is incredible compared to a regular webcam
When I first started my channel, I was skeptical of how difficult it was to continuously push out content Every. Single. Week. I had sleepless nights, the money I spent on filming equipment seemed like a waste, and I overall had no motivation to grow this channel... but I kept focused. Not only did I listen to the feedback, I learnt from my mistakes, focused on a niche and, most importantly, stayed consistent. Now... my channel is thriving more than I ever expected. If I can do it, you can too! ☺️
Thanks for this im in a funk right now i shoot a lot but when i think about editing i put it off. I managed to drop once per week but I'm looking at doing it more consistently because of the amount of shooting i do
Yasss I love it I love your energy that you put into your videos see this is what I wanted to hear from someone today I'm also going through this but I'm not giving up just yet there is still plenty of time and I already have some fans♡
@@Djdrewskiee18 🤭🤭 i just make sure no editing required that how much I am resisting 🤪 so no looking forward to learning yet another skill 😉🙃 #StayLegendary my RUclips friend 💯

@@Djdrewskiee18 That's right, keep uploading! I'll subscribe to you to make sure I see videos from you every week! Oh and subscribe to me cos some days I get a bit lazy too haha :D
Love most of the things on my M50 original, but not everything. 3 big misses that I was hoping they'd address in this upgrade... 1) If your camera is on a tripod and you're filming, you need to dismount it (including your quick release plate) to get at the battery and memory card, wtf Canon?!? 2) The placement of the microphone input is right in front of the rotating monitor, so if you're filming yourself, it blocks your clean view of the shot. and 3) Don't even get me started on the 4K cropping and useless contrast based focus as opposed to the stellar dual pixel focus. No fix, so no upgrade for me. Thanks Think Media for the video review, much appreciated!
@@JVJF7 Even with the 3 things I mentioned in my comment, I still recommend the M50. You just learn to work within its limitations. Unless you're willing to pay an extra $1,500.00 or so for an R6 full-frame mirrorless camera upgrade.
Baby photoshoot pictures were cute AF. Your daughter's adorable and the mickey mouse hat is awesome. I think I had a hat like that when I was a child. Thanks for making this comparison video. I just got an M50 but I don't live stream so I feel safe with my purchase.
I don't live stream either and I am thinking on buying the M50, however I don't know if I should get the Mark 1 or two. To edit I use a mac and I just can not decide wether to get the Mark 1 or 2.
I have the Mark I. Love it and there's not enough in the Mark II to make me want to upgrade. If I was looking to buy my first M50 I would go with the Mark II if the price tag wasn't an issue. Either way you can't go wrong with either. My concern is that Canon could possibly discontinue the EF-M line in favor of the R and that wold be a shame.
I like all features of Canon m50 Mark ii. But only one feature is not super slow motion at 1080p. I want super slow motion camera at 1080p. Which is best for me? Please suggest to me.
I'm thinking of getting the Canon M50 to start filming on RUclips - the Mark II is around $200 more than a new Canon M50 but we don't have refurbished M50s for sale here. Would you recommend getting the M50 and spending the extra $200 on a 22mm lens (flor vlogging) instead?
I would have considered replacing my M50 with the M50 ii had they removed the crop in 4K mode, or at least had maintained the autofocus abilities in both HD and 4K.
there is a speedbooster which is also a efs-to-efm adapter that negates the crop. Todd Dominey has a video about that subject. edit: not ALL lenses fit with that speedbooster. the 10-18mm EF-S lens for example, would not fit.
Just to clarify: the first M50 could do clean HDMI out, except you would have to turn off autofocus. Definitely not amazing, but still capable if you don't intend to move around much.
I am really disappointed with the mk2 version. This is nothing more than a firmware update to the mk1. This should be a free or low cost upgrade for mk1 users. So if I understand correctly, the main advantage of the mk2 is the ability to not use Canon's Webcam software. BFD As far as the refurbs go, Cannon has raised the price of them. Throughout Spring and Summer they were $425 with free shipping and dropped down to a low of $350. This is with a lens. I should have bought it then but I got caught up in the hype of the mk2 and all the new features it was supposed to have. Hopefully there will be some Black Friday deals.
Yea probably true, however, I look at it as fair upgrade. Every other brand releases the “new” version that makes you hate your current one..in the world of actual M50 users, everyone’s happy
Hey Think Media Team, Thank you for this, I am saving to buy a camera I cannot wait to purchase.. I am taking notes 📝... Love All The Way From Namibia 🇳🇦...
It's a bit late but Iv'e had the M50 M1 for a few years now and can tell you about some flaws. with a mike cable input you can't rotate the screen with out pulling the cable out. there is no volume progress bars for left and right on the screen when recording in 4K so you have no idea of the audio or volume. The IR beam on the front of the body is in the wrong place, it gets blocked some times by holding the camera, this causes blurred photos or a failed shot. You can't hot swap batteries with out removing from the tripod. the lens cap on the included lens falls off unexpectedly. the built in flash if you use it has to be manually raised which is awkward when your in a hurry to get the shot. I think the biggest piss off is no volume on the screen, some times I've had to do several takes because I didn't know that there was no audio until it was played back. I use the Saramonic Blink 500 mike kit with the twin transmitters. Tony from Australia
I am sure being a year old by now you know, that the MK1 can do clean HDMI via a "hack" simply using the USB cable to connect to the remote shooting software, and turning off the on screen info gives you clean output. I have been doing this for the last few videos I created. But now that this camera is tied to my desk with 3 cables (power, usb, and hdmi) I don't really have a camera to take around to film. So honestly torn between getting another M50 since I am used to it, and have some lens already. Or upgrade to something else. I want to get the Cannon R5C, so can't decide save that $400 for that, or spend the $400 now so I have something until I can get the R5C.
This feels like a Version 1.1 of the M50. Looks like a firmware update is all that this camera has rather than anything "new" to be honest. I'd love to know if there is anything in the hardware of the M50 Mark II that the M50 itself doesn't have that it couldn't have these same features with just a firmware update. Also, I'd also love to know if the electronic level display bug is fixed where it can display if you're using face tracking as opposed to Zone tracking as your autofocus mode.
I just purchased the Mark ii May 2023 to celebrate reaching 10,000 Subscribers and being monetized for a year ! I’m excited to see the content we create 🎉🎉
what happens if you put the kit lens and the viltrox speed booster? does it make the shot wide for vlogging or content creating?? really keen in buying the m 50 mark 2 but dont want to buy more lenses.
How do I connect my Canon M50 to my atem mini pro video switcher? When I connect my micro hdmi to the camera and the hdmi end to the stem video switcher I do not get a fees. Any thoughts?
If I want to see myself on a second monitor while I record on the m50 mark I. Is there a specific HDMI cable or the one linked in the description good to use, please?
So one of the things I was curious about, but is a bit of a niche question, is about the standby cut off. Does the mark ii cut off the display after 30 min?
About to sell my M50 Mark I, because of the massive limitations with live streaming. I don't wanna move to sony because of the Canon Lenses I have. But it's really tough.
I literally bought my M50 2 months ago... I hope this video doesn't make me replace it... Edit: Clean HDMI was the thing I was most upset about... one of the major things I bought this camera for was for livestreaming on Twitch... and was super disappointed that I had to turn off AF if I wanted to use HDMI+capture card... also the record button on the screen is super helpful, as I've failed to click the record button at the right time because I couldn't see it (only barely feel it)... God dang it... now I wish I had the Mk II...
Thanks a lot for the comparison. I’ve ordered M50 without knowing there is Mark II out there, so I needed to understand whether it’s worth returning it back and having it replaced by a newer model. The answer is no. Thanks a lot for the video!
Answered all my questions thank you. One thing though, and I say this to all reviewers. Why use the term beginner camera. It’s not. It’s for amateurs or enthusiasts. Beginner always sounds like the reviewer is saying it’s an OK camera for everyone else but not for me, as I’m too good for it. Great channel though.
Thanks for the great information and from what I have seen online this is a great camera however you have pushed me over the line even though it's more than I wanted to spend but well worth the extra money.
I’ve been stuck between the Nikon D5600 and M50 mark II. Price doesn’t matter to me. I mainly focus on photography. Is there really a big difference between these two cameras that I should take into consideration?
The canon m50 mark i is currently on sale at B&H for 550 including a rode mic and sd card. While the mark ii is selling for 650 with the kit lens. In your opinion, with a difference of 100 and without a mic, which deal is better? Im thinking of buying my first camera and I'm stuck between each one
I recently started my channel with the m50 & I have zero reasons to upgrade to the mark ii. However if i didn't own a camera and was looking to buy one then i think the m50 mark ii is amazing value for money and the best choice in this price range just like the original m50...
what about the canon eos m6? not the new one mark ll .. the older one! I know it's kind of old but I find a super good deal and I have to get a vlog and compact camera but not too expensive!! Thank you!!!!
Hey Omar! What camera+Lens would you recommend that can be used for RUclips indoor filming and for instagram/fashion pictures? A camera/lens that is flattering to the human face and is great quality for videos? Please help!
Hi! Appreciate your advice, please. I will be getting the M50 Mark II but am not too sure whether to get the 15-45 kit lens or just to buy the body alone and get the Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN instead. Your advice much appreciated. Thank you.

Probably the mark 2

I instantly bumped the playback speed to 1.5x 🤣
You could always find a way to set a default playback speed to 0.75x for these other RUclipsrs

Yea probably true, however, I look at it as fair upgrade. Every other brand releases the “new” version that makes you hate your current one..in the world of actual M50 users, everyone’s happy
ya same
M50 also can use webcam driver.
Hey Think Media Team,
Thank you for this, I am saving to buy a camera I cannot wait to purchase.. I am taking notes 📝...
Love All The Way From Namibia 🇳🇦...
the baby focus test was my fave part of this
10/10 solid test. Liked subd
It's a bit late but Iv'e had the M50 M1 for a few years now and can tell you about some flaws. with a mike cable input you can't rotate the screen with out pulling the cable out. there is no volume progress bars for left and right on the screen when recording in 4K so you have no idea of the audio or volume. The IR beam on the front of the body is in the wrong place, it gets blocked some times by holding the camera, this causes blurred photos or a failed shot. You can't hot swap batteries with out removing from the tripod. the lens cap on the included lens falls off unexpectedly. the built in flash if you use it has to be manually raised which is awkward when your in a hurry to get the shot. I think the biggest piss off is no volume on the screen, some times I've had to do several takes because I didn't know that there was no audio until it was played back. I use the Saramonic Blink 500 mike kit with the twin transmitters. Tony from Australia
hey I've found a deal on the M50 mark 1 for around 400 would you say its good deal for a beginner camera or recommend another camera
Thanks for a positive video on the Canon M50 Mark II. It is my first digital camera and I am excited! Great feedback.
I am sure being a year old by now you know, that the MK1 can do clean HDMI via a "hack" simply using the USB cable to connect to the remote shooting software, and turning off the on screen info gives you clean output. I have been doing this for the last few videos I created.
But now that this camera is tied to my desk with 3 cables (power, usb, and hdmi) I don't really have a camera to take around to film. So honestly torn between getting another M50 since I am used to it, and have some lens already. Or upgrade to something else.
I want to get the Cannon R5C, so can't decide save that $400 for that, or spend the $400 now so I have something until I can get the R5C.
Thanks for the info! I will look to this idea in the future. Precious 2yr old pics!!
This feels like a Version 1.1 of the M50. Looks like a firmware update is all that this camera has rather than anything "new" to be honest. I'd love to know if there is anything in the hardware of the M50 Mark II that the M50 itself doesn't have that it couldn't have these same features with just a firmware update. Also, I'd also love to know if the electronic level display bug is fixed where it can display if you're using face tracking as opposed to Zone tracking as your autofocus mode.
Ive been waiting for this camera!!!
I’m saving up for it
@@jdel3732 Hell yeah!!!
Great video guys
from a photographer perspective, is it worth it to buy the M50 mark ii or M50?
I am planning to buy a mirrorles camera at the end of this year
Thanks for the review. The link to the Cheap Capture Card does not work. What's the name on the unit so we can search for it?
Just started my channel this year I'm using my iPhone
U really inspired me
Good review which, for me, clearly explained the differences between the two. Thanks for sharing
Guys, would this camera be good with my Macbook Pro and Blackmagic studio for my zoom streams? This seems like it’d be perfect
Yes the Mark ii for live-streaming
Thank you, Omar!!! Appreciate you! 🤘🏽
I'm just gonna keep saving up and buy the Canon Eos R6 :)
I just picked up an m50 super cheap. Im excited to have something smaller than my 6dii for an everyday carry and maybe dabble in some video.
I just purchased the Mark ii May 2023 to celebrate reaching 10,000 Subscribers and being monetized for a year !
I’m excited to see the content we create 🎉🎉
I have a Sony a5000 and want to upgrade to a cam With mic input. Would a second hand M50 mk1 be a good option?
M50 I is a solid option to go with for that mic input.
Thanks for your video. It helped me a lot in choosing what to buy.
Which tripod are you using at 7:54 where you are showing the camera doing a live stream? Thanks.
what happens if you put the kit lens and the viltrox speed booster? does it make the shot wide for vlogging or content creating?? really keen in buying the m 50 mark 2 but dont want to buy more lenses.
Excellent analysis
How do I connect my Canon M50 to my atem mini pro video switcher? When I connect my micro hdmi to the camera and the hdmi end to the stem video switcher I do not get a fees. Any thoughts?
If I want to see myself on a second monitor while I record on the m50 mark I. Is there a specific HDMI cable or the one linked in the description good to use, please?
I think you missed a main feature added, they also added a crop zoom video, where as before it was just a manual focus adjuster.
Does the M50 mk2 still have the 30 min recording/screentime limit?
Thank you for this video. You’ve helped me immensely with my decision!
how abt Fujifilm, XT200? should i go for Fujifilm, XT200 ? as first time camera user !
Hey man, what’s the mount you use for the camera at 2:45? I’ve been looking for one
So one of the things I was curious about, but is a bit of a niche question, is about the standby cut off. Does the mark ii cut off the display after 30 min?
About to sell my M50 Mark I, because of the massive limitations with live streaming. I don't wanna move to sony because of the Canon Lenses I have. But it's really tough.
Go with the M6 ii body if you can - the display shuts off on the flip out screen but gives the hdmi a continuous output
For the m50 ii
Hi
Thanks for the info.
Could you please do a video of how M50 Mark ii performs as a camera for green screen video.
Thanks
I literally bought my M50 2 months ago...
I hope this video doesn't make me replace it...
Edit: Clean HDMI was the thing I was most upset about... one of the major things I bought this camera for was for livestreaming on Twitch... and was super disappointed that I had to turn off AF if I wanted to use HDMI+capture card... also the record button on the screen is super helpful, as I've failed to click the record button at the right time because I couldn't see it (only barely feel it)...
God dang it... now I wish I had the Mk II...
Thanks a lot for the comparison. I’ve ordered M50 without knowing there is Mark II out there, so I needed to understand whether it’s worth returning it back and having it replaced by a newer model. The answer is no. Thanks a lot for the video!
i bought a lot of accessories for m50 but does the JOBY GorillaPod 3K Kit work on the m50 mark 2?
Answered all my questions thank you. One thing though, and I say this to all reviewers. Why use the term beginner camera. It’s not. It’s for amateurs or enthusiasts. Beginner always sounds like the reviewer is saying it’s an OK camera for everyone else but not for me, as I’m too good for it. Great channel though.
Thanks for the great information and from what I have seen online this is a great camera however you have pushed me over the line even though it's more than I wanted to spend but well worth the extra money.
Can't wait for December, it's getting launched in India in December yaaaay
Nice! Thanks for this. I'm going to get the Mark II then.
I’ve been stuck between the Nikon D5600 and M50 mark II. Price doesn’t matter to me. I mainly focus on photography. Is there really a big difference between these two cameras that I should take into consideration?
I’m having the same dilemma right now. Which did you end up getting? And do you recommend?
Great info! Thanks!
The canon m50 mark i is currently on sale at B&H for 550 including a rode mic and sd card. While the mark ii is selling for 650 with the kit lens. In your opinion, with a difference of 100 and without a mic, which deal is better? Im thinking of buying my first camera and I'm stuck between each one
I recently started my channel with the m50 & I have zero reasons to upgrade to the mark ii. However if i didn't own a camera and was looking to buy one then i think the m50 mark ii is amazing value for money and the best choice in this price range just like the original m50...
I am thinking of buying the canon m50 mark ll,so should I?
Yes!
Nah . Get a refurbished m50 for cheap bro
what about the canon eos m6? not the new one mark ll .. the older one! I know it's kind of old but I find a super good deal and I have to get a vlog and compact camera but not too expensive!! Thank you!!!!
I HAVE TWO but how do I tell the difference between the Mark1 and the Mark 2? I THOUGHT I had two Mark 2's but one has a different color menu.
5 months after this was posted...I just purchased the m50 creator kit: includes basic mic and second lens for the same price as the mark ii.

Hello, if you connect the Mark II to the Power Bank via USB, will the Power Bank work as an additional battery when shooting? Thank you in advance!
Very good video as always. Feels a bit might as well get a 2nd mark I. But the live Stream options sounds good tho. 🎬😊👍🏻
Thanks for this review, can I charge this camera while using it (like in web cam mode) or it can only be powered by internal battery? Thanks!
im loving the music in this video. the track at the end was nice!
It's gay
Hey Omar! What camera+Lens would you recommend that can be used for RUclips indoor filming and for instagram/fashion pictures? A camera/lens that is flattering to the human face and is great quality for videos? Please help!
22mm EF-M
So helpful. Thank you. Worth the extra $50 for the webcams
Great video thanks, would get Mark I instead I guess.
Hi! Appreciate your advice, please. I will be getting the M50 Mark II but am not too sure whether to get the 15-45 kit lens or just to buy the body alone and get the Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN instead. Your advice much appreciated. Thank you.
