Notes on 15 values — test conditions and caveats
- 1Canon EOS R50, Launch price: US RRP at launch as listed by Trusted Reviews; the page does not state whether it is body-only.
- 2Nikon Z5II, High resolution pixel-shift mode: Pixel-shift composite raises resolution to 96MP, but images must be combined in NX Studio on a computer.
- 3Canon EOS R50, In-body image stabilization: No in-body stabilisation; shake control relies on lens IS or Movie Digital IS.
- 4Canon EOS R5 Mark II, Pre-burst capture duration: Up to 15 shots can be buffered before you fully press the shutter, which is about half a second at 30 fps.
- 5Canon EOS R50, Pre-burst capture duration: No pre-capture mode appears anywhere in Canon's official R50 specifications, so it is treated as absent.
- 6Canon EOS R5 Mark II, Video codecs: Internal codecs are XF-HEVC S, XF-AVC S and H.264 MP4; ProRes RAW is recorded via HDMI to an external recorder.
- 7Canon EOS R50, Raw video recording: Canon lists only MP4 recording with H.264 or HEVC; no raw video is offered internally or externally.
- 8Canon EOS R50, Video bit depth: Standard Rec.709 recording is 8-bit; 10-bit output requires HDR PQ to be switched on.
- 9Canon EOS R50, Log profile support: No Canon Log profile; HDR PQ (a PQ gamma curve) is available instead, which is not a log curve.
- 10Canon EOS R50, Battery life: CIPA test with the supplied LP-E17 in power-saving mode; viewfinder shooting is rated at about 310 shots.
- 11Canon EOS R50, Weather sealing: Canon's own spec sheet also lists water/dust resistance as not provided, so treat the body as unsealed.
- 12Canon EOS R50, Weight: Black body with battery and card per CIPA; the white version is 376 g with battery and card.
- 13Canon EOS R50, USB charging & power delivery: USB-C charging works with the supplied LP-E17; unauthenticated third-party batteries may not charge.
- 14Canon EOS R50, Minimum operating temperature: Rated operating range is 0–40 °C at up to 85% humidity.
- 15Canon EOS R50, Headphone port: Canon's full port list covers USB-C, mic-in, HDMI micro and the shoe only — no headphone jack.
