Notes on 31 values — test conditions and caveats
  1. 1Canon EOS R50, Launch price: US RRP at launch as listed by Trusted Reviews; the page does not state whether it is body-only.
  2. 2Nikon Z 30, Sensor format: DX format is Nikon's name for its APS-C-size sensor (23.5 x 15.7 mm).
  3. 3Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Native ISO maximum: ISO 204800 (H) is an expanded setting; the native range tops out at ISO 102400.
  4. 4Nikon Z 30, Native ISO maximum: Settings above ISO 51200 (102400, 204800) are expanded, not native.
  5. 5Nikon Z9, In-body image stabilization: The 6.0-stop rating requires Synchro VR, combining in-body 5-axis VR with 2-axis lens VR on compatible lenses.
  6. 6Canon EOS R50, In-body image stabilization: No in-body stabilisation; shake control relies on lens IS or Movie Digital IS.
  7. 7Canon EOS R6 Mark II, In-body image stabilization: The 8-stop rating combines lens optical IS with in-body IS; results vary by lens.
  8. 8Nikon Z 30, Aspect ratios: Native DX ratio is 3:2; 1:1 and 16:9 are in-camera crop modes.
  9. 9Nikon Z 30, Continuous shooting (mechanical): Nikon's in-house measured maximum; the rate is approximate.
  10. 10Nikon Z9, Pre-burst capture duration: Pre-Release Capture is only available in the C30 and C120 high-speed frame capture modes.
  11. 11Canon EOS R50, Pre-burst capture duration: No pre-capture mode appears anywhere in Canon's official R50 specifications, so it is treated as absent.
  12. 12Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Pre-burst capture duration: Pre-release capture works in RAW burst mode and buffers up to 0.5s of action before full shutter press.
  13. 13Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Video codecs: Movies record H.264 by default; H.265/HEVC is used when Canon Log 3 or HDR PQ is enabled.
  14. 14Canon EOS R50, Raw video recording: Canon lists only MP4 recording with H.264 or HEVC; no raw video is offered internally or externally.
  15. 15Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Raw video recording: 6K ProRes RAW requires an external Atomos Ninja V+ recorder connected over HDMI.
  16. 16Canon EOS R50, Video bit depth: Standard Rec.709 recording is 8-bit; 10-bit output requires HDR PQ to be switched on.
  17. 17Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Video bit depth: Standard profiles record 8-bit 4:2:0; 10-bit 4:2:2 requires Canon Log 3 or HDR PQ.
  18. 18Canon EOS R50, Log profile support: No Canon Log profile; HDR PQ (a PQ gamma curve) is available instead, which is not a log curve.
  19. 19Nikon Z 30, Viewfinder resolution: The Z 30 has no electronic viewfinder; compose on the rear LCD.
  20. 20Canon EOS R50, Battery life: CIPA test with the supplied LP-E17 in power-saving mode; viewfinder shooting is rated at about 310 shots.
  21. 21Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Battery life: 760 shots is the CIPA power-saving rating with the rear LCD; Canon's smooth-mode rating is 580 shots.
  22. 22Nikon Z 30, Battery life: Figure is for the EN-EL25 battery; shot count differs with EN-EL25a.
  23. 23Canon EOS R50, Weather sealing: Canon's own spec sheet also lists water/dust resistance as not provided, so treat the body as unsealed.
  24. 24Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Weather sealing: Sealed dust- and water-resistant build, not IP-rated; Canon cautions ingress cannot be fully prevented.
  25. 25Canon EOS R50, Weight: Black body with battery and card per CIPA; the white version is 376 g with battery and card.
  26. 26Canon EOS R50, USB charging & power delivery: USB-C charging works with the supplied LP-E17; unauthenticated third-party batteries may not charge.
  27. 27Canon EOS R6 Mark II, USB charging & power delivery: In-body USB charging and power supply require Canon's optional PD-E1 USB power adapter.
  28. 28Nikon Z 30, USB charging & power delivery: In-camera USB charging/power needs Nikon's optional EH-7P or EH-8P adapter.
  29. 29Canon EOS R50, Minimum operating temperature: Rated operating range is 0–40 °C at up to 85% humidity.
  30. 30Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Minimum operating temperature: Canon's product manual rates 0–40°C; regional Canon spec sheets list a 2°C minimum.
  31. 31Canon EOS R50, Headphone port: Canon's full port list covers USB-C, mic-in, HDMI micro and the shoe only — no headphone jack.
