Notes on 5 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1Nikon Z5II, High resolution pixel-shift mode: Pixel-shift composite raises resolution to 96MP, but images must be combined in NX Studio on a computer.
  2. 2Canon EOS R50 V, 4K max frame rate (full width): Full-width 4K tops out at 29.97 fps; 4K 50p/60p uses a crop to 64% of the sensor's horizontal area.
  3. 3Canon EOS R50 V, Viewfinder resolution: The EOS R50 V has no built-in electronic viewfinder; framing is done on the rear screen only.
  4. 4Canon EOS R50 V, Battery life: Canon's CIPA rating uses the supplied LP-E17 battery with the LCD in power-saving mode.
  5. 5Canon EOS R50 V, USB charging & power delivery: USB charging requires a genuine (authenticated) Canon battery; unauthenticated batteries will not charge over USB.
