Canon launches cinema grade camera, EOS R50 V, for creators: Specs, price and first impressions
Canon is adding a new chapter to its mirrorless lineup with the EOS R50 V, a camera designed specifically for video-centric content creators. Launching on April 28, the R50 V will be available across retail outlets in India and via the Canon e-store. This marks the debut of Canon's new 'V' series, aimed at simplifying video production for users who regularly switch between different shooting styles. The R50 V builds on the base of the original R50 but introduces tweaks that make it more suited for creators who prioritize video over stills. The idea seems to be clear: make the process of shooting video less complicated and more intuitive, especially for solo creators or those just starting to build their online presence. With features tailored for vlogging, social media clips, and livestreaming, the R50 V is Canon's latest attempt to stay relevant in a space that's rapidly shifting toward video-first platforms.

It supports formats like XF-HEVC S and XF-AVC S—straight from the Cinema EOS system—along with Custom Picture profiles and LUT support, putting serious grading and color control within reach. On the audio front, Canon's added 3-mic noise reduction tech that cuts internal camera noise automatically.

Live Streaming The EOS R50 V features a new livestream button and supports four streaming options: wirelessly via Canon's apps, through HDMI, or via USB-C. The Live Switcher Mobile app even enables multi-cam setups by combining feeds from the camera and smart devices. USB-C streaming supports cropped 4K 60p, perfect for high-detail livestreams.

First Impressions Right out of the box, the EOS R50 V impresses with its compact design and light weight—ideal for creators always on the go. It's small enough to toss in a bag, yet feels solid in hand. One standout feature is the front-facing record button, a simple change that makes a world of difference, especially when paired with the flip display. The color reproduction and versatile lens were a hit, giving us plenty of creative freedom for both video and stills. With live streaming becoming a major part of the creator economy—just look at iShowSpeed's influence—this camera feels like it could easily become a go-to tool for content creators looking to step up their game. The only thing we haven't had enough time to test thoroughly is battery life, but we'll save that feedback for later.
