Notes on 41 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. 2Sony a7 V, High resolution pixel-shift mode: No in-camera pixel shift; Sony's Extended Hi-Res merges burst frames later in its desktop software.
  3. 3Nikon Z6III, High resolution pixel-shift mode: Pixel-shift frames are merged on a computer in NX Studio, not in the camera.
  4. 4Nikon Z5IIC, Native ISO maximum: Expanded settings reach ISO 204800 (Hi 1.7); 64000 is the highest standard/native value.
  5. 5Sony a7 V, Native ISO maximum: Refers to standard still image shooting prior to ISO expansion.
  6. 6Nikon Z5IIC, In-body image stabilization: CIPA 2024 standard: up to 7.5 stops at the frame center, 6.0 stops at the periphery.
  7. 7Sony a7 V, In-body image stabilization: Measured at the center with an FE 50mm F1.2 GM lens mounted per CIPA 2024 standards with long exposure NR off.
  8. 8Nikon Z6III, In-body image stabilization: CIPA figure measured with the non-VR NIKKOR Z 24-120mm f/4 S at 120mm.
  9. 9Canon EOS R50, In-body image stabilization: No in-body stabilisation; shake control relies on lens IS or Movie Digital IS.
  10. 10Nikon Z5IIC, Aspect ratios: Native FX (36 x 24) stills are 3:2; 1:1 and 16:9 are selectable in-camera image areas.
  11. 11Nikon Z5IIC, Continuous shooting (mechanical): Spec table: extended burst is approx. 14 fps (15 fps with silent mode); rates apply to non-RAW quality.
  12. 12Sony a7 V, Continuous shooting (mechanical): Maximum continuous shooting speed achieved using mechanical shutter in Hi+ mode.
  13. 13Nikon Z5IIC, Continuous shooting (electronic): C30 is fixed at JPEG [L]/NORMAL; Nikon advises use of a recommended card.
  14. 14Sony a7 V, Continuous shooting (electronic): Maximum continuous shooting speed achieved using electronic shutter in Hi+ mode.
  15. 15Nikon 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.
  16. 16Nikon Z5IIC, Max mechanical shutter speed: The 1/8000 s figure is the overall shutter-speed range; the fastest mechanical speed is 1/4000 s.
  17. 17Nikon Z5IIC, Pre-burst capture duration: In High-Speed Frame Capture +, Pre-Release Capture is fixed at JPEG [L] NORMAL.
  18. 18Nikon Z6III, Pre-burst capture duration: Pre-Release Capture records JPEG only.
  19. 19Canon EOS R50, Pre-burst capture duration: No pre-capture mode appears anywhere in Canon's official R50 specifications, so it is treated as absent.
  20. 20Nikon Z5IIC, 4K max frame rate: 4K/60p is recorded in a DX (APS-C) crop.
  21. 21Sony a7 V, 4K max frame rate: Maximum 4K frame rate is available in XAVC HS 4K 4:2:0 10-bit mode.
  22. 22Nikon Z5IIC, 4K max frame rate (full width): 4K/60p uses a DX (APS-C) crop, so full-width 4K recording tops out at 30p.
  23. 23Sony a7 V, 4K max frame rate (full width): 4K 120p needs an APS-C/Super 35 crop; the full sensor width tops out at 4K 60p.
  24. 24Canon EOS R50, Raw video recording: Canon lists only MP4 recording with H.264 or HEVC; no raw video is offered internally or externally.
  25. 25Canon EOS R50, Video bit depth: Standard Rec.709 recording is 8-bit; 10-bit output requires HDR PQ to be switched on.
  26. 26Canon EOS R50, Log profile support: No Canon Log profile; HDR PQ (a PQ gamma curve) is available instead, which is not a log curve.
  27. 27Nikon Z6III, Video dynamic range (log): Nikon states "13+ stops" for N-Log in H.265 10-bit at ISO 800.
  28. 28Sony a7 V, Viewfinder magnification: Measured with a 50mm lens focused at infinity at -1 m⁻¹.
  29. 29Nikon Z5IIC, Battery life: Approx. 390 shots per charge with [Energy saving (photo mode)] set to ON.
  30. 30Sony a7 V, Battery life: Measured using the LCD monitor under standard CIPA test conditions.
  31. 31Canon EOS R50, Battery life: CIPA test with the supplied LP-E17 in power-saving mode; viewfinder shooting is rated at about 310 shots.
  32. 32Nikon Z5IIC, Weather sealing: Complete dust- and drip-resistant performance is not guaranteed in all situations or conditions.
  33. 33Canon EOS R50, Weather sealing: Canon's own spec sheet also lists water/dust resistance as not provided, so treat the body as unsealed.
  34. 34Nikon Z5IIC, Weight: 620 g is with battery and memory card; the body alone weighs approx. 538 g.
  35. 35Canon EOS R50, Weight: Black body with battery and card per CIPA; the white version is 376 g with battery and card.
  36. 36Sony a7 V, Depth: Overall maximum depth including the viewfinder eyepiece is 82.4 mm.
  37. 37Nikon Z6III, USB charging & power delivery: In-camera charging and USB power need a USB-PD source such as Nikon's EH-8P.
  38. 38Canon EOS R50, USB charging & power delivery: USB-C charging works with the supplied LP-E17; unauthenticated third-party batteries may not charge.
  39. 39Canon EOS R50, Minimum operating temperature: Rated operating range is 0–40 °C at up to 85% humidity.
  40. 40Nikon Z5IIC, Headphone port: Shared 3.5 mm output doubles as remote release; set its function to headphones for monitoring.
  41. 41Canon EOS R50, Headphone port: Canon's full port list covers USB-C, mic-in, HDMI micro and the shoe only — no headphone jack.
