Notes on 26 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.
- 2Panasonic LUMIX S1II, High resolution pixel-shift mode: The full 96MP composite needs a tripod; handheld shooting caps at 48MP.
- 3Nikon Z6III, High resolution pixel-shift mode: Pixel-shift frames are merged on a computer in NX Studio, not in the camera.
- 4Nikon Z6III, In-body image stabilization: CIPA figure measured with the non-VR NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S at 120mm.
- 5Canon EOS R50, In-body image stabilization: No in-body stabilisation; shake control relies on lens IS or Movie Digital IS.
- 6Panasonic LUMIX S1II, Sensor readout speed: Measured by DPReview using the electronic shutter in 14-bit stills mode.
- 7Nikon Z6III, Continuous shooting (electronic): 60 fps is full-resolution JPEG only; Raw bursts top out at 20 fps, and 120 fps uses a DX crop.
- 8Nikon Z6III, Pre-burst capture duration: Pre-Release Capture records JPEG only.
- 9Canon EOS R50, Pre-burst capture duration: No pre-capture mode appears anywhere in Canon's official R50 specifications, so it is treated as absent.
- 10Panasonic LUMIX S1II, 4K max frame rate: Maximum 120 fps in 4K requires recording in MOV format at a 24.00Hz system frequency.
- 11Panasonic LUMIX S1II, 4K max frame rate (full width): 4K at 120fps requires an approximate 1.24x sensor crop; 60fps is the fastest at full sensor width.
- 12Canon 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.
- 13Canon EOS R50, Raw video recording: Canon lists only MP4 recording with H.264 or HEVC; no raw video is offered internally or externally.
- 14Canon EOS R50, Video bit depth: Standard Rec.709 recording is 8-bit; 10-bit output requires HDR PQ to be switched on.
- 15Canon EOS R50, Log profile support: No Canon Log profile; HDR PQ (a PQ gamma curve) is available instead, which is not a log curve.
- 16Nikon Z6III, Video dynamic range (log): Nikon states "13+ stops" for N-Log in H.265 10-bit at ISO 800.
- 17Canon EOS R50 V, Viewfinder resolution: The EOS R50 V has no built-in electronic viewfinder; framing is done on the rear screen only.
- 18Canon EOS R50 V, Battery life: Canon's CIPA rating uses the supplied LP-E17 battery with the LCD in power-saving mode.
- 19Canon EOS R50, Battery life: CIPA test with the supplied LP-E17 in power-saving mode; viewfinder shooting is rated at about 310 shots.
- 20Canon EOS R50, Weather sealing: Canon's own spec sheet also lists water/dust resistance as not provided, so treat the body as unsealed.
- 21Canon EOS R50, Weight: Black body with battery and card per CIPA; the white version is 376 g with battery and card.
- 22Canon EOS R50 V, USB charging & power delivery: USB charging requires a genuine (authenticated) Canon battery; unauthenticated batteries will not charge over USB.
- 23Nikon Z6III, USB charging & power delivery: In-camera charging and USB power need a USB-PD source such as Nikon's EH-8P.
- 24Canon EOS R50, USB charging & power delivery: USB-C charging works with the supplied LP-E17; unauthenticated third-party batteries may not charge.
- 25Canon EOS R50, Minimum operating temperature: Rated operating range is 0–40 °C at up to 85% humidity.
- 26Canon EOS R50, Headphone port: Canon's full port list covers USB-C, mic-in, HDMI micro and the shoe only — no headphone jack.
