I use to do 1/15th hand held in my film days! Easy. Hold lens one hand, body the other. prop yourself against something. Add that to image stabilization and bingo! For a little more, the R50 is a better pick than the R100. It also has some high range features in it. Don't forget, the choice of lens can drastically affect IQ. Too many people blame the body rather than the lens.
I prefer the R100 over the R50 because it has a mechanical shutter and flash hot shoe. The R50 is better for video and slightly smaller. The R100 body style is better for larger lenses..It is a case of small body segmentation by Canon. Sure, the lens you choose can make a big IQ difference.
@@TheVideoClipGuy Re hot shoe. True. It's weird what Canon has done. Because I have the RP with Speedlight flash and the R50 has a (limited) built in flash, the hot shoe was not an issue for me. Could be for others if the built in flash is not enough for them or they want to plug in other accessories. There is a converter but hard to get and not cheap. Re size. Once I added a silicon skin (cheap at about $USD10-15) to the R50, I got the same grip as the RP and R100. I haven't had any issues with the RF 100-400 (a 'big' lens) on the R50. I've always used one hand on body and one supporting the lens at the centre of gravity. If someone is going to spend money on a bigger / heavier lens than that, I think they are looking outside the 'budget body' range. Re focus system. The R50 has the better focusing system, especially for video. Some prefer the R10. I looked at that and chose the R50, regardless of price. Apparently the R100 was added as a 'starter teaser' for those who have never used DSLRs. Apparently phone users. My wife would prefer to use her iPhone to a cheap, low featured DSLR. many reasons. I see the R100 going the same way as the M50. Looks Ok, performs Ok, but sort of stuck in a limited segment of the market. At least there is a decent range of R series bodies and a range of RF-S / APS-Cs lenses are finally coming from Canon, Sigma and Tamron. The interesting thing about mirrorless bodies with any maker is that lenses can be made far cheaper. Eg the RF FF 24-240 and RF 100-400 are priced about the same as similar EF-S / APS-C lenses for mirrored. So buying FF for a mirrored APS-C is worth considering to future proof the move to a FF body later on.

I think the best deal of the 10 cameras is the A6400 if you can get it at a good price.
