Correction, thanks to Vladimir Shvarts: I misspoke when I said the SL2/200d has 720p @ 120fps. That feature is only available on the M50. What's up everyone?! I hope this comparison of the Canon M50 and SL2 + sample footage and images is helpful. Did you like it? I love these cameras and think they are outstanding entry level options for both photography and video. Let me know what you think!! Was there too much detail? Not enough? What did you like, and also, what did you not like? What would you like to see more of? Would love to know what you think, good or bad. I am grateful in advance 🙏
I’m shock! You read my mind. A few hours ago I watched a video comparing the two because I’m planning to order the m50 tomorrow and was like I wish he had a video comparing the two and look you uploaded the video. Keep up the good work. The information you share is very helpful plus I think this video answers the last question I asked you. Thank you.
eh, it would have been more helpful if you actually vlogged with both and showed the differences. Don't get me wrong super helpful video with all the technical differences (i'm subscribed, not hating), but the thing you're missing is a real world example. Nobody is making videos of stationary objects. I've used both and these are the main differences: M50 The M50 has that digital stabilization which is JUST OK, it's good enough to where you can walk and talk into the camera or walk and show what a landscape is like - (if you're a travel vlogger this important) and have the video be somewhat stable. The SL2 however is mess. It's super shaky, you really can't walk and talk with that camera. Also the M50, while more stable it crops in a lot with stabilization on. So it's harder to get a wide angle look and have it be smooth and stable. SL2 The SL2 has higher quality video. It's looks like an 80D. The M50 looks like an Iphone. Both are good, just the SL2 is better. It also native access to all those amazing lenses like the 50mm and the 10-8mm. Making the Sl2 so affordable for the quality you get. Conclusion The M50 is smaller and the lenses are smaller which is great - It's the superior on the go travel camera. But the speed booster everyone talks about is expensive. People don't realize this. They think it's like a cheap adapter you can get at Walmart :) It's not. Also, it makes the M50 bigger, the point of the M50 is to be small. If you're doing sit down, talk into the camera videos, get the Sl2. If you want higher quality video, get the Sl2. If you want the most bang for your buck, get the Sl2. If you want something small, capable and somewhat stable - particularly if you're doing a lot of on the go, outdoor recording get the M50. I'm assuming anyone reading this, that you're a beginner. I ended up buying the SL2.
Thanks David, I super appreciate you taking the time to leave such thoughtful feedback. I agree with your points. If someone is willing to give up a few things (headphone jack, weather sealing, etc) the sl2 is a great 80d alternative. I did another video showing the image quality comparison. The reason for shooting static objects in that video is to keep the subject and lighting identical. Glad to have you as a contributing member of this community 🙏🏻
But what about for traveling? I think the SL2 is too bulky. :( Can we just put all the good stuff that SL2 is and put it in M50's more stylish and compact body? 😂
Ok, so first, I would consider getting a kit lens because I don't know your setup and what shooting conditions you have. Check out this video and see if it makes sense:th-cam.com/video/z-x-d-K9Jfw/w-d-xo.html then I would look at these th-cam.com/video/UUPqjPs5Iw8/w-d-xo.html Let me know if you have any questions. Great job on building your channel!
Buy it nice, or buy it twice. Great break down of the two cameras. Thank you. For me I’m stocked with EF lenses so it’s an easy choice for me, SL2 all the way baby! Lol.
Sagi, this is one of the best/most detailed comparisons I've seen on these two cameras! I'm still shooting with both, but I really love the M50. Keep up the great work👍🏾
Thanks so much Timeka. I think that without the adapter I like the SL2. With the adapter M50. Either way, they are both an amazing value. Thanks for watching!
That 70-200 looked gigantic on the sl2 lol. Great video! I plan on getting the sl3 since it incorporates the digic 8 and 4k video, closing the gap even more. I was already leaning toward the sl2 because I don’t have to pay 150 bucks for an adapter for my current lenses. With these changes it’s a clear choice for me. Keep the great work up, you got a sub from me :)
This by far is one of the best camera comparison videos I've watched while I'm doing some research for purchasing my first "real" camera! You cover a lot of information while speaking clearly and slowly in language I can understand. I look forward to enjoying more of your videos. TY.
@@TechGearTalk , I think I've narrowed it down to the Canon M50 and the Panasonic Lumix GX 850 as far as price and size they are what I'm looking for. The flip screen on the Lumix is on top though and no audio unless you use an audio recorder. Can you give any input? My needs are lightweight, affordable, pictures and vlogging. Thank you, I value your opinion.☺
M50. Audio is so important, so why force yourself to sync it every time? Af is better on the M50 also. Image quality is great on both. Overall user experience is better on the canon imo
Damn, your reviews are really great, I'm really picky when subscribing so it doe not mess up my feed, but your content is just one of the best in terms of explaining the details.. Keep it up man!!!! Cheers from Manila!
I literally wanted you to review these by the time I narrowed down to these cameras. So I had to hit the like button before I watched. YT algo and you came through for the boy. Now back to the vid.
I just stumbled upon your channel and it couldn't have come at a better time. I am looking to step up my picture game for my blog and have landed on these 2 particular cameras. Thank you for breaking things down in a way that a novice understands.
@@TechGearTalk Your video that showcased the photo comparison between the Canon M50 & the SL2 was super helpful and I think based on that, I'm going to go with the SL2! I don't really need 4k video, though it's nice, and I like the size and flexibility that the SL2 gives as far as lens compatibility. Thank you again! I feel like I did so much fruitless research before stumbling upon your channel, and I'm thrilled to have found someone that ACTUALLY answers the normal/everyday questions that someone like me (a true novice) has!
What an awesome video! I love the footage and the amount of details you’ve provided, it was really helpful! And very interesting too! Thanks for the comparison!
Man, how come you are only 14k subs while you joined youtube in 2010?? Damn on those google algorithms, you content is the BEST and you're the G.O.A.T. But i'm sure you will climb to the top so fast! Keep up the amazing work!
I joined YT in 2010 but I only hosted a few videos of my saltwater reef tank. I started this about 2 years ago and I was doing some testing to see what works and now I'm implementing. Thank you so much for the encouraging words - I'm super grateful!
I don't have the G7XMKII anymore so I can't do that. The image quality will be better on the M50, plus it will have a fully articulating screen, audio input, better autofocus. Hope this helps.
What a great video! Thank you so much! As someone who is fairly new to the youtube world with my own channel I can appreciate a good youtuber. Nice work! Now I have to choose between the two. I have experience with DSLR and appreciate still photography but also need something to help me step up production quality of my youtube channel. I was all in with the M50 before I watched this video. I guess I have a little more research to do. Thanks again!
Thanks so much. I did it for a few reasons. First, lighting, it was challenging to keep consistent. Second, audio. Those are noise dampening. I may still bring the windows back when it’s snowing and overcast! Thanks for watching and being part of the community.
I had Lot of confusion to choose between these two.... I liked the Sl2 very much but the 4k video recording was the feature which I got interested when I compared these two...After watching your video I understood that why should I record in 4k..I just own a 4gb ram old pc which is slower to load Photoshop itself...And Iam not a vlogger or videographer to shoot in 4k..... You made me realised to choose the best for my usage... Thanks a lot for that... Iam viewing video from Ur channel for first time...And the first Impression was good.. great quality video...Gonna hit the subscribe button 😘 Hi from Kerala,India
I'm very glad that the video was able to clear up some confusion for you, and that you realized that you don't need 4k. If you have any questions, let me know and I'll try to help. Appreciate the support!
Your R great....Huge Respect for your simplicity... Thanks for replying...I read so many comments in Ur video and I got surprised that u responded for all of them ...Great job..keep it up..I will definitely contact u I have any doubts..Surely I will refer this channel to all of my friends... Thank u
Great review, I'm trying to find a camera to upgrade from my phone. I think that I'm leaning toward the M50 but the only problem is the battery life. You deserve more subscribers ! Keep doing this nice work
Love your videos! It’s my first time buying a camera & I’m interested in landscape & portraits photography. Which camera would you suggest? Thank you!!
That's awesome to hear, congrats!! Check out this follow up video: th-cam.com/video/kmy4Oq3YbMU/w-d-xo.html and this tutorial: th-cam.com/video/RDs-Zzb0pmE/w-d-xo.html Hope they are helpful.
Thanks for the review. All the extra stuff in the M50 sounded good.....until I heard the battery only gives 1/3 of what the SL2 gives and in my mind the score dropped quickly vs the SL2. But honestly, the shape and feel of the SL2 is much better. The M50 looks like a bridge camera at best.
I have both. I just bought the M50 a few days ago. I started really seeing the limitations of the SL2, especially the audio focus. I saw the sale on the M50 and I jumped on it. Just waiting on my Viltrox speed booster so I can use my other lenses and I ordered a Sigma 16mm. I can't wait for that.
Hi you contacted me on Instagram i've just watched some of the video and my favourite would probably be the M50 because i'm more of a video recorder than photographer also the background is great the quality is amazing and keep up the good work. You've got a new sub :)
I´ve learned so much from you. Great channel. I bought an M50, and am thinking of buying another one. This way I´ll have the 2 x M50´s, and my Sony video recorder for doing drum videos. I´m also planning on doing live audio/video recording for bands in my studio. Anyway, keep up the great work.
Great review and excellent presentation. I have a Panasonic G85 but miss my old Cannon so have been considering a new one. I feel like my g85 is good enough for any videoing that I do but want a better autofocus for photography. Nothing super heavy though...so this SL2 appeals to me. Thanks for the review!
Hey man! Thanks for this video! just what i needed. I got a 80d and use it for my business.. it does the job well, but it can get heavy if i wanna use it for some fun stuff and just carry it around. But the battery life is epic! so when you mention the features on the SL2, i think i gotta go with that one... and for that price.. wow!
@@TechGearTalk Hey again. Maybe I missed this in the review, but can i see the sound levels on the display, when i shoot video on the SL2? I use it quite a lot on my 80d, so just wanted to be sure. Thanks
I recently and starting to get into photography but want to step up from taking photos on my phone, I plan to use a camera mostly for when I travel. Your video is great but i still can’t decide if the M50 is most suitable for me.
Tech Gear Talk mainly the price difference, battery life and having the purchase the lens adapter for the M50. I do love the size of the M50 as I’ll be doing alot of travelling with my camera. I don’t think i’ll be doing much recording or sports photography as I just want to learn the basics for now, other then that the M50’s features seem so much better then the SL2. Saying that they both seem like great beginner cameras, but I just can’t decide. Thankyou for responding!
Keep in mind that with the adapter, you’re losing some of the portability of the m50 because essentially the adapter adds the distance needed for the mirror in the sl2. Have you seen both in really life? Is it possible for you to hold both at a store?
I want to buy camera dslr, please make video sl2 footage 1080p shoot in garden in 3 minute and people talking and walking in garden , and video m50 footage shoot 1080p in garden in 3 minute , for short movie youtube . So we can see video sample in 3 minute and we can choose which video sample is good for us, Thank you
I am edging towards the Canon SL2 since I'm still not truly sold on the mirrorless cameras as I don't fully understand them yet. Hope this turns out fine. Fingers crossed.
Hello. It's been many years since the 80D/77D came out, but I'm asking myself the same question. Now I have a Canon 600D, and I no longer lack its capabilities (of course 😅). I choose between 77D and M50. My main task is to shoot photos (I want to shoot commercials: portraits, custom family scenes, and some street photography). The video is most likely secondary (although I don’t know for sure). There is no money for a full frame yet. What do you recommend from these two devices? The bad ergonomics of the M50 and the lack of control buttons, as it is on the 77D, scares me. However, they tell me from everywhere: "2023, buy a mirrorless camera (they mean M50)" I want to point out that I am not going to invest in EF-M lenses. I have a fleet of EF/EF-s. What can you advise me? What can you advise me?
Trying to buy my first camera and really confused if i should buy m50 or 200d wanna use it mainly for street photography and sometimes normal videography
Good evening , thank you , thank you ones again for such a great review, it convince me , that I should buy another Canon M50’ and 'yes' I did. We had a brilliant family session at theThomson Bay , Natal, South Africa yesterday with two Canon M50's and both of us have been so satisfied with then late evening download of the pictures and video. So, just in the one sentence - I am very grateful to You., today. Ciao. Ania
Great video! I am in the market for a new apsc camera after selling my rx100iv (found it to be too small). Having hard time choosing between m50, sl2 and fuji xt100. If only the canons had USB charging it would have made it much simpler. Do you think that switching from rx100 to sl2 will be "hard"? (In therms of focus thru the viewfinder)
Thanks! Check this out for m50 power options th-cam.com/video/TOpsG_jlEbU/w-d-xo.html As far as focus, you can just use the viewfinder to focus with the touchscreen ( on both m50 and sl2) Hope that helps
if you want to start a podcast and want to use multiple cameras, lets say at least 3, full frame, and camera A and B, should you buy all 3 of the same? Or can you mix and match? If mix and match, which one should you use for full frame? Thanks for your help in advance!
Hi. I'll be shooting nature and landscape on long journeys and adventure running. So I will be carrying the camera while running and in all extreme conditions Which of these two cameras would you recommend, please? Thank you.
Awesome video man. Super informative. Im going to be using the camera mostly for videography and vlogging so im def going with the m50. Cant wait to get started. In your opinion what would be the best gimbal for the money? Im not to educated on them. I want some buttery smooth video but also not burn a hole in my wallet if i dont have to or over spend. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words. The M50 is a great camera, you won't be disappointed. As far as a gimbal, there are a lot of good options. Check out Moza, Zhiyun and the DJI Ronin S (there is now an Essentials Package): th-cam.com/video/xuzI4Rxmkh8/w-d-xo.html Let me know if you have any questions.
Glad you liked the video. I would probably choose the M50 because the viewfinder is better and shows you the actual exposure. Hope that helps and welcome to the channel!
Thanks so much Scott!! Not THAT'S a great question. Let me think it out and I'll shoot a video about it. Appreciate the suggestion! Which camera do you like better so far?
awesome video! thank you, this has helped me a lot. Am I doing well in buying the Sl2 for dance film?? your opinion would be very helpful on making my final decision. thanks again!
Both will give you essentially the same image quality. The m50 is smaller and more portable, and now has these lenses available: th-cam.com/video/uORT1dfeS0M/w-d-xo.html The SL2 is a little bigger, and you can use all the canon lenses without needing an adapter (although you can use those lenses with the M50 and adapter). I hope that helps.
I'm a gymnastics coach and I want to start making "life inside the gym" videos with action shots of my students and also interviews with them. 4k would be very nice, but isn't the most important thing to me. High frame rates are more important I feel. Slow motion is also crucial to what I want. For what I want to do, which camera would you recommend?
Although I normally recommend the SL2 or the M50 (either would work great for you) because they are so easy to use, have great image quality and the autofocus is amazing. I would suggest you look at the Sony a6400. Sony is harder and more confusing to look, but if you need slow motion (120 frames per second), Canon doesn't offer that in a consumer camera yet. Does that make sense?
Your videos are fantastic. I'm stuck with a Sony a7rII and suddenly decided I want to vlog. I'm now having to buy an entry-level camera just so I can see my own face to do the vlogging. Never have I been in such an annoying predicament. I have this fantastic kit, but no way to use it reliably.
You could always get an external monitor and mount it on top. But that gets clunky. I’m not sure why Sony isn’t doing anything about it. The new a6400 at least has a flip screen.
Thanks so much for your prompt response @@TechGearTalk. I just had a quick look at that a6400 and would you believe it only flips up! So you get a selfie mode, but it's 100% obstructed by an external microphone - which is 100% necessary for vlogging etc. It doesn't flip to the side. I'm really dumbfounded by that design decision. I might be forced to buy into another ecosystem just to vlog. Would you recommend the EOS200D or the M50? because that's the two I'm aiming for. I do love the color science with Cannon. There's about a $100 price difference between them both here in Australia. Much appreciated!
You're very welcome. Depends on how small you want it to be. M50 with ef-m lenses is a super small setup. But if you're adding the adapter and using EF or EF-S lenses, you're adding to the size. I have both and they work great for me.
Hi! i want to ask about your opinion abt this. recently i'm a beginner photo/viceographer and do some small paid project with my EOS M. but i have a confidence problem with this camera due to its small and compact size that make me feel "not professional enough" to do the work. so right now i'm confused between this sl2 and m50 (my price range). actually i'm a bit leaning towards m50 due to its capability to record at 120fps eventho its only 720p, its okay for me cz upscale it to 1080 in post is still usable. and its possibilities to use a speed booster to have a "full frame" camera experience. but as you know, having a mirrorless again would definitely back to my previous problem with EOS M. soo maybe SL2 may be better. but M50 pros as i mentioned above are sooo tempting for me. could you give me your point of view on this? Many thanks!
I totally understand about the appearance of the camera and how it doesn’t “look professional”. The truth is, it’s not designed as a professional tool. But what’s most important to the client is the results. No one cares what camera you use if you do good work. Just like no one cares if you use a RED camera, if the results are terrible. You’ve already done paid work, was it a problem?
Outstanding comparison between the M50 and SL2. Does the M50 still maintain its smaller size benefit over the SL2 when using an adapter on the M50 for EF/EF-S lenses? I currently own the SL2 (which i like) but I am always looking for smaller solutions, especially when traveling with kids . I am curious to see the size difference between these two cameras with the same lens mounted on both. Also Does the M50 balance well with a speed lite flash mounted? Any input is appreciated, especially since there are no stores in my area have either on display to compare. Awsome video. Thanks.
Thanks Greg. The M50 is still somewhat smaller than the SL2 with the adapter. But of course, it's less significant. The adapter is designed to move EF/EF-S lenses to the same distance away from the censor as they would be on the SL2. If I already had the SL2 and was not going to use EF-M lenses, I'm not sure I would switch to the M50. If you were going to go with EF-M lenses, then you've got a much smaller setup. I hope this helps.
Thanks for your response. If I went with the M50, I would probably get the ef-m 11-22 and the ef-m 22 f2 lenses and adapt my other Ef-s lenses. When you factor the cost of the adapter and the better battery life of the SL2, the SL2 may be the better for me to stick with the SL2 for now. I estimate I would adapt lenses at least 50% of the time. Thanks again for your insight .
You're very welcome. I think it's a good way to look at it. The 22 f/2 is a great lens. But if you're adding the adapter and the ef-s lenses, and the reason for switching is the size, I would rather have you save your money and invest in better glass.
I have the Canon sl2. Is it worth having Both? I would like to stream on Twitch and TH-cam and would like to have a dedicated camera for that. Thanks again for a great video.
Hi Ray, I replied in the private thread. I think you're going to want a camera with a clean HDMI output for livestreaming. Even though the free app works, it's not at full resolution.
I can’t decide! If only the M50 had better battery life. Will they ever upgrade the battery? Also, is the M50 battery so bad that it can’t work for video? Trying to get an idea of how long it will last.
The battery on the M50 is not great, but you can either get another battery or get a continuous power source. Hasn't been an issue for me (but I have 2 batteries). Are you shooting on the go or in a location with power?
Thanks. That’s only if you’re using the the focus points in the viewfinder of the SL2. If you’re using live view, then you’re using the dual pixel autofocus and can choose a focus point on almost the entire sensor.
Which is better for video I have the rebel SL2 but I feel my video are not as clear that’s why I won’t a new camera I feel the cannon M50 is much better am I just tripping because I don’t know how to use it or am I right?
Hi. I have not seen noticeable image quality difference between the two (see here: th-cam.com/video/XEhsU-aEX04/w-d-xo.html). Here is my cinematic tutorial for the SL2: th-cam.com/video/RDs-Zzb0pmE/w-d-xo.html
I want to buy a camera but I can’t decide what to choose between m50 or sl2. Im a literally a beginner at photography and cameras any advice whom to choose between this two
Some are shot in 4K. For the most part, there is no significant difference for youtube. If I showed them to you side by side, you'd say that the 4K footage is sharper and has more details, but if I just showed you a good 1080P video, the average person isn't going to ever think about it. There are other advantages of shooting in 4k (even if you edit in 1080p) but there are also drawbacks. For me, it's not something that I worry about. I hope this helps.
Hello sir i started vlogging rightnow but i love 💗 photography my 1st choice is and dream DSLR is 200D what do you think? Witch one can i get and compatible to my PHOTOGRAPHY and VLOGGING? Watching From south korea but im a FILIPINO. THANK YOU SIR🥰

You, sir, are the only person in this planet who made me finally understand the difference between a DSLR and a mirrorless camera *salute* *bow*
Hi Charlin - I'm so happy that the video was helpful and that you were able to learn something from it. Let me know if you have any questions!
Charlin Samson me too
same here
eh, it would have been more helpful if you actually vlogged with both and showed the differences. Don't get me wrong super helpful video with all the technical differences (i'm subscribed, not hating), but the thing you're missing is a real world example. Nobody is making videos of stationary objects.
I've used both and these are the main differences:
M50
The M50 has that digital stabilization which is JUST OK, it's good enough to where you can walk and talk into the camera or walk and show what a landscape is like - (if you're a travel vlogger this important) and have the video be somewhat stable. The SL2 however is mess. It's super shaky, you really can't walk and talk with that camera.
Also the M50, while more stable it crops in a lot with stabilization on. So it's harder to get a wide angle look and have it be smooth and stable.
SL2
The SL2 has higher quality video. It's looks like an 80D. The M50 looks like an Iphone. Both are good, just the SL2 is better. It also native access to all those amazing lenses like the 50mm and the 10-8mm. Making the Sl2 so affordable for the quality you get.
Conclusion
The M50 is smaller and the lenses are smaller which is great - It's the superior on the go travel camera. But the speed booster everyone talks about is expensive. People don't realize this. They think it's like a cheap adapter you can get at Walmart :) It's not. Also, it makes the M50 bigger, the point of the M50 is to be small.
If you're doing sit down, talk into the camera videos, get the Sl2. If you want higher quality video, get the Sl2. If you want the most bang for your buck, get the Sl2. If you want something small, capable and somewhat stable - particularly if you're doing a lot of on the go, outdoor recording get the M50.
I'm assuming anyone reading this, that you're a beginner. I ended up buying the SL2.
Thanks David, I super appreciate you taking the time to leave such thoughtful feedback.
I agree with your points. If someone is willing to give up a few things (headphone jack, weather sealing, etc) the sl2 is a great 80d alternative. I did another video showing the image quality comparison. The reason for shooting static objects in that video is to keep the subject and lighting identical.
Glad to have you as a contributing member of this community 🙏🏻
Helpful comment David!
But what about for traveling? I think the SL2 is too bulky. :(
Can we just put all the good stuff that SL2 is and put it in M50's more stylish and compact body? 😂
They sort of did. Here: th-cam.com/video/Nir8pfvfdFI/w-d-xo.html
@@TechGearTalk thanks for the link. I didn't know about the M6! Watching now. :)
Which will be the best lens to use with the 200d for shooting unboxing videos & for face cam videos with a blurry background? Btw nice video
Do you already have the camera and the kit lens?
Tech Gear Talk no brother don’t have the camera or the lens. planning to buy one.
Ok, so first, I would consider getting a kit lens because I don't know your setup and what shooting conditions you have. Check out this video and see if it makes sense:th-cam.com/video/z-x-d-K9Jfw/w-d-xo.html then I would look at these th-cam.com/video/UUPqjPs5Iw8/w-d-xo.html Let me know if you have any questions.
Great job on building your channel!
What a journey
Buy it nice, or buy it twice. Great break down of the two cameras. Thank you. For me I’m stocked with EF lenses so it’s an easy choice for me, SL2 all the way baby! Lol.
That makes sense to me Tim! Appreciate the kind words and thank you for joining the channel!
Sagi, this is one of the best/most detailed comparisons I've seen on these two cameras! I'm still shooting with both, but I really love the M50. Keep up the great work👍🏾
Thanks so much Timeka. I think that without the adapter I like the SL2. With the adapter M50.
Either way, they are both an amazing value. Thanks for watching!
That 70-200 looked gigantic on the sl2 lol. Great video! I plan on getting the sl3 since it incorporates the digic 8 and 4k video, closing the gap even more. I was already leaning toward the sl2 because I don’t have to pay 150 bucks for an adapter for my current lenses. With these changes it’s a clear choice for me. Keep the great work up, you got a sub from me :)
I know right, it dwarfs it 😂🤣
I’ve already ordered the sl3, super excited! Appreciate the kind words and support!! 🙏🏻
This is the BEST comparison video of any tech I've ever seen. Thank you!
Oh wow... thank you so much - that is so kind of you to say. I'm really glad it was helpful!
@@TechGearTalk You deserve a many thanks :) You're welcome btw :)
Well, I'm having a very stressful day, so thank you for making me smile 🙏
Really? Wow! Im glad to hear that Im one of the reason to make you smile, thanks 🤗
🙂
2 years and I’m on my way to buy the a camera. Thanks for the recommend
there is no 720p 120fps in 200d/sl2
OMG did I say that?!?! Great catch.
Thank you for sharing!
@@TechGearTalk 7:25 nice vid btw
Thanks for the compliment and again for catching that. I just edited my pinned comment, check it out.
Nzambi Yea the sl2. only shoots upto 1080p hd
Thank you so much for this review! I was really torn, but this helped me soooooo much- great job!
Super glad it was helpful. Don’t leave me hanging, which did you pick?
This by far is one of the best camera comparison videos I've watched while I'm doing some research for purchasing my first "real" camera! You cover a lot of information while speaking clearly and slowly in language I can understand. I look forward to enjoying more of your videos. TY.
So glad you found it helpful. Thank you so much for the kind words and for being part of the community.
If you have any questions, let me know.
@@TechGearTalk , I think I've narrowed it down to the Canon M50 and the Panasonic Lumix GX 850 as far as price and size they are what I'm looking for. The flip screen on the Lumix is on top though and no audio unless you use an audio recorder. Can you give any input? My needs are lightweight, affordable, pictures and vlogging. Thank you, I value your opinion.☺
M50. Audio is so important, so why force yourself to sync it every time?
Af is better on the M50 also.
Image quality is great on both.
Overall user experience is better on the canon imo
THE MOST CRYSTAL CLEAR, CRISP AND HIGHLY UNDERRATED COMPARISON ! thank you so much !!!!
Oh wow, thanks so much 🙏 glad it was helpful!
Man excellent breakdown, appreciate it!
Thanks so much Taylor - glad it was helpful! Appreciate you being part of the channel!
@@TechGearTalk gonna do fitness videos in the garage. The low light garage I think would do well with the SL2 hearing everything you mentioned!
Cannot find new m50 in stock anywhere within the last 2 days!
Damn, your reviews are really great, I'm really picky when subscribing so it doe not mess up my feed, but your content is just one of the best in terms of explaining the details.. Keep it up man!!!!
Cheers from Manila!
I super appreciate the kind words and support. I will continue to do my best 🙏🏻
I'm looking to improve the quality of my videos, so I'll be buying one of these tomorrow 😁 so excited !! Great review.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support 🙏
I’ve got the canon m50 & canon 80D, I use my m50 more. Perfect on the go camera. (M50 & 22mm lens is my go to setup!)
Nice!! Love that lens. Canon need to make more fast Ef-m lenses
I literally wanted you to review these by the time I narrowed down to these cameras. So I had to hit the like button before I watched. YT algo and you came through for the boy.
Now back to the vid.
Update you're the fucking man. Choice update SL2. don't worry already on your playlist my G.
I'm so glad these videos are being helpful to you! I appreciate all the kind words and support!! Grateful to have you as part of the community 🙏
Thank u very much,that was helpful and also you look like Ross from friends show 😁
I'm very glad that this was helpful.
I get the "Ross" comparison a lot in my comments 😂
I have Canon M50 and I love it
Nice!
Put the m50 with viltrox speedbooster ef-eos m2. you wont regret.
I've been thinking about that. I'll see if I can get one.
I will get one
I just stumbled upon your channel and it couldn't have come at a better time. I am looking to step up my picture game for my blog and have landed on these 2 particular cameras. Thank you for breaking things down in a way that a novice understands.
You're very welcome Brittney. Let me know if you have any questions.
@@TechGearTalk Your video that showcased the photo comparison between the Canon M50 & the SL2 was super helpful and I think based on that, I'm going to go with the SL2! I don't really need 4k video, though it's nice, and I like the size and flexibility that the SL2 gives as far as lens compatibility. Thank you again! I feel like I did so much fruitless research before stumbling upon your channel, and I'm thrilled to have found someone that ACTUALLY answers the normal/everyday questions that someone like me (a true novice) has!
I'm so happy the videos are being helpful. Grateful for the feedback about the format and delivery 🙏
What an awesome video! I love the footage and the amount of details you’ve provided, it was really helpful! And very interesting too! Thanks for the comparison!
Thanks Dor, appreciate the feedback!
Man, how come you are only 14k subs while you joined youtube in 2010??
Damn on those google algorithms, you content is the BEST and you're the G.O.A.T.
But i'm sure you will climb to the top so fast! Keep up the amazing work!
I joined YT in 2010 but I only hosted a few videos of my saltwater reef tank.
I started this about 2 years ago and I was doing some testing to see what works and now I'm implementing.
Thank you so much for the encouraging words - I'm super grateful!
1080 P, detachable lens... enough said. Oh, yeah- I forgot... touch screen !! My dude your On point 👌🏻
Thanks for the feedback. Which did you like better?
Would you compare the G7x Mark 2 & M50 with some side by side video comparison as well as A few motion shots?
I don't have the G7XMKII anymore so I can't do that. The image quality will be better on the M50, plus it will have a fully articulating screen, audio input, better autofocus. Hope this helps.
What a great video! Thank you so much! As someone who is fairly new to the youtube world with my own channel I can appreciate a good youtuber. Nice work! Now I have to choose between the two. I have experience with DSLR and appreciate still photography but also need something to help me step up production quality of my youtube channel. I was all in with the M50 before I watched this video. I guess I have a little more research to do. Thanks again!
Thanks so much for the feedback. If you have any questions, I’ll try to help you move forward.
Which one of them works the best in low light?
They are essentially identical. Take a look at this: th-cam.com/video/XEhsU-aEX04/w-d-xo.html
Great video! Compliments! One question: Why did you cover the window in the back? I loved it when it was snowing ☺️😊
Thanks so much. I did it for a few reasons. First, lighting, it was challenging to keep consistent.
Second, audio. Those are noise dampening. I may still bring the windows back when it’s snowing and overcast!
Thanks for watching and being part of the community.
Thank you soo much buddy it was really helpfull loved ur video 🙌🙌🙌🙌💥💥
Glad it helped, my friend!
Great video! Keep it up man 👏🏽
Thanks Kevin! Glad you liked it. I'm doing my best to keep creating.
I had Lot of confusion to choose between these two.... I liked the Sl2 very much but the 4k video recording was the feature which I got interested when I compared these two...After watching your video I understood that why should I record in 4k..I just own a 4gb ram old pc which is slower to load Photoshop itself...And Iam not a vlogger or videographer to shoot in 4k..... You made me realised to choose the best for my usage... Thanks a lot for that... Iam viewing video from Ur channel for first time...And the first Impression was good.. great quality video...Gonna hit the subscribe button 😘

Does canon 200d mark 2 have 1080p 60fps?
yes
Please which is better for photograhy nikon d5600 or canon m50 or canon sl3?
Greetings from 2022; still useful video. Can't wait until the arrival and to to get my hands on my ordered Canon SL2 (200D).
Loved the video true. It was fun and informative. No nonsense, all substance and not a snooze fest for Change. Much love form India. Cheers.
I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and for the kind words. Thank you for joining the community 🙏
Great review, I'm trying to find a camera to upgrade from my phone. I think that I'm leaning toward the M50 but the only problem is the battery life.
You deserve more subscribers ! Keep doing this nice work
Thanks so much. I appreciate the support! If battery life is your only issue, watch this: th-cam.com/video/TOpsG_jlEbU/w-d-xo.html
Love your videos! It’s my first time buying a camera & I’m interested in landscape & portraits photography. Which camera would you suggest? Thank you!!

Well thank you for all of that 🙏😳
Great video! Which camera did you use to film this?
This has been a very helpful comparison. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful
Brilliant explanation now every thing is clear about these two cameras
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback. I'm glad that it was helpful.
Thanks for the review. All the extra stuff in the M50 sounded good.....until I heard the battery only gives 1/3 of what the SL2 gives and in my mind the score dropped quickly vs the SL2. But honestly, the shape and feel of the SL2 is much better. The M50 looks like a bridge camera at best.
I have both. I just bought the M50 a few days ago. I started really seeing the limitations of the SL2, especially the audio focus. I saw the sale on the M50 and I jumped on it. Just waiting on my Viltrox speed booster so I can use my other lenses and I ordered a Sigma 16mm. I can't wait for that.
That's some awesome gear you picked up John! I love that 16mm th-cam.com/video/uORT1dfeS0M/w-d-xo.html CONGRATS!!!
Hi you contacted me on Instagram i've just watched some of the video and my favourite would probably be the M50 because i'm more of a video recorder than photographer also the background is great the quality is amazing and keep up the good work. You've got a new sub :)
Thanks so much for the feedback. I agree that the M50 is an outstanding choice, especially for video.
Appreciate the Sub!
Great detailed video. I'm always impressed. Do you bring your slider everywhere?
Thanks E!
I mean... maybe I take it with me everywhere... I'm that dude where people are probably thinking: what the heck?
I´ve learned so much from you. Great channel. I bought an M50, and am thinking of buying another one. This way I´ll have the 2 x M50´s, and my Sony video recorder for doing drum videos. I´m also planning on doing live audio/video recording for bands in my studio. Anyway, keep up the great work.
Glad I've been able to help!
This guy is one of the reasons I got the SL2, and I don’t regret it
Super glad I was able to help and even more that you are happy with your decision! Great camera!
Tech Gear Talk Thank you, keep up the good work sir
I will do my best!
Great review and excellent presentation. I have a Panasonic G85 but miss my old Cannon so have been considering a new one. I feel like my g85 is good enough for any videoing that I do but want a better autofocus for photography. Nothing super heavy though...so this SL2 appeals to me. Thanks for the review!
Looks like the SL2 ticks the boxes you're looking for. Glad the video was helpful!
Hey man! Thanks for this video! just what i needed. I got a 80d and use it for my business.. it does the job well, but it can get heavy if i wanna use it for some fun stuff and just carry it around. But the battery life is epic! so when you mention the features on the SL2, i think i gotta go with that one... and for that price.. wow!
You’re welcome Erik. Glad it was helpful. And you already have all the lenses so, why not.
@@TechGearTalk Hey again. Maybe I missed this in the review, but can i see the sound levels on the display, when i shoot video on the SL2? I use it quite a lot on my 80d, so just wanted to be sure. Thanks
I haven't figured out a way to see those on the SL2. only in settings.
I recently and starting to get into photography but want to step up from taking photos on my phone, I plan to use a camera mostly for when I travel. Your video is great but i still can’t decide if the M50 is most suitable for me.
Hi Justin and welcome. What are the areas that give you hesitation?
Tech Gear Talk mainly the price difference, battery life and having the purchase the lens adapter for the M50. I do love the size of the M50 as I’ll be doing alot of travelling with my camera. I don’t think i’ll be doing much recording or sports photography as I just want to learn the basics for now, other then that the M50’s features seem so much better then the SL2. Saying that they both seem like great beginner cameras, but I just can’t decide.
Thankyou for responding!
Keep in mind that with the adapter, you’re losing some of the portability of the m50 because essentially the adapter adds the distance needed for the mirror in the sl2.
Have you seen both in really life? Is it possible for you to hold both at a store?
also you forgot to mention the codec on the cameras. which isent optimal for video editing.
It does require more processing power, that's true.
I want to buy camera dslr, please make video sl2 footage 1080p shoot in garden in 3 minute and people talking and walking in garden , and video m50 footage shoot 1080p in garden in 3 minute , for short movie youtube . So we can see video sample in 3 minute and we can choose which video sample is good for us, Thank you
Awesome video- this really explained my questions. Cheers!
Glad it was helpful!
I am edging towards the Canon SL2 since I'm still not truly sold on the mirrorless cameras as I don't fully understand them yet. Hope this turns out fine. Fingers crossed.
Good luck my friend. The SL2 is a good camera. I prefer mirrorless cameras for photography because of the improved autofocus using the viewfinder.
Hello. It's been many years since the 80D/77D came out, but I'm asking myself the same question. Now I have a Canon 600D, and I no longer lack its capabilities (of course 😅). I choose between 77D and M50. My main task is to shoot photos (I want to shoot commercials: portraits, custom family scenes, and some street photography). The video is most likely secondary (although I don’t know for sure). There is no money for a full frame yet. What do you recommend from these two devices? The bad ergonomics of the M50 and the lack of control buttons, as it is on the 77D, scares me. However, they tell me from everywhere: "2023, buy a mirrorless camera (they mean M50)"
I want to point out that I am not going to invest in EF-M lenses. I have a fleet of EF/EF-s.
What can you advise me? What can you advise me?
Trying to buy my first camera and really confused if i should buy m50 or 200d wanna use it mainly for street photography and sometimes normal videography
Good evening , thank you , thank you ones again for such a great review, it convince me , that I should buy another Canon M50’ and 'yes' I did. We had a brilliant family session at theThomson Bay , Natal, South Africa yesterday with two Canon M50's and both of us have been so satisfied with then late evening download of the pictures and video. So, just in the one sentence - I am very grateful to You., today. Ciao. Ania
Ania, thank you so much for sharing. So glad that they are working for you ☺️
This is the best channel ever for beginners
Oh wow, thank you for watching and for taking the time to leave feedback.
Great video! I am in the market for a new apsc camera after selling my rx100iv (found it to be too small). Having hard time choosing between m50, sl2 and fuji xt100. If only the canons had USB charging it would have made it much simpler. Do you think that switching from rx100 to sl2 will be "hard"? (In therms of focus thru the viewfinder)
Thanks! Check this out for m50 power options th-cam.com/video/TOpsG_jlEbU/w-d-xo.html
As far as focus, you can just use the viewfinder to focus with the touchscreen ( on both m50 and sl2)
Hope that helps
Which is good for photography
Both will do a good job. What are you planning on shooting?
if you want to start a podcast and want to use multiple cameras, lets say at least 3, full frame, and camera A and B, should you buy all 3 of the same? Or can you mix and match? If mix and match, which one should you use for full frame? Thanks for your help in advance!
You can mix and match. Why do you want full frame?
Hi. I'll be shooting nature and landscape on long journeys and adventure running. So I will be carrying the camera while running and in all extreme conditions
Which of these two cameras would you recommend, please?
Thank you.
Excellent comparison, you helped me a lot. Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
I'm so glad it was helpful Rene! Welcome to the channel!
Awesome video man. Super informative. Im going to be using the camera mostly for videography and vlogging so im def going with the m50. Cant wait to get started. In your opinion what would be the best gimbal for the money? Im not to educated on them. I want some buttery smooth video but also not burn a hole in my wallet if i dont have to or over spend. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind words. The M50 is a great camera, you won't be disappointed. As far as a gimbal, there are a lot of good options. Check out Moza, Zhiyun and the DJI Ronin S (there is now an Essentials Package): th-cam.com/video/xuzI4Rxmkh8/w-d-xo.html Let me know if you have any questions.
Tech Gear Talk thank you so much will do
Sounds good.
Excellent video. Thanks for the information.
You're very welcome Ernie. Hope it was helpful and let me know if you have any questions.
Just for the sake of photography as a hobby not wanna become professional photographer which one is better in between these two???
Both are very similar in terms of image quality. th-cam.com/video/XEhsU-aEX04/w-d-xo.html (see here). Is size important to you?
Hi Sir it's a very good video and can u pls suggest your opinion for the beginners which camera to buy...
Glad you liked the video. I would probably choose the M50 because the viewfinder is better and shows you the actual exposure. Hope that helps and welcome to the channel!
Thank u sir for ur valuable suggestions..
Glad I could help
Love your videos! Is there a difference in the audio preamp between the two?
Thanks so much Scott!!
Not THAT'S a great question. Let me think it out and I'll shoot a video about it. Appreciate the suggestion!
Which camera do you like better so far?
Well done. This helped me decide.
awesome video! thank you, this has helped me a lot. Am I doing well in buying the Sl2 for dance film?? your opinion would be very helpful on making my final decision. thanks again!
Both will give you essentially the same image quality. The m50 is smaller and more portable, and now has these lenses available: th-cam.com/video/uORT1dfeS0M/w-d-xo.html
The SL2 is a little bigger, and you can use all the canon lenses without needing an adapter (although you can use those lenses with the M50 and adapter).
I hope that helps.
@@TechGearTalk ok thank you very much!
I learned so much from this! Thanks 👍
I'm so glad it was helpful!
Great video. Found this after the SL2 video I commented on.
Thoughts on the M50 vs the T7i?
Thanks! What would you use it for?
I'm a gymnastics coach and I want to start making "life inside the gym" videos with action shots of my students and also interviews with them.
4k would be very nice, but isn't the most important thing to me. High frame rates are more important I feel. Slow motion is also crucial to what I want.
For what I want to do, which camera would you recommend?
Although I normally recommend the SL2 or the M50 (either would work great for you) because they are so easy to use, have great image quality and the autofocus is amazing. I would suggest you look at the Sony a6400. Sony is harder and more confusing to look, but if you need slow motion (120 frames per second), Canon doesn't offer that in a consumer camera yet.
Does that make sense?
@@TechGearTalk I will definitely check that out!
@@TechGearTalk I should also mention that I do have a note 9 phone. Should I just save the $700 and get a gimbal instead since I am a beginner?
Cool, let me know if you have any questions.
@@TechGearTalk should I get the mirror less camera or stick with my phone while I'm learning?
What a amazing review🔥🔥🔥🔥 m50 are 🔥🔥🔥 what video editor you use👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks so much! I use Adobe Premiere Pro. What are you shooting with now?
Man huge help! I’ve been looking at the M50 but now I’m really sure I wanna get it. 🙏🏽
Glad this video was useful. Let me k is if you have any questions.
What do you plan on using it for? What lens/es are you getting?
Tech Gear Talk I’m thinking just the creator pack it comes with. Mainly using it for vlogs.
Perfect. That’s going to get you hooked up for image quality and much. Enter audio. Good work.
Tech Gear Talk awesome! That’s great to hear bud! Appreciate the hard work! Just subbed! 👍🏽🙌🏽
Oh, thanks so much for the support 🙏
Here is my problem with both cameras I think the rebel 2 or 200d It Still the best camera Because Of The choices of lenses that you have
That makes sense. Don't forget you can use the adapter with the M50 if you want EF/EF-S lenses.
Your videos are fantastic. I'm stuck with a Sony a7rII and suddenly decided I want to vlog. I'm now having to buy an entry-level camera just so I can see my own face to do the vlogging. Never have I been in such an annoying predicament. I have this fantastic kit, but no way to use it reliably.
You could always get an external monitor and mount it on top. But that gets clunky. I’m not sure why Sony isn’t doing anything about it. The new a6400 at least has a flip screen.
Thanks so much for your prompt response @@TechGearTalk. I just had a quick look at that a6400 and would you believe it only flips up! So you get a selfie mode, but it's 100% obstructed by an external microphone - which is 100% necessary for vlogging etc. It doesn't flip to the side. I'm really dumbfounded by that design decision. I might be forced to buy into another ecosystem just to vlog. Would you recommend the EOS200D or the M50? because that's the two I'm aiming for. I do love the color science with Cannon. There's about a $100 price difference between them both here in Australia. Much appreciated!
You're very welcome. Depends on how small you want it to be. M50 with ef-m lenses is a super small setup. But if you're adding the adapter and using EF or EF-S lenses, you're adding to the size. I have both and they work great for me.
Hi! i want to ask about your opinion abt this.
recently i'm a beginner photo/viceographer and do some small paid project with my EOS M. but i have a confidence problem with this camera due to its small and compact size that make me feel "not professional enough" to do the work.
so right now i'm confused between this sl2 and m50 (my price range). actually i'm a bit leaning towards m50 due to its capability to record at 120fps eventho its only 720p, its okay for me cz upscale it to 1080 in post is still usable.
and its possibilities to use a speed booster to have a "full frame" camera experience.
but as you know, having a mirrorless again would definitely back to my previous problem with EOS M. soo maybe SL2 may be better. but M50 pros as i mentioned above are sooo tempting for me.
could you give me your point of view on this?
Many thanks!
I totally understand about the appearance of the camera and how it doesn’t “look professional”. The truth is, it’s not designed as a professional tool.
But what’s most important to the client is the results. No one cares what camera you use if you do good work.
Just like no one cares if you use a RED camera, if the results are terrible.
You’ve already done paid work, was it a problem?
Thanks for the info!
Outstanding comparison between the M50 and SL2. Does the M50 still maintain its smaller size benefit over the SL2 when using an adapter on the M50 for EF/EF-S lenses? I currently own the SL2 (which i like) but I am always looking for smaller solutions, especially when traveling with kids . I am curious to see the size difference between these two cameras with the same lens mounted on both. Also Does the M50 balance well with a speed lite flash mounted? Any input is appreciated, especially since there are no stores in my area have either on display to compare. Awsome video. Thanks.
Thanks Greg. The M50 is still somewhat smaller than the SL2 with the adapter. But of course, it's less significant. The adapter is designed to move EF/EF-S lenses to the same distance away from the censor as they would be on the SL2.
If I already had the SL2 and was not going to use EF-M lenses, I'm not sure I would switch to the M50. If you were going to go with EF-M lenses, then you've got a much smaller setup.
I hope this helps.
Thanks for your response. If I went with the M50, I would probably get the ef-m 11-22 and the ef-m 22 f2 lenses and adapt my other Ef-s lenses. When you factor the cost of the adapter and the better battery life of the SL2, the SL2 may be the better for me to stick with the SL2 for now. I estimate I would adapt lenses at least 50% of the time. Thanks again for your insight .
You're very welcome. I think it's a good way to look at it. The 22 f/2 is a great lens. But if you're adding the adapter and the ef-s lenses, and the reason for switching is the size, I would rather have you save your money and invest in better glass.
Nice video. Which editing software did you used for it and making the lower thirds and text tables? Thanks!
I was using adobe premiere pro
I have the Canon sl2. Is it worth having Both? I would like to stream on Twitch and TH-cam and would like to have a dedicated camera for that. Thanks again for a great video.
Hi Ray, I replied in the private thread. I think you're going to want a camera with a clean HDMI output for livestreaming. Even though the free app works, it's not at full resolution.

Great video. Thank you for sharing
Thank you so much for the feedback. Hope it was helpful.
Would the SL2 be better for selfies? I want to invest in a good camera for instagram pictures lol
I can’t decide! If only the M50 had better battery life. Will they ever upgrade the battery? Also, is the M50 battery so bad that it can’t work for video? Trying to get an idea of how long it will last.
The battery on the M50 is not great, but you can either get another battery or get a continuous power source. Hasn't been an issue for me (but I have 2 batteries). Are you shooting on the go or in a location with power?
Tech Gear Talk My wife would be on the go. How can u have continuous power? I heard there is no ac power input to keep the M50 plugged in.
I have a video coming that explains this.
So useful information!) thank you👍🏼
Glad it was helpful.
Good job! But what about focus points? I heard m50 has ~150, 200d only 9... isn’t it so? In my opinion it is the main difference...
Thanks. That’s only if you’re using the the focus points in the viewfinder of the SL2. If you’re using live view, then you’re using the dual pixel autofocus and can choose a focus point on almost the entire sensor.
Nice comparison good review.
Thank you very much! Which did you like better?
Which is better for video I have the rebel SL2 but I feel my video are not as clear that’s why I won’t a new camera I feel the cannon M50 is much better am I just tripping because I don’t know how to use it or am I right?
Hi. I have not seen noticeable image quality difference between the two (see here: th-cam.com/video/XEhsU-aEX04/w-d-xo.html). Here is my cinematic tutorial for the SL2: th-cam.com/video/RDs-Zzb0pmE/w-d-xo.html

Which should I get for rollercoaster pics and off ride footsge
Both would work great. The M50 is smaller and more portable if that helps.
I want to buy a camera but I can’t decide what to choose between m50 or sl2. Im a literally a beginner at photography and cameras any advice whom to choose between this two
Hi. Nice thing about the M50 is that it will show you the exposure in the viewfinder because it's electronic. Hope this was helpful.
Do you shoot your TH-cam videos at 4K? Is there a noticeable difference? What's the difference to the viewer?
Some are shot in 4K. For the most part, there is no significant difference for youtube. If I showed them to you side by side, you'd say that the 4K footage is sharper and has more details, but if I just showed you a good 1080P video, the average person isn't going to ever think about it. There are other advantages of shooting in 4k (even if you edit in 1080p) but there are also drawbacks. For me, it's not something that I worry about. I hope this helps.
