So m50 is a mirrorless? That means it's lighter than the SL3. Can I just get the older SL2? I heard for video, the m50 is a little easier to use. That's why it's more popular for video creators.
I've watched hundreds of reviews on RUclips but they've never cleared my mind, until I watched this video! I'm a beginner and I'm finally going to buy an SL3, thanks to you!
appreciate you man. I was looking for a video that actually took the time to explain the M50s photography abilities instead of the hyped up vlogging capailites that everyone was hyping up. Im a hybrid shooter but more on the photography end. This video is what pushed me to get the m50 i am extremely happy with it thank you!
I actually just got my M50 but I think the SL3 is phenomenal as well. I am upgrading from my old and loved 40D so it would have made sense for me to get SL3 and just use the lenses I already have. But I have to say I really really just wanted a mirrorless camera and wanted to stick with Canon. So getting the little converter isn't so big a deal.
Have you enjoyed using the m50 more than the 40d? Im looking to buy my first interchangeable lens camera, I really like the idea of mirrorless, but the 250d/sl3 looks great value.
A huge benefit is the EF glass on the SL3. You have more options, more used options, and you get the "free" extra reach the crop sensor gives you. Plus when you us an EF lens on a crop sensor you are only using the center of the glass and that is the sharpest and least distorted area because it is the easiest to manufacture. Granted you can do the same on the other one with spending even more money for an expensive adapter. Then again, you now have to deal with an adapter. I also like how I can compose, preview, and focus and imagine without even turning the camera on.
Thanks for sharing this interesting perspective! Sometimes that crop does come in handy! I guess it's a little bit fo a double edge sword, but it does depend on what your shooting. At the moment you can get the M50 and the Speedbooster for the same amount as the SL3, so the cost is constantly fluctuating. But having the extra battery life and the optical viewfinder are also huge benefits of the SL3 over the M50.
@@KaiCreative You are absolutely correct, if I shot video I would have purchased the M50 all day long. For my needs the SL3 worked. Coming from someone that takes 40 minutes to decide on a netflix video it wasn't an easy choice but, I don't regret it.
I’m still using a 1200D with a nifty 50 and 24mm (I know shameful 😂) but I must say I’ve got faster with the controls and am looking to upgrade to either the SL3/M50. That adaptor is really making me lean towards the SL3 though..
@@daktadre The 50mm f1.8 on the SL3 is gorgeous. It makes you look much better than you should lol :) I use that lens more than any and the 55-250mm next.
In the end I got the SL3 + the nifty fifty (50 mm f/1.8) for cheaper than the M50 alone. And recently I got a used Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 for an incredible price - something that wouldn't have been possible had I gotten the M50.
I would definitely choose sl3 'cause of clean hdmi output and a bigger body which helps to have a better grip on ur hand. It can take up to 1300 photo with some settings if i am not wrong
I love my M50 but I did not know bout the crop factor of 1.6 for the senzor sow a bought the 50 nifty wiche with a normal adaptor ecuales to 80 mm lens then a gat the 30 mm lens from sigma times 1.6 ecuales to 48mm ,sow finele a gat the perfect lense for my portret fotografii 🥰🥰🥰
Thanks Reeku - it’s seems so weird to be talking about cameras during this time - but some have told me they like the “distraction” from the normal doom and gloom updates - hope that everything is well with you and yours 🙏
I was debating which of these I want to upgrade from my T100. I chose the sl3 mostly because I own 4 lenses and didn't want to purchase an adapter to use them. As I'd rather use that money toward purchasing another lens. Great video! It helped confirm I made the right decision for my needs.
I'll probably grab an M50.. No Kit lens.. I need a small lil camera to run on a gimbal for real estate video.. That cam with the 11-22 would probably work well.
Thanks a lot for a very informative comparison of the M50 & the SL3 ! I will be using the camera mostly for video. So I’ll be choosing the SL3. And i hope it’s much easier to handle vs a camcorder.
This may be a weird input, but I truly love how soft the SL3 is in on the skin, whereas the M50 shows too much heavy detail that will be needed to edit later on,
@@KaiCreative You aren't bribing your model. You are paying her. And ice cream is not a bad deal for you. Good thing they don't have child labour laws for models🍦
I recently bought a SL3. I mostly use bridge cameras so I am not used to the shutter noise. I need to go find some good subjects to shoot with the SL3 as I have found it challenging to get decent shots so far.
Great review, but I was wondering whenever people mention 'nifty fifty' it is usually the F1.8 version and not the f1.4. The price difference is also double. The f1.8 would cost around $115.00 US (+/- 10 US dollars). I have both lens and the F1.8 seem more sharper then the F1.4. But of-cause the F1.4 is faster and a bit better in low-light situation. Keep up the good work and wish you and your family good health.
@@blakemartin1700 yes it is 50mm but they were using the more expensive f1.4. If you been playing canon for a while you will know the nifty fifty is always the f1.8 version. Go check it out if you don't believe me. it is a bloody great value lens and something out perform the f1.4. I have both lens. The f1.8 verions 1 & 2. cheapest I seen at the time it was selling brand new $89.00 US. But was almost 9 years ago.

Hi old post to comment on but Which out of the two would you recommend for wildlife photography Costa Rican rainforest environment? And what lens would you recommend purchasing. The beef it of the m50 would be hot show for flash as well
I’ve used both now for years and they are still going strong - really up to you if you prefer mirrorless or DSLR - honestly the m50 is slightly more compact
For me, I recently got a T6i and an SL3. The T6i is a little heavier but not noticeable for me. I thought about the M50 but decided on the SL3. If I liked the smaller form-factor I would rather have a Sony.

I got the Canon eos m50 with its kit lens 2 weeks back majorly for videos but it takes amazing pictures. Currently investing to get an adaptor & the 50mm lens.
@@holo6883 Yes the Viltrox speedbooster magnifies the effective focal length by 0.71. So you multiply the crop factor of the M50 (1.6)*0.71 = 1.136 * focal length (:
Although saying that I've been using the Canon Beta Web app with the M50 and Zoom for the last couple of months and it's proving to be a bit of a game changer (:
How is the sl3 in low-light? What is the sweet spot to select a all in 1 lense for a beginner with low light pictures and videos and for taking pictures of moving targets like kids etc...
@@KaiCreative no i don't own any ef lenses. I'm just upgrading from my smartphone camera and wish to buy a good value for money all rounder camera and after the research I'm stuck between these two and i do not know why the m50 is still hyped over the the sl3 is it because of being mirrorless?
Joel Joboy which one did you get because I’m now more confused on which one to get... idk if I should get the M50, 7ti or the SL3..... I hear a lot of people raving about M50. But I know I’m going doing more photo but I also want to dabble in video. So I would ultimately want to get the most bang for my buck.
@@Angelcake1371 m50 is now outdated and it's better to wait for m50 mark ii and i also would suggest you not to get a dslr instead spend a little more on mirrorless soo dont go with sl3 too. I got myself a sony a6100 and i sooo happy with my decision i got it in a offer price and i like doing both Photos and Video so this works the best for me
Hello kai, just wanted to know if the 9 af point through the ovf really matters much as compared to m50 evf 143 af points?? Im someone who is switching from iphone to a specific camera! I am literally stuck in between these two beautiful cameras! Please help me if you can. My main purpose is photography(hobby) and congratulations on your 10k subs!!!!
atul ojha thanks Atul! It depends on what you are used to - I come from a DSLR background and am used to the optical viewfinder and setting focus points manually - but I’m getting used to the EVF of the M50 also both of these cameras have DPAF too which you can use to take photos (: if you want more versatility with video too I’d probably lean towards the M50.
Thanks kai! In india the price difference is not much! 30-40 u$. So i will probably go with m50. Later on i can buy the adapter and the lenses for dslr which are pretty cheap as compared to m mount lens!
Hey atul. I have the same dilemma. I'm having trouble choosing between the sl3 and the m50. The main gripe with the sl3 is 9 af points on the ovf. I thought i could solve it by just using the camera in live view mode, but then i heard this in another review that using it in live view mode would decrease the sl3's battery to a great extent. And the sl3's better battery life is the main reason why i wanted to go with the dslr in the first place!! I'm very confused. I would love to know what you chose and your thoughts on this please
Hi Kai, I stumbled upon your video and have seen quite a number of videos and I’m still struggling to pick my very first camera. I’m looking for a camera where I can snap pics like in one of your video where there’s a phone light written the word “hello” and also a good video for my tiktok. What would you recommend?
I can't wait and I buy the 250d for a good deal, its a little bit annoying thats only 9 focus dots it's limit my photos taking, it's so big dil? I'm only start now whit the photography world 😅
Both of these cameras are essentially the same except one is a DSLR and one is mirrorless - do you have any EF glass already? If so it might be better to go with the SL3 (:
Interesting vlog Kai. Owning an M50 mkI I have been disappointed by the news of the spec for the mkII in my search for a second camera body. While the M50 is very cute, portable & light (by the time added a small rig cage with extras it became less than light) I find it a bit fiddly to grip and may well end up with a 250D along side it in my camera bag. Good vlog & advice, I've subbed.
Hi Kai, absolutely love this video. Would you mind sharing the camera settings (ISO, Aperture, shutter speed) for the photos you took with the M50 camera between "3:42-4:48"? I'm looking mainly towards portraits and landscape shots with subjecta in them.
Hello Kai, i need your help. its been a week i have bought my very first camera M50. its my first camera. but i am not satisfied by its photography results or maybe it is my bad skill. should i grab an sl3 or stick to it. please let me know.
Great video Im having second thoughts about this camera because of the flash issue. Godox and what's the other brand ? ill have to spend another 150 to replace my current cheap flash :(
I’m having this issue too, and I’ve spent so much time trying to find something compatible. Someone says a flash works, then another person disagrees. Have you found anything by now that works? I really don’t want to have to spend so much on a canon one when I bought an entry level camera for a reason 😢
Let's be honest Kai if you're buying the M50 or SL3 or both you may never have the funds for Canon L glass. Sigma Art or Contemporary will get you close to L glass at a more affordable price. I have the Sigma C 16mm, 30mm & 56mm f1.4 lenses for the M50 and have my eye on some Sigma A lenses for the SL3 in particular the 18-35mm f1.8, & 70-200 f2.8. While I own a nifty fifty I wonder if I should stick with it or invest in the Canon EF 50mm f1.4 as the thought of attaching it to my speed booster on the M50 to achieve a sub f1.4 sounds appealing?
Hello, if I am a beginner and I want to enter the world of photography, but I also want to make dance videos (like, in motion). Which would be better for me?
Both would be equally good at this, what lens are you planning on getting? This will make the real difference here. I'm guessing a wide angle will be needed for your dance videos. Something to think about; If you want to get a EF mount or invest in M mount glass, or an adapter.

@@holo6883 Yes the Viltrox speedbooster magnifies the effective focal length by 0.71. So you multiply the crop factor of the M50 (1.6)*0.71 = 1.136 * focal length (:
Thank you for the comparison video! Much appreciated! Nice video btw
this Canon SL3/250D still good for beginner photography in 2024?
Clean HDMI output! Game over sl3 wins
Although saying that I've been using the Canon Beta Web app with the M50 and Zoom for the last couple of months and it's proving to be a bit of a game changer (:
How is the sl3 in low-light? What is the sweet spot to select a all in 1 lense for a beginner with low light pictures and videos and for taking pictures of moving targets like kids etc...
Amazing video sir.
I'm really confused between the M50 and SL3 can you help me choose one? Focusing both on Photo and Video which is best!?
Thanks Joel - do you already own any EF lenses? Might stick with the SL3 if you do 👌
@@KaiCreative no i don't own any ef lenses. I'm just upgrading from my smartphone camera and wish to buy a good value for money all rounder camera and after the research I'm stuck between these two and i do not know why the m50 is still hyped over the the sl3 is it because of being mirrorless?
Joel Joboy which one did you get because I’m now more confused on which one to get... idk if I should get the M50, 7ti or the SL3..... I hear a lot of people raving about M50. But I know I’m going doing more photo but I also want to dabble in video. So I would ultimately want to get the most bang for my buck.
@@Angelcake1371 m50 is now outdated and it's better to wait for m50 mark ii and i also would suggest you not to get a dslr instead spend a little more on mirrorless soo dont go with sl3 too.
I got myself a sony a6100 and i sooo happy with my decision i got it in a offer price and i like doing both Photos and Video so this works the best for me
Joel Joboy when is that going to be out?? Oooh how much is your Sony?
Hello kai, just wanted to know if the 9 af point through the ovf really matters much as compared to m50 evf 143 af points?? Im someone who is switching from iphone to a specific camera! I am literally stuck in between these two beautiful cameras! Please help me if you can. My main purpose is photography(hobby) and congratulations on your 10k subs!!!!
atul ojha thanks Atul! It depends on what you are used to - I come from a DSLR background and am used to the optical viewfinder and setting focus points manually - but I’m getting used to the EVF of the M50 also both of these cameras have DPAF too which you can use to take photos (: if you want more versatility with video too I’d probably lean towards the M50.
Thanks kai! In india the price difference is not much! 30-40 u$. So i will probably go with m50. Later on i can buy the adapter and the lenses for dslr which are pretty cheap as compared to m mount lens!
Good plan - that is the route that I would probably take on a budget 👌👌
Hey atul. I have the same dilemma. I'm having trouble choosing between the sl3 and the m50. The main gripe with the sl3 is 9 af points on the ovf.
I thought i could solve it by just using the camera in live view mode, but then i heard this in another review that using it in live view mode would decrease the sl3's battery to a great extent. And the sl3's better battery life is the main reason why i wanted to go with the dslr in the first place!!
I'm very confused. I would love to know what you chose and your thoughts on this please
Knowledge as usual. Congrats on keep growing 💪
Also love to see my favorite area of London in the video 😍
If you don't need 4K(I have a 4k camera and never use this option), why not consider the Sl2?
Thanks for you review. I have decided to buy SL3. Please tell about the extended memory it could support. Can I use 256 gb memory card?
I use a 256GB card in my SL3 and don’t have any issues 😃
@@KaiCreative Thanks Kai
5:19 the difference is remarkable!
Which one should I get for video filming?
Great question - I'm using the M50 more for vlogging and video these days with the speedbooster and Canon L glass.
Hi Kai, I stumbled upon your video and have seen quite a number of videos and I’m still struggling to pick my very first camera. I’m looking for a camera where I can snap pics like in one of your video where there’s a phone light written the word “hello” and also a good video for my tiktok. What would you recommend?
Any camera can do this ☝️ you just need to adjust the shutter speed 😊🙏🙏
I'm thinking to get the sl3 but i had a big debate between the sl3 and the m50
if you want a better battery life and don't mind about size then sl3
Plot twist: Canon EOS 250D is meant for photography, Canon M50 is for filming. Buy both😆😆
Apparently I’m the only one that thinks the comparison shots with the same lens the m50 is obviously sharper/cleaner with better color gradient
The 9 point viewfinder it's a big deal? Or it shouldn't be a problem for me? This is my biggest consideration
Good question - what are you looking to create mainly? Videos or photo?
@@KaiCreative photos
I can't wait and I buy the 250d for a good deal, its a little bit annoying thats only 9 focus dots it's limit my photos taking, it's so big dil? I'm only start now whit the photography world 😅
Helped me decide on the 250D! Thanks for that, and as far as the lenses go should I go for the 50mm f/1.4 or f/1.8 ! Thank you man
Which camera should i go for vlogging? 250D or m50? please reply. I make product reviews videos.
Both of these cameras are essentially the same except one is a DSLR and one is mirrorless - do you have any EF glass already? If so it might be better to go with the SL3 (:
@@KaiCreative thank you so much for your help. I have ef 50 mm lense. As I use canon 700D.
This really helped thank you!!
Glad it helped omycpm (:
Excellent work😁🌚
Thanks 😀
All the picture start from 7:50minute for M50 are edit or unedite (stok camera & lens) ?
Such a cute Angel. Please keep her in every video.
Haha - she is very cute! (:
What about canon m50 mark 2
Interesting vlog Kai. Owning an M50 mkI I have been disappointed by the news of the spec for the mkII in my search for a second camera body. While the M50 is very cute, portable & light (by the time added a small rig cage with extras it became less than light) I find it a bit fiddly to grip and may well end up with a 250D along side it in my camera bag. Good vlog & advice, I've subbed.
Which is better for photography?
Good question. As they are almost the same camera it depends on a few external factors ... the video explains what those are 😉😉
Hi Kai, absolutely love this video. Would you mind sharing the camera settings (ISO, Aperture, shutter speed) for the photos you took with the M50 camera between "3:42-4:48"? I'm looking mainly towards portraits and landscape shots with subjecta in them.
Hello Kai, i need your help. its been a week i have bought my very first camera M50. its my first camera. but i am not satisfied by its photography results or maybe it is my bad skill. should i grab an sl3 or stick to it. please let me know.
Thanks for the question Asba, what lens are you using and what settings?
The photos I’ve seen also don’t look great! Too digital !?
Great video Im having second thoughts about this camera because of the flash issue. Godox and what's the other brand ? ill have to spend another 150 to replace my current cheap flash :(
I’m having this issue too, and I’ve spent so much time trying to find something compatible. Someone says a flash works, then another person disagrees. Have you found anything by now that works? I really don’t want to have to spend so much on a canon one when I bought an entry level camera for a reason 😢
Does it work great for wedding videos for continuous shooting or does it stop at 30 minutes sl3 ?
Don't know if it's just me, but the M50 photos just look a little bit crispier.
Let's be honest Kai if you're buying the M50 or SL3 or both you may never have the funds for Canon L glass. Sigma Art or Contemporary will get you close to L glass at a more affordable price. I have the Sigma C 16mm, 30mm & 56mm f1.4 lenses for the M50 and have my eye on some Sigma A lenses for the SL3 in particular the 18-35mm f1.8, & 70-200 f2.8. While I own a nifty fifty I wonder if I should stick with it or invest in the Canon EF 50mm f1.4 as the thought of attaching it to my speed booster on the M50 to achieve a sub f1.4 sounds appealing?
Fujifilm xt200 or canon sl3 ? Which one is good ?
subscribed! Nice video!
Awesome, thank you!
Hello, if I am a beginner and I want to enter the world of photography, but I also want to make dance videos (like, in motion). Which would be better for me?
Both would be equally good at this, what lens are you planning on getting? This will make the real difference here. I'm guessing a wide angle will be needed for your dance videos. Something to think about; If you want to get a EF mount or invest in M mount glass, or an adapter.
