The Canon M50 is the only camera that I have been unable to walk away from since I got it in 2018. It is the only camera that calls me back whenever I say I'm done with it. It's small, light, and takes fantastic pictures, and once you get used to it, you can even make the battery last longer by switching it off in between shots. I bought it for street photography, but have ended up using it for events, and protests, even vlogs. I've ended up buying adapters for it, and shooting it with vintage m42 lenses… and when I pop a UFO lens on it, it is even pocketable. I've used it so much, all the rubbers are falling off at the back. I've used it in the rain, where it has got soaked and started to spaz out, but after blowing it out, and leaving it in rice, it has sorted itself out on more than one occasion. Because of my back problem, I have considered going full in on the M-system, even buying a second body for more serious work for when I can't lift my DSLRs anymore. I'm still going to do that irrespective of Canon's decision to discontinue this little wonder machine… more fool them.

@thenexthobby 11 месяцев назад

It’s not about the camera. It’s about the lens mount. The R-series of APS-C cameras do not use “special” lens mounts, as EF-S was for small sensor Canon DSLRs. EF-M was only ever a placeholder until the R series ramped up for mirrorless models. That said, hindsight is a luxury no one probably had several years ago when the EF-M cameras came out!

Not going to sell my M series lenses any time soon. I still have yet to get enough use out of them. I really like compact gear for example I own MFT gear, ZV-1, Sony HX-80, Canon SX-740 and I bought EF-M gear because its also small. I have mobility issues so large heavy gear is a no-no. You didn't mention that you can still adapt EF & EF-S lenses as an alternative. I'm still chuffed with my M50 i & ii and M200 including video. Let's be honest Viltrox, Sigma & Chinese manual lenses have kept the system going for longer. Canon's attitude to the M series and their owners has been nothing short of shocking. I will not be upgrading to Canon RF, I can't trust them anymore. I'm slowly migrating to Sony APS-C. I have the ZV-E10 and few lenses, I love the quality of the 11mm f1.8. Goodbye Canon and your Canon cripple. A blessing in disguise indeed.

What little I have used it I am not thrilled with low light performance and very rarely use an ISO under 800 unless I use a speed light. Still in learning stages though. I have watched all your videos having anything to do w/ M 50 / M6 or its lenses. I am disappointed in Canon because they push the R series and lenses are so expensive w/ no 3rd party alternatives.

@AnthonyJGianotti 11 месяцев назад

You couldn’t be more right. Once digital camera image quality reached good enough levels (probably as far back as the 5d mark 1/1d mark 3 in 2006/7!) the only thing gained has been ease of use, (I.e. better autofocus, more pixels for cropping, more dynamic range for rescuing shots not perfectly exposed in the triangle, etc.) or speed (also better autofocus, better readout, better buffer, faster processor, ai tracking and dynamic metering, etc.). End results by a skilled hand would be virtually identical to someone shooting a Z9 with the Plena or whatever other high end combo you can think of. Video is obviously a completely different discussion, my X-S10 runs circles around a 2012 DSLR for both pro and casual shooters.

That said I don't give two poops about what Canon does per se, but I hope the EF-M lenses get cheaper for a while, before going stratospherically expensive, so I can complete my collection without needing to rob a bank.

You’re quite right Mark. There’s nothing wrong with these cameras. I’m using m50, M6 and M200. They all share my arsenal of lenses and I’m very happy with the video quality that I get from them all. It is curious that Canon are finishing the m series though. The M50 must have been an entry into mirrorless for so many people and Canon even put out a mk2 of that and the M6. They were all at a nice price level for beginners.

@apislapis 11 месяцев назад

I agree 100% Ian. I will be keeping my M50s & M200 for many years to come having spent thousands on gear. It is very odd that Canon should ditch one of their best selling cameras (of all time?) and fail to support the lens range for it, then replace it with a lens range where there are no 3rd party manufacturers with more affordable lenses for beginners. I subscribe to both your and Mark's channel as the pair of you make perfect sense to me. Thumbs up to Mark for his comments. Neither of you are shills like many of the channels who talked rubbish about the exclusive leaks they had about the new M50 II, none of which proved to be true and who ditched the M50 quickly some time ago. Mark has tried to find lenses that have extended the life of the EF-M range while Canon did rather little for M owners. Keep up the great work Mark & Ian.

@noth606 11 месяцев назад

The 22mm is something I personally think that everyone should play with at least once. It's not really useful to describe how balanced the lens is without being able to see what it does yourself, it hits a sort of "magical" equilibrium between a sort of fisheye and something like a fullframe 50mm fixed that I at least think is good enough to make it a "must have" on EF-M cameras, if not on the camera it should be in the bag with it. Mine doesn't sit on my EOS-M that often because I have a Viltrox adapter and some other lens on it to get some specific more tele look, but the 22mm is never far.

@fingereze7202 11 месяцев назад

Yeah, been looking at that one to add to my arsenal...

@noth606 11 месяцев назад

@@fingereze7202 To me the best thing it does is that pictures with it don't have that "too wide" look if you get what I mean, it takes pictures that look normal unless you go out of your way to push it, like a full picture height vertical object at the edge of frame. It has the look of a 35mm on FF almost exactly. The only real downside is that it doesn't play well with low light, but that's logical. Another big advantage is that it makes the camera look like a plain compact camera, not at all 'intimidating' like a big DSLR tends to be, so people tend to be more willing to be photographed with it - at least in my experience. I often take pictures of things that spontaneously happen, and when I ask if I may take pictures, people always look at my camera. The EOS-M+22mm gets the same reaction that my compact Lumix'es do which is always "Sure" with a smile. If I'm carrying my Nikon with batterygrip etc very often it's a "Nooo..." or I have to explain what I want to do with the pictures first.

@timothykieper 11 месяцев назад

All good points. I think what most ( or all ) manufacturers are trying to do is force buyers into higher-priced items with fewer features. As much as I like the M6 II, it has no EVF unless purchased separately. Somewhat related, you now see new higher-priced phones with no micro SD slot. For me, it is a signal to start developing my photography skills using budget and vintage gear.

Canon M wasn't a bad idea, but because they went for "smaller, lighter" etc from the start, they had a fight on their hands with every other new release. Working professionals are not the audience for the modern releases. As you say, people that earn money don't care for 8k video when their clients have never shown any interest in it.

I mean, there are a couple of problems with the computer analogy. Have you tried to access the internet with any computer from the 00s or earlier? Lack of security updates, increase RAM requirements, not to mention incompatibility of software with modern standards means using old computers is difficult. The analogy with -digital- cameras is also problematic because of how much digital camera tech changed in the 00s and earlier. I think this is much less true today, and cameras from the late 2010s are much more long lasting. So your point is still largely true.

@IndigoEyePhotography 11 месяцев назад

There are several key differences between cameras and computers though: 1) Cameras have more moving parts that wear out and will be harder to replace. 2) Camera batteries degrade over time, and the use of proprietary designs (i.e. not the standard AA) will also make them harder to replace. It is precisely because of these reasons that I am considering grabbing a second M50 so that I can continue using my underwater casing for this particular camera model.

I am stuck with the M10, still use it. The only complain with it is just the video autofocus. But for photography, I think I kinda miss the dslrs such as the 50D, or even If I one day have the budget, I have been thinking to get myself a 5d classic. I have been wanting a full frame due to the shallower dof on the same focal length, plus the wider image area. So the old 5d should be great. And also I have heard about its colours, which is somehow closer to film look. But that is another story, IF i one day have the budget.

I've actually been waiting for full frame mirrorless cameras to get out of their constant upgrade cycle for video because I like to keep my gear for a long time. I think we're getting there finally. My main camera for photos is a Leica M6 from 1990 by the way. That's when photography on film reached the peak of that technology. I'm waiting for the equivalent of that for video before I invest in a full frame mirrorless. I'm thinking R8 might already be the ticket if I don't need IBIS.

Heyy i'm still using canon eos M (original M), i bought about 150USD with 18-55 EFM at 2019. And still pleasant to use. Even the autofocus are really slow. But hey, i didn't use it for sport, i mostly use it as a hobby. So i think just because it's an old camera, doesn't mean it takes a bad picture.

who is buying a used m50 for 500 - 600 thats preposterous

@radek1cihak 2 месяца назад

Today I am having an incredibly sad day when I found out that I will no longer be able to buy a telephoto lens for the Canon M50 Mark II anywhere. A little while ago I was crying and wailing on your video that you posted 3 years ago. Thank you for this almost philosophical attitude that eases my pain. You are indeed a wise man. Your vision is more real than my poor lament. But even so, I have to say that Canon shook my confidence. A camera is different than a computer or a car. With a computer, I have to know that it will inevitably grow old and go away - most computers are only for work or superficial entertainment, but a camera is a purely creative, magical thing. The day I get it, probably no one will buy the entire arsenal of all lenses at once - on the contrary, I have to have time to slowly find out where my photos will take me. My journey must mature. However, Canon did not give me the necessary time. With the decision to buy the device, I am also deciding for the entire system, which of course has no continuation. It's a betrayal. I can't afford to keep buying new cameras. The M50 Mark II is still new to my taste and I fell in love with it. But your look comforts me. I just don't know whether to have the lens sent from Japan via eBay - after all, it can't survive the trip in good health. I may even say goodbye to my dream of a telephoto lens today - maybe it's childish to want to photograph birds somewhere in the distance. Maybe you won me over for the 22mm dream, even though this range is in the kit lens 15-45mm.

I had my M50 for some years, and got itchy for an upgrade, but after researching and playing around with my M50 to explore unused features, I'm now keen to buy a second body and additional lenses 2nd hand. Absolute beast of a little camera!

@MrCrimenews 10 месяцев назад

I really love the M 50 and the M 50 mark two because they are so small and lightWeight delivering quality images. My videos and stills are really impressive. Of course I want to see something that small in real 4K. I’d also like a headphone Jack.

@joepublisher166 7 месяцев назад

Mark can you please assist me? I just purchased an EF-M 32mm f/1.4 STM lens from Adorama. However, in trying to register it, the Canon website indicates that the serial number should be somewhere on the connection side. However, I can't find a serial number anywhere on this lens, especially where they say it should be located. Do you possess this lens? Can you PLEASE check to see if your copy of the lens has a serial number ON THE LENS? (BTW: Your videos are superb - I love watching them.)

@tompurvis1261 2 месяца назад

Shooting with a pair of 5DM3s for years. Bought a M50 a few years ago and never really used it. My research into mirrorless had me dust the M50 off and try again. I picked up the Sigma 16mm and a 7Artisans 35mm and have an adapter for my EF lenses. Loved using it on a trip except the controls are lacking for moving focus and adjusting other settings. I did really like the mirrorless more than I thought I would so after returning home, I bought the R6 mark ii. Used it for an engagement session a few days later and love it. I could see my next international trip being all mirrorless.

Hi Mark discovered your channel and it´s amazing the quality of your content, you have a new subscriber!!. I looking for the 55-200 for my M50 but I cannot find any good deal… any recommendation of lenses that can be similar maybe other brand or with an adaptor for the standard canon lenses?Congrats from Spain

@Chasingsolace 3 месяца назад

I was into photography years ago and just fell out of the hobby. The Canon M50 definitely brought me back and now I'm looking to by a new higher end dslr. I'll be keeping the M50 as it's an amazing everyday travel camera. For the price it's one of the best you can get!

@wickie4801 4 месяца назад

You are right in all you say. I own M50II and M6II. I bought all original lenses for them. Beeing very satisfied with the results. The M-system is great for holidays and normal photography. So I will not give up the system. Lightweight, inexpensive, easy to carry with - much advantages. The only weakness ist, that there are only 7 lenses. But on the other hand its easy to chose, which one do you use. Conclusion: I will stay with the M-system because it is good enough.

@reeosva 8 месяцев назад

There is something good about discontinuing the system which are the BARGAINS! I got a full kit including 22mm, 32mm, 11-22mm, m100 altogether for less than a single x100v

@ThiagoMatuo 3 месяца назад

I just bought the R8 and should sell my M200, but I'm still thinking about it. The M series made me start liking photography as a hobby and the M200 is just fantastic, I carry it more than my phone sometimes. It's really sad to see Canon discountinuing that amazing serie that problably made a lot of people like me to start with photography.

@Welshmanshots 11 месяцев назад

That's typical, I only bought the M50 in 2021! It's still a great camera and I'm gonna keep it but I'm just gonna have to get adaptors for EF lenses but I'm sure my M50 will last decades like how my Smartphone has last 5 years which to me is quite a shock.

@isbestlizard 2 месяца назад

Haha I knew this was going to happen. I bought an EF lens adapter and EF lenses like the 50mm f/1.8 rather than ef-m because I knewwwwwwwwwww this was going to happen XD

@michaelbower85 7 месяцев назад

The EOS M50MII was my first real camera. I liked it, but on the advice of my friend Bronson I switched to the Sony A6400. Glad I did it, and did well when I sold my Canon!

@cornerofthemoon 8 месяцев назад

I traded my M6 Mark II and accompanying lenses for a used (with warranty) Canon 90D. I suppose I could have squeezed a couple more years out of the M6 but decided to sell while the EF-M still had value in the used market. The specs of the 90D are similar to the M6 but is native to the EF lenses in my collection. I'll miss the compact form factor of the M6 but the 90D has far better battery life.

@CountDorkula 6 месяцев назад

A few questions... is it worth it to move from my EOS T5i body to a Canon M series camera? I would be using it for Astrophotography. Last question.. are the M series lens better then the EOS kit & nifty fifty lens & a 24mm pancake lenses i use? Wondering if this would be an upgrade? My other option is to move to Sony E series

@twothbeave 11 месяцев назад

Heart breaker. This had the potential to be the best all around camera system. Magically small with fantastic IQ. I have too many cameras to count, from Pro Full Frame to MFT. My favorite of them all is the M6m2. Simply fantastic with the Sigma Trio.

@nSpiraliArchitectb 8 месяцев назад

I just purchased this camera after coming from Sony FF; any tips for a new owner who is also brand new to Canon? I was thinking about buying the Speedbooster and a couple EF-S lenses to start. Thanks!

@twothbeave 8 месяцев назад

I use the Viltrox speed booster and the EF 24-105 F4 as my go to Camera. I have more than 20 bodies of all types. Canon, Sony, Nikon, Panasonic, and it’s my first choice because of handling and quality.

@GinoFoto 10 месяцев назад

Although all M cameras was pretty much forgettable, whole EF-M system was just two lens wonder, lovely 22mm and 32mm which was arguably one of the better lens formula of all time, and of any camera system to accompany price, performance, character and size.

@chriscamburn 11 месяцев назад

You could make the argument that used M50 lens prices might not fall for a while. I just bought a new Canon EF-M 55-200mm lens on Ebay new instead of used for $50 less. (For the price difference why risk a used lens problem? For me a used discount is 50% of new). Being discontinued I had to compete my lens set before they're no available anywhere. As an occasional user I have no interest in spending another $1,000 or so for a non entry level kit only to chose another system that gets discontinued. And, I needed the lens now. Not in a year when it might be at 50% price.

I have a Canon M50 Mk ii. I am interested in landscape photography and instructional video. Realistically, 1080P is more than adequate for instructional video. There are a lot of Canon M mount bodies out there. I suspect that there are third party lenses in development which will come out in M mount versions. Sigma crop sensor lenses have interchangeable mounts, so there is little reason for Sigma to stop production of M mount in the near term. That said, I already have two of the Sigma M-mount trio. I just ordered a used Canon M6 Mark II body from Japan to use as a second video camera. I also just ordered a 55-200mm M-mount lens. It has image stabilization.

@DeSireeAlicea19 11 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video! I don't really follow camera news so I wouldn't have known otherwise. It's sad to see this mount go, but in a lot of ways it may be a blessing for M50 users who want to expand their lens arsenal at a discount in the future. I bought my M50 brand new in 2020 at the start of the pandemic and I don't plan on selling it or letting it go until the thing just does not switch on anymore 😂 Like you said with the computer analogy, you can keep using cameras until they quit on you essentially. If you look at the digicam craze, those cameras are well over 20 years old and people are picking them back up to shoot nostalgic photos. Perspective is important! As for video, it's still pretty great for family videos or youtube since most ppl still do not shoot in 4k. Again thanks for the info!

@isavkov 11 месяцев назад

The M series is amazing value cameras, but it has one big flaw. The mount! Canon doesn’t want to have two different mounts. And their main focus is the R-mount. If you invest in the M-mount you can’t upgrade or re-use it with the R-mount. And Sony proves that if you want to have good multifunctional mount, you need to have only one. Canon is trying really hard to catch up to Sony and their lens line up. And the only do that is to kill the M-mount

@jasmijnariel 8 месяцев назад

I own an m50 mk2 for 3weeks now, bought it second handed from a guy that i think never even used it. He had noooo idea how the camera worked. Came with the kitlens. Yesterday i picked up a 55-200mm on sale, so yeah,so far i think the camera will be with me for the next 5-10y. I am not a person that wants a new toy every week. And with lens adapters i dont see a problem for the future. Humans are very good at solving problems, so it will all be okay

@RafaPolit 10 месяцев назад

I am not sure I agree with the premise. Yes, the image quality will be the same, and if the product catalog was full featured, I would agree. But you buy into an ecosystem as an "early adopter" with the promise that it will expand. It would be similar to buy the RF-S system right now: you have 3 or 4 lenses available to you, but you buy into the promise that this ecosystem will grow and you will get better lenses, with more useful ranges, or faster apertures, etc. But if you purchase an RF-S now and the system is discontinued, you would be stuck with a "half fulfilled ecosystem". So systems from this giants like Canon or Nikon should, at least, live for 10 or 20 years to allow for users to actually live healthy within the ecosystem. I would be really pissed had I bought into the M ecosystem right now.

@frankmckinley1254 9 месяцев назад

Recently got a Canon M200 at a discount price brand new. From a well known store, should have known something was up. By the way it shoots great pictures. That said, I went to the nearest big city camera store, where the young sales guy with attitude states you know those are discontinued. Yet wanted to sell me the used 22mm lens for $149.00.

@nateg2282 Месяц назад

The only thing i am disappointed with my M50 is the battery. I bought a third party grip so i can use a third party lithium battery. Amazing purchase.

@williamburkholder769 11 месяцев назад

Canon never took the M seriously, like Nikon never took the 1 series seriously. It gave them a bit of experience with mirrorless, but they probably learned more from Sony, Panasonic, Olympus, and Fujifilm than from their own pursuits. I feel sorry for those who spent a lot of money to buy M lenses and bodies. The good news is that they should be able to pick up any M gear they want, really inexpensively, on the used market...

@adreanl.2004 11 месяцев назад

I wanted to buy the canon m6 mk2, but when the r10 released I couldn't find any store for the M6 mk2, not even online, I live in Malaysia, so I ended up buying the r10, It does have better autofocus, especially for vehicles (because I shoot cars), with 4k 60 cropped, but the lens options are very limited, and I'm jealous of the sigma trio for the M mount🥲, I hope it'll get to the rf mount

Canon never learned its lesson losing a generation of Canon film SLR users when it left out FD lens from working in Canon DSLRs. This is the reason why I and several others switched to Nikon in the early DSLR days. Nikon never abandoned its film SLR users when Nikon vintage lenses were kept functioning in Nikon DLSRs.
