Hello wredwood,
Videos work without any problems, but as I practically only take photos and ordinary short videos with the R50, I unfortunately can't answer your other questions competently. But the instruction manual is very detailed, including the video section, WLAN, connections etc.. And Google also knows all about it.
The only disadvantage of the camera is that the sensor is not protected, so be careful when changing lenses.
Hello, I would like to record a video course with this camera, whereby I always stand about 2 metres away and present the course content. There will probably be about 150 videos in total, lasting an average of 10 minutes.
My questions:
Is this camera suitable for this?
Can I connect the RØDE NTG3 Black microphone?
Is "Direct Storage" or "External SSD Recording" possible via USB-C? (I would like to attach the following SSD directly and store the videos on it so that I don't need an SD: SanDisk Extreme Portable (4000 GB)
Can I use this remote control (Canon BR-E1) to trigger video (not photo)?
Thank you very much!
The EOS R50 has the RF bayonet. If you have EF-M lenses, you can no longer use them on the R50. If you use EF/EF-S lenses with the EF-M/EF adapter, you can continue to use them on the EOS R50 with an RF/EF adapter. Otherwise you will have to use RF / RF-S lenses. Here the choice is getting bigger and bigger. As the EOS R50 is a small, compact camera body, you should concentrate on RF-S zoom lenses, which are compact and lightweight. This allows you to cover a broad spectrum, e.g. with the RF-S 10-18 mm, RF-S 18-45 mm and the RF-S 55-210mm. In contrast to the EOS M50 Mark II, you can also use all other RF lenses with the EOS R50 without an adapter. However, the difference between the two bodies EOS M50 and R50 is not very big.
I would therefore recommend the EOS R6 full-frame camera, which is currently available at a very favourable price and is a quantum leap compared to the EOS M50 Mark II. I would continue to use the EOS M50 Mark II as a second/travelling/hiking camera. The same applies to the lenses as for the R50 with the exception that you cannot attach RF-S lenses, only RF lenses or EF lenses with an adapter. Here too you have a good choice, which is growing.
