Today I’m going to compare the Canon SL3 (250d or 200d mark ii) and the Canon M50. These are two of the most popular beginner cameras from Canon and I have received so many requests for this video.
I’ll cover the strengths and weaknesses of the #canonsl3 and the #canonM50 for both photography and video, and compare everything from body type, framerate and resolution, autofocus, lens options, audio features, and ergonomics.
I will also look at the SL3 (#250d) and M50 in terms of battery life, timelapse, viewfinder and streaming options in terms of a clean HDMI out.
Finally I’ll tell you which option I think is best for different uses.

What's up everyone?! I hope this comparison of the Canon SL3 (250d or 200d Mark ii) and SL2 + sample footage and images is helpful. Did you like it? These are two of my favorite entry level options for both photography and video. Let me know what you think!!
Would love to know what you think, good or bad. I am grateful in advance 🙏
I discuss this at the end. Depends on what type of photography and whether you use the EVF or LCD
Brother rply to my comment... I want to buy a camera so just waiting for your reply thanks
@adam vine I think I replied right?
Tech Gear Talk If you had to choose one for small audiovisual works but whit a excelent cinematographic video...what would be the best option?
@@TechGearTalk can you tell me which is better for landscape and statue pictures. The Canon 800d or the 80d /77d? Is faster shutter speed a need?
3 years later and you’re still helping beginners interested in photography like myself great video
That makes me so happy. So glad the videos are helpful. Thank you for being part of the channel!
@@TechGearTalk Yep, same here. Maybe just one question.. Do you think this is still the best comparison of the two best beginner lvl cameras today? Or do we already have a better option on the market in 2022? Thanks :)
@ sl3,t8i,90d,m50ii all good for beginners camera
This guy was great in Friends. Ross and Rachel were meant to be.
We were on a break!!! 😂🤣
Hahaha best comment in this section 😂
This guy actually has a male voice and doesn't whine like an 8 yr old.
At first I really thought I'm watching Ross talking about camera... 👍👍 😊😊😊

Fantastic video. I was stuck between the SL3 and M50, and after you laid out all the differences, the SL3 seems like the way to go for what I want.
Oh wow, thanks so much - so glad it was helpful. What made you go that route?
@@TechGearTalk I was leaning towards the SL3 to begin with, but after you showed it's clean hdmi output option for streaming, as well as live audio readout while recording, it was the way to go. Otherwise, it was pretty close.
Yup - those are huge points for sure.
As a beginner filmmaker with a very tight budget I'm not sure which of these to pick. I was considering the Sony E10 but it's off my budget so I'm leaning towards the SL3. Thoughts?
Sounds good to me
Best video I've ever seen on cameras (from a beginners stand point)
The fact that you took the time to explain "Mirrorless" vs "DSLR" is a testament to your level of detail. Good job
So glad it was helpful Thomas. Thank you for being part of the channel!
Bought the SL3 (250D) after documenting myself (this video played a major role).
As a first DSLR camera, it feels great, long battery and very nice pictures!
CONGRATS on the new camera and glad the video was helpful! Glad to have you as part of the channel!
I am from India 🇮🇳 ..super explained . today i bought my 1 st DSLR camera 250D 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I’m just beginning so all of this is pretty overwhelming but your explanations are so clear. Big help. Thank you.
Welcome - and glad to hear that the video is helpful. 👊
4 years later... i find this video insanely helpful,thank you
So glad to hear that. I appreciate the feedback!!! Thank you for being part of the channel!
I've been reading a lot of negative feedback about SL3... Majority of the users said that its better to buy a M50 or SL2... I just think that SL3 is awesome but I dunno... Anyway, this is the best video comparison I have watched so far. You are very helpful!!!!
Glad you liked the comparison and thank you for the kind words. What are the things you like about the sl3?
why sl2 is better than sl3?
@@tomjens2046 it's all about the fact that it's just not worse than sl3 but costs almost $200 less than sl3.... that's it.... If you don't really need 4K then you don't need sl3.
@@PaulKalak there are some more added features, I do not remember exactly but some feature at least (like either wifi, or mic jack, or something of similar significance - I remember because that was something that was important for me when comparing those 2)
@@PaulKalak there are many important features added not just 4k! Like clean hdmi output, digic8 , buttery life....
Ross, this is the BEST comparison I've seen. Super clear, I understood the message even though I have no idea about cameras. Thanks for sharing
So glad it was helpful! WE WERE ON A BREAK!!! 😂🤣
@@TechGearTalk brilliant
I've narrowed it down to these two cameras, and I still can't decide. Thanks for doing this video, though. It's given me the most clear look at both cameras side by side. Now I've got some thinking to do.
Thanks for the kind words! Good luck with the decision. Let me know what you pick.
Have you made the decision? I'm struggling too😂
Have you made a decision yet? I am struggling
Very helpful! Thank you
That's great to hear Annabelle. Which one did you like better?
I bought the M50 Mark 2 and I like the ability to use different lenses with the Viltrox speed adaptor. I am not a fan of the battery life but your tutorial about how to increase it helped. I generally don't like to use the view finder so I shoot using the screen for the most part. I will start taking photography classes soon and am excited about learning how to unlock the best ways to use it.
New subscriber🏂
you make the buying decision very easy for the buyer,
good job 👏🏻 , keep going.
I'm so glad it was helpful. Thank you for subscribing 🙏
Which one did you like better?
From my personal opinion, I see that the SL3 and M50 are the same camera , except one is a DSLR and other one is mirrorless
I will buy SL3 because battery life is very important for me ,
Thank you for interacting with my comment💐, stay safe, and have a nice day
Makes sense to me. Thank you and good luck!
I bought my SL3 yesterday and im here to satisfied my Decision.🤣🤣 thank you .I dont regret buying my Sl3 my first Camera😭😭
I was all ready to drop my money on the M50, but it looks like the SL3 is exactly what I need for video. This review comparison was perfect.
Are you using SL3 now??
@@reedandesmas6292 Yep. I have the SL3. I find it great for video and the Face-detect is awesome. I don't care to use it with the eyepiece because my T7i has much better focus through the eyepiece though.
I just recently bought an RP too and that one is even better for video and the EVF is a game-changer. Plus all the Full-frame advantages. Same Battery as the T7i & SL3 is a bonus.
I recommend the SL3 if you're shooting videos or you like to use Live-View for pictures. It forces you to use the touchscreen to access more features so it can be quite a bit harder than a T7i to use with gloves on if that's a concern for you.
I'll add that it's also my primary webcam now too. I use the EOS utility to pair it to my computer and put on the 24mm f2.8 lens. Some temperature-controlled Neweer lights on an umbrella stand pointed at the wall behind my computer to soften it aad I can shoot at 1/60 f2.8 ISO 800 and look great for my Zoom meetings when I'm not recording music.
Really appreciate the clear, precise, and easy to follow information you provided! I haven't found such an unbiased, well-informed review on the SL3 (especially in comparison to the M50) except from this video. You helped a lot! Your expertise and easy to follow reviews easily gained a subscriber in me!
Glad it was helpful! I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and for the kind words. Thank you for joining the community 🙏
This is by far the best review I’ve seen! Thank you so much for making it so simple! I wanted to chose between the two and now I know what one to go for! Great work mate! 👍🏻
I bought a g7x because of one of your other videos, and now I am going to buy the SL3 because of this video. I will now have an g7x, m50, and a SL3 for my video toolbox. Many thanks to you for all your help in teaching me more about these cameras.
So glad I can help you. That's a really nice lineup of cameras Juan!
This video was extremely informative and helpful. I own 3 olympuses and a Fuji, but the size and weight of the lenses are somewhat an impediment when sticking a 300 mm into somewhat's face. I was looking for a cam that fits in a jacket pocket pocket. The M 50 is the exquisite choice for discrete street shooting. Fantastic video to help me find the right choice. In America and in Canada, carrying a Pen F or a XPro3 with pro prime lense is no issue, but in Venezuela or Manila I would not make it out of the airport with that kind of gear. The M 50 may be considered a beginners cam, but for certain situations it is just the best choice.
yes! i would love that comparison using the adapter on m50.
Appreciate you taking the time to watch and letting me know.
Yes! Me too!
Another vote!
me too!
They keep coming in
Great review and reassuring as I've just ordered a250d(SL3)
which one would u reccomended to a vlogger? I have the g7x ii, but i want some professional shoots to mix in my videos... what would u reccomend?
buy sl3 so u have alot of lens option and cheap too
Vc por aqui? Que surpresa! 😃
Nice question. Following.

Very nice review. You just helped me decide which one to replace my t3. I’m going with the SL3. Mainly because I have big hands, and it’ll do every shot I’ll ever need. Next step is full frame for night sky photography. Thanks for doing what ya do. 👍
Dude this is really helpful
I am planning to get the sl3 next black friday
So wish me luck that I get good offers
P.s watching you from the middle east❤
Thanks for watching and leaving feedback! I'm hoping you get a great deal!!
Your channel is one of the the best things i've come to find on CZcams thus far
It was quite helpful about which one I should choose as a new user. Thank you so much!
Half it was helpful. The m50 is better for photography because of the eye detection and the evf autofocus. Welcome to the channel!
Great video, helped explain lots of little things I was looking for that people or websites just gloss over. There were a few issues I still wanted to figure out, that no one talks about much. I will be using the camera for shooting baking videos and some cooking videos, my tribulations with the cameras
1) If a camera is (or not) weather sealed, how likely is it to get damaged over time if exposed to fine flour and other particles floating around in the kitchen?
2) This is more for the kit lens, during cooking/baking steam is an issue, how likely is that to ruin a camera if exposed for few seconds until I realise that the lens/camera is getting steam on it?
3) I want to make time lapse videos during baking, the ambient temperature around the ovens do get hot, definitely crosses 40 degrees celcius on summer days here, how well does m50 or SL3 stand up to heat exposure? The oven door is closed, not putting the camera inside, just shooting from outside to look inside the oven.
4) What kind of failures, repairs, problems should new users expect due to user faults? Let's say we don't put the lens on correctly a few times, how much will that chafe the grooves? We knock the camera against a surface while moving things around?
5) If I am shooting a video in the kitchen of a baking process, how fast is the video being transferred wirelessly to the pc? Or would a wired option be faster for data transfer? What kind of gear would be useful for a wired transfer of data?
Are there off market solutions to the above kind of problems? Once again great videos, helps me understand quite a bit and ask right questions and understand answers when I started with zero knowledge.
Thank you so much for the comparison. This is the most organized and precise comparison video.👍
You are very welcome, glad you liked it. Which camera did you like better?
Tech Gear Talk Wow. That’s a tough question. I am looking for a camera for youtube video. Though I like the look of 24fps, I think I have to go with the SL3 for the eye autofocus and clean hdmi and 422 output. Battery life is not too important for me because I am going to use the ac adapter (dummy battery) anyway. Sometimes, I have to take photos of me and my artists (I am a small record label owner) in the quiet dark music studios here. It seems like both have the same low light performance so either will work the same I guess?
(Un)fortuantely, I don’t shoot Music Video myself by the way. If I do, I will have to get the M50 just for 24fps.
I think that's a very good process you went through there. I agree that for your needs, the SL3 is the best option. Using the AC adapter with the clean hdmi/422 and recording externally will be very powerful for you.
As far as low-light: just make sure to add light, it's the best solution for all cameras :)
Appreciate you participating in the community!
Thank you for the comparison again. 👍
You're very welcome, appreciate your feedback and joining the community!
You know what I like about you you're so honest you are so honest how you go through your presentation on both cameras amazing
I'm really happy the presentation style is helpful. The only thing that matters to me is that I give you my honest opinion.
I just bought the SL3 yesterday and didn't even know about mirrorless cameras. I like the idea of no moving parts and 10 vs 5 fps shooting but it's too late to cancel my order.
This will be my first real camera I hope I got the right one. I plan to do mostly nature photography, astrophotography with my telescope, time lapses, and long exposure stuff.
Hi Joey and welcome to the channel. The SL3 is a great camera. Check out this sl3 streaming setup: czcams.com/video/XKVrK4Y0ehg/video.html
I am not looking for buying any of these cameras still watched the whole video coz it's you 😂😂😂
I'm super grateful for your time and all the support - I really am 🙏
What's a better camera mirrorless
I bought the M50 in summer 2019 to use alongside my Drone, i checked out as many reviews as i could at the time and they pretty much all stated that the M50 was a good camera for vlogging.
I used it initially for vlogging but lately i've been taking more time to get into the photo side of it, so i'm checking out the various settings for the different situations i'll be in when taking photo's.
I'm new to the photography side of the camera, so i'm checking out the various tutorials.
Thanks for your info on the two camera's, i think i made a decent choice considering where i am at the moment.
Hi George, I'm super glad the video was helpful. You can take very good images with the M50. Check out some samples with these lenses: czcams.com/video/uORT1dfeS0M/video.html
Hey man, great video! I really need your advice i’d be greatful if you can suggest me something. My videos are mostly about ‘sitting videos’ just like you on this video I’m sitting on my couch and explaining stuff. ( I might do vlogging and gym videos as well in future) Could you please suggest me something for my needs? Budget also is important for me. I’m looking forward your answer. Right SL3 is in my mind but I wonder what would you suggest me?
Hi there. I think I helped you on IG. Let me know.
@@TechGearTalk Yes you did thank you^^ jI was gonna go with SL3 but I guess M50 is better ? Can I ask what would you buy if you were in my situation ?
I would get the M50 if I was doing photography. SL3 for just video (unless I really wanted 24fps). Make sense/
Tech Gear Talk thank you^^
You're very welcome.
Excellent comparison video. I was going towards the M50 now I'm leaning towards the SL3. 👍🏾
Glad it was helpful Charles!
Always on point...you need more subs you have a clear tone and great presence. I'm going with the M50 myself
Thank you so much for the kind words Ed!. If enough people find value in what I do and share the content, I'll get there. My focus is to create videos that help the community learn and made decision. Appreciate having you as part of the community.
This is helping us till now
This review is exactly what I was looking for! I was thinking about buying one of those two and I'll probably choose SL3. I'm looking for a camera mainly for photos, not videos so I hope it's a good choice. Thank you so much!
As long as you don't need 1080p at 24fps , the SL3 is a great choice. Glad the review helped!
I’m deciding between these 2, it’ll be my first camera. I want one that’s good in both photography and video. I’m guessing the M50 is the right choice because I do plan on making a CZcams channel and the auto focus would probably be very handy.
Hi. The autofocus for video is very good for both - so that wouldn't be a reason to pick the M50 over the SL3. However, the aufo focus through the viewfinder is better on the M50 and there are more AF points to pick from plus face tracking.
If you plan on doing any streaming, the SL3 is a great option!
Tech Gear Talk thanks for the reply,and no I don’t plan on doing live-streaming.
Alright, sounds like you're all set!
How do you only have 55k? Love these videos you make dude! Insightful and really helpful when making decisions on kit. Hope you gain more of a following soon, you really do deserve it!
I'm super glad it was helpful! Thank you for the kind words and for joining the community 🙏 I think if people keep enjoying the videos and share them, the channel will grow.
Again, appreciate having you as part of the community.
What an utterly perfect video! This is the first M50 250d comparison video I've watched and I've been able to make a decision. I usually have to watch 3 or 4 different videos. Great stuff!
Which one did you go for?
The way you lay out the information about cameras can only tell your are an intelligent and very knowledgeable, these information WILL NOT BE FOUND IN A MANUAL. God bless you Sir.
Glad I could help. Thanks for being part of the channel 🙏
I found your video helpful. I like the m50 but with your video, I'm beginning to change my mind.
I'm super glad it was helpful! Thank you for the kind words and for joining the community 🙏
oh god i had my hand on my heart the whole time because i chose SL3 over the M50 and i was TERRIFIED i made the wrong choice
Brother... Thank you!!!
I've been searching videos all over for the past couple hours trying to figure out why it wouldn't work in OBS but lo and behold it was my camera lol. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful. Thank you for being part of the channel!
Ive ordered the SL3 (well, the EOS 250d here in Spain)
another note worth saying, I ordered a silver body, with leather looking (not sure if it is leather) grip!
there are 3 colors, black, white, and silver. (not sure if the M50 has those options too.
I also wanted to say that I made the choice thanks to this video, I prefer the option of more variety of lenses!
so thank you for this video!! I appreciate it! I also got my old EOS 700d working again, and hot even got it to work as a webcam with just the USB cable!
I have one more question, what type of USB connection is on the 250d? is it the same as the 700d? or has it changed?
Thank you for all of your videos, truly appreciate content creators who help people making their choices!
I am late to the party but I am so glad I have found your channel. Just brilliant.
I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and for the kind words. Thank you for joining the community 🙏 - welcome!
Hey so I’m looking to get into making documentaries i started watching many of your videos they are very helpful! What would your recommendation be for a documentary look!?
Hi. Both would work with the right settings. Watch this tutorial czcams.com/video/RDs-Zzb0pmE/video.html
Very simple and clear, I prefer 250D going to gift my 16yr daughter.
I was thinking about M50 , after watching your incredible peace of art video , i am going to SL3 , Legend 🙏
Great review! It really helps a lot, i finally have an answer for choosing these cameras. SL3 would be the best fit for me. Thank you!
So glad it was helpful!!! Thanks for joining the community 👊🙏
Well done Sagi. You deserve more subs bud!
Thanks so much Patrick. In time, if people find value in the videos, watch/share I think it will happen.
Would you say the 250D still holds up vs the M50 Mk II in 2022?
I'd like to upgrade my 100D that I use as a webcam for online teaching/CZcams videos and the M50 Mk II comes highly recommended. The only thing putting me off is the fact that all my lenses are EF mount and an adapter is just something extra I'd have to buy. The specs for the 250D and M50 Mk II look virtually identical on paper so is there anything I'd be missing out on by getting the 250D instead? Any insight you have would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for making my decision easier. Your reviews and explanation on Mirrorless or DSLR cameras are easy to follow. Because of this review, I'm going to purchase the SL3.
I'm super glad it was helpful! Thank you for the kind words and for joining the community 🙏
This video is so incredibly helpful. Thank you so much!
I'm still a BIT torn between the 2 (however, I now have so much more information thanks to you!)
I will be using it primarily for photography--boudoir and nature landscapes, to be exact. I understand the SL3 has some more flexibility in terms of lenses but I love the compact size of the M50! What would you recommend?
Thanks so much in advance. Subscribed!
thanks for the video i like the options on the sl3 but i like how the m50 is smaller and more compact makes it hard to choose. random question are mirrorless becoming more popular and if so would it be better to get the m50 for the future ?
5 years later and this video is still useful. I'm in the exact situation of having to chose between these two cameras in 2024. I'd really love a mirrorless system (EVFs are the way to go), but now Canon have essentially killed the M-series, it makes more sense to go with the SL3 (or 200D Mk2 in my case). Thanks!
Hi Sagi,
I have a news to share. Several weeks ago My preference went to M50. Always wanted DSLR, but spec and size sold me M50. So I have bought it. But I felt like something was missing and I wasn't happy with it. Don't get me wrong, the M50 is packed with features and so on, but... Bought a speed booster, adapter, prime lens and in the end had to get a cage because it never felt right in my hand. I never had a good feeling when holding it while taking photos. Physical buttons felt quite close to each other etc. I didn't like the range of EF-M lens that Canon offers, so I was gonna put EF/EF-S on it anyway. I thought speedbooster will help it, but I felt photos lack the sharpness with speedbooster and had some chromatic aberration and vignetting in the top corners. The last nail in the coffin was the battery. For my type of work I'd need at least 3x batteries to last me a full day.
In the end I have returned my M50 and bought, YOU'VE GUESSED IT Canon EOS SL3, and I am super happy! It feels like a PROPER CAMERA again, and my photos with EF lens are sharper without the speedbooster.
BTW watched your reviews dozens of times to weighed all the factors and all the pros and cons. So thank you again!
Hi Martin - I'm so glad that you ended up with a camera that you love! The most important thing for me is to get the right tool for them - it's not about what other people are using. Appreciate you taking the time to share your process with me and for being part of and supporting the channel 🙏
Enjoy the SL3!
I would definitely watch the comparison with the adaptors on.
Thanks for watching and the feedback Joel!
Thank you so much sir for clearing my confusion
Love from India ♥️🇮🇳
Super glad I was able to help! Appreciate the support!
This channel is the best in camera content and more knowledgeable! Keep it up sir, i think this channel needs more subscribers
Thanks brother, appreciate the support!
I decided to buy 250D. After watching your video. Thank sooo much
Sagi! This was a great video, as I love the side by side comparison. I've watched so many of your videos to attempt to buy my first camera. I'm ultimately going with the SL3 as I'm a live streamer! Thank you for the great tips, and I'll be grabbing this stuff using your links!
Hi Matt, I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos. If you're a live streamer, you made the right choice for sure - zero doubt. Thanks so much for the support!! Appreciate having you as part of the channel 🙏👊
Thanks! You really helped me clear my vision! I am starting to get into CZcams and your comprehensive review helped me to finally get the 250D :D
I'm really glad I was able to help. Thank you for being part of the channel and good luck with yours!
I cose the M50 and have had it for over a year. I love this camera for vlogging. And I use adapter for all my other canon lenses. Thanks for your video!
Congrats!! Check out this follow up video I just published: czcams.com/video/Hj_QrxcsXYg/video.html Let me know what you think
Yes yes yes!!!! I choose the sl3 because the battery life , the sound on the screen and hdmi. It is bigger but not so much bigger!! Thank You so much man!!!!! This is the best comparison
I think those are good reasons! Glad it was helpful and thanks for being part of the channel!
I got the sl3 loving it.
CONGRATS!!! Glad you found a good fit!
Amazing video, Thankyou, I find myself in this very predicament, choosing from these two cameras. I am a beginner and intend on doing a multitude of photography and filming including landscape photography, sports photography and filming and also food photography. I have recently held both of these cameras and my personal preference was the the SL3 felt better in the hand. It seems both cameras are very good and both will help me on my beginners journey, so my question is with these cameras being very similar and listening to your advice is the way it feels in the hand enough or should I consider more things.
Thankyou
Lee
You nailed it! I feel the same way - I reach for the SL3 instead of the M50 because it's more comfortable. The biggest advantages of the M50 are that you can see the exposure in the viewfinder and there is the possibility for a speedbooster with EF lenses. If those two don't make you say "I need an m50" then definitely go with the SL3 because you are more likely to use a camera that feel comfortable. Hope that helps.
Wow, I did not realize the SL3 is such a great buy as compared to the M50. 3-2021 I use a Canon 5D Mark II with lots of EF lenses I acquired over the years. I like that the SL3 natively cane use the EF mount lenses. I like the electronic view finder on the M50 and that is the whole reason I am interested in it. But the SL3 has more advantages over the M50. I like to look thru the view finder mostly when I shoot photos. On my 5D I have to use the LCD first to check my exposure and then I look thru the optical viewfinder and that works but is an extra step before I take the photo. I am really tempted to get the SL3 over the M50. But I really want to try an electronic viewfinder and mirror-less camera. I shared this video on my Facebook page.
I was looking at buying my first dslr/mirrorless camera and couldn't decide which - this video was a huge help, so thank you!
You kept my request!
I love you Tech Gear! 💖
Hope you like how it came out. Let me know which camera you liked better at the end.
I don’t know what I should buy.
U have gotten a new subscriber ❤️
What will you use the camera for? Thank you for the support!
Tech Gear Talk I would use it for CZcams Videos and for traveling
Both will do a similar job (as long as you don't need 1080p/24 (which the SL3 can't do).
The M50 is smaller which is nice for traveling but I would suggest that you go to a store and hold both to see which is more comfortable to use.
Tech Gear Talk Thank you❕😊
You're very welcome
Hey, you answered my comment on the SL2 vs. SL3 video yesterday. Thank you so much. I appreciate the fact that you answer your viewers' comments. You are selling me on the M50. It's cheaper and it seems to fulfill all my needs. I was thinking about the SL2, but I can't find any legitimate sellers online. Overall the M50 looks so gnarly. Thank you so much. You are getting a subscribe!
So glad I was able to help and thanks for the Sub!
DAMN you, mr. detailed-camera reviewer. I was JUST about to buy the M50, but then I stumbled upon your video, and was blown away! THIS is how I plan to record my videos too. Calm, straight to the point, no mumbo-jambo nonsense and truly putting the cameras up against one and another + great quality overall. AMAZING review!
If you don't mind answering these 2 questions:
1: Do you have any alternatives/other suggestions for these 2 cameras with about similar specs + a top flip-up screen? I am a noob who's planning to do loads of videographing/vlogging, casual photographing and also live streaming. And from the looks of your video, it seems like the M50 will be better for the videographing while the 250D is better for live streaming (+ the crazy long battery life), while both seem to be strong for the casual photographer within me. So, are there alternatives for these 2 that I should worth considering, or?
2: I see several packages including a variety of lenses, but what's better (for my preferences) between these: a) 18-55/3.5-5.6 IS STM, b) 18-55/4.0-5.6 IS STM and c) 18-55/3.5-5.6 III - cuz they are all priced exactly the same over here (north of Europe).
Surprised to see that you only have 50k+ subs, cuz clearly you should have more! Will be looking forward for more content from you! One of the easiest subs I've done.
Hi there and thank you for the kind words and support 🙏
One other camera I would recommend is this one: czcams.com/video/3Dh2cqok6_o/video.html (start here and there will be a detailed review soon).
As far as lenses, make sure that you have IS (image stabilization) and the lower the aperture values 3.5-5.6 vs 4.0 vs 5.6 the better.
I do recommend that you start with a kit lens: czcams.com/video/z-x-d-K9Jfw/video.html and judging by how thoughtful you are being, you are likely to upgrade in the future.
Of course, EF-M lenses are a different story - start with the 15-45mm and we can talk about upgrades in the future.
I hope this is helpful - let me know if you have any questions.
As for the 50k subs, I'm not too focused on that number. Engaged members of the community like you are more important to me than overall numbers, and it'll grow when it grows.
Welcome, and let me know if you have any questions!
@@TechGearTalk, much appreciated for the reply! I am so confused and uncertain on what to go for... the M50 or 250D for my purposes. Reading all these reviews made even more uncertain. This is my first camera buy, so I don't have any previous cameras/lenses available either. I am not planning to be a professional photography either. Just some casual, hobby, landscape photo+videographing. Yes, I will be using the camera for recording quite a lot, both videos for youtube and also some live streaming. Ah, I will also take a lot of NIGHT scenery photos (aurora borealis, stars etc.) and a lot of faces/people/animals too (both indoor and also outdoor), not so many buildings, though, so having the nice blury background possibility is really a "must". I think I will just go for the M50 kit with the 15-45/3.5-6.3 IS STM (it's the cheapest offer they have, and will probably go ever further down on black friday). That said, they are also offering the kit with the mentioned lens + 55-200/4.5-6.3 IS STM for +€200... is it worth it? Except for the much longer battery life on the 250D, I am missing out on much more if I'd go for the M50, right?
Sorry for the long post, but I hope you will advise me towards the right direction. Much appreciated for the amazing content, sir!
If you're going to live stream, you want either the SL3 or this one: czcams.com/video/Nir8pfvfdFI/video.html (the second is my favorite right now, but is a little more expensive)
Deserving of a New SUB. Done,and Thank you . Appreciate the time and effort put in for this video.
Thanks so much for the feedback and for joining the community Eric 🙏
12:10 so with a 300mm Lens i Would get 480mm Zoom 😂
since 300 * 1.6 is 480 ?
That is correct (if you compare it to a full frame sensor camera) you will get a 480mm equivalent field of view.
Usually if a review or comparison video is more than 10 or 15 minutes, I lose patience and move on. Not only did your video keep my attention, you were very concise with excellent pacing. I went ahead and liked and subscribed. Finally, do you think the SL3 is still a good purchase or is there something else a beginner photographer should get? I’m leaving in May to go to Switzerland to ride the Glacier Express through the Swiss Alps, so I will need to take landscape pictures from a slow moving train. Thanks!
Thanks so much for the feedback Daniel! I think the SL3 is still a good option if you want an entry-level dslr. If you want a mirrorless camera that super powerful and better than the M50, check out this: czcams.com/video/Nir8pfvfdFI/video.html let me know if you have any questions (fyi mirrorless is nice when you're learning, because you see the exposure in the viewfinder).
This video makes me stay put from the start to the end as it really informative and straight to the point🥰💞😍😘 looking forward for more content of yours😘
I'm so glad you liked the video and found it useful! Welcome to the channel!
This is great! Thank you for putting so much effort in your videos, you clearly see the quality and the passion :)
I'm glad the video was helpful. Thanks for the kind words!
Bloopers are always fun lol. Good video
Thanks J! Appreciate the feedback, hope the video was helpful.
Ordered the SL3, given the crop at 4k I'll just figure out how to compensate for these things as I go, thank you for the in depth video
CONGRATS and glad I could help!
Thanks for the breakdown. I was going to pick up the M50 but after watching this video I’m sold on the SL3.
Really good comparison and very helpful in my search for my first camera. My only complaint is that I didn’t really see any low-light photos taken with the M50.
Not sure what I should invest in since lens types, mirrorless/DSLR are all factors. The SL3 seems like the way to go here but the Sony mirrorless stuff also has my attention.
Subscribed for more
Thanks for the feedback Jordan. I’ll add some M50 low light shots for a future video.
The Sony a6400 is another good option if you want to look at Sony. I really liked the a7iii but it’s in another price point czcams.com/video/X0wp0GRgFsk/video.html what will you use your camera for?
Tech Gear Talk Great, thanks! :)
I will mostly be using for basic photography (nature, landscape, lifestyle) and I would also like to begin posting music and music gear related videos to CZcams again, but properly now that it’s 2019;) An articulating screen would be great but not a must-have.
I guess my only hang up with the Sony stuff is the price because I need some other gear and software but at the same time, I don’t want to get something that’s only marginally better than my iPhone. Also, the lack of 24fps HD on the SL3 is kind of a bummer.
Thanks for the feedback!
Looks like your comment got cut off.
Yes, sony gear is $$$
I just got an a6400 and will do a livestream this weekend if you're interested in watching/asking questions. Looks pretty good from my research so far.
@@jordandedomusic if you want a camera for photography SL3 does not accept third-party flashes, which is surprisingly unacceptable. Besides it doesn't has 24 fps in 1920. Again, terrible surprise. What did do Canon with this camera? M50 does not has these problems. About the lenses... Canon has cheaper lenses than Sony. And with an adapter on M50 you can access to the whole world Canon lenses.
Mario Benites thanks for your reply! Great info
Hello sir, I am currently planning to buy the SL2. Should I wait till this SL3 hits the market here in middle east to expect a price reduction on the SL2. Currently SL2 is being sold at a retail price of 590 USD with an 18-55 mm kit lense.
If you're going to buy the SL2 for sure, I would wait a little and you will get a better deal. I'm already seeing that happen in different places. In the US the price difference isn't that big. Is there a release date where you live?
Video was cool, getting a SL3 bruh for filming street skateboarding, cinematography
Thank you for this indepth review. Im shooting CZcams videos and settled on SL3 based on your review.
So glad it was helpful! Let me know if you have any questions once you get it. Here's a tutorial to teach you about the camera: czcams.com/video/zaRjp8vcsk4/video.html
I'm looking for my first profesional camera for nature shots. Would you recommend the m50, sl2 or sl3
Hi Gabrielle - I would probably get the M50 before of the improved autofocus for photography using the EVF. If you plan on using the LCD to frame and set focus, then you can go with the SL3. From an image quality standpoint, they use the same sensor.
Finally Sagi! A huge Thanks!🙏🙏❤❤💯
You're welcome brother! Hope you like it. Let me know what you think.
@@TechGearTalk really helpful, but i think I'm still buying the sl2. And your page is also Very helpful, Thanks again
Glad to hear that. You know I love the SL2 so I think it's a fantastic choice.
Really helpful video, both in terms of the information and especially the explanation. Thank you for making this. More power to you and your channel!
I was leaning towards the M50 because I wanted something more compact and travel friendly but I just found a used SL3 with two lenses for 400USD. I think it's a good deal and it will be great for learning :)
That’s right. You can definitely learn on the SL3 - sounds like a great deal. Congrats. Thank you for being part of the channel!
For photography 👉SL3 is better
For Videography 👉M50 best option
Appreciate you watching and sharing your input 🙏🏻
Thanks
@@lourdyregis7033 sl3 is better by the specifics I think :D
I disagre! I have used the M50 for videography, and it’s SO bad! I would go for the SL3 for both hands Down
@@SimonChristensen619 I have Sl3 ,, Mirror less is batter then Dlr for Videography,,,
But for Videography 👉 SL3 is a good choice cause it's longer Battery🔋
Ur amazing...so underrated
That is so kind of you to say. I’m glad that the videos are useful and grateful to have you in my community 🙏🏻
Wow! Such a fantastic video--thanks!
So glad it was helpful
Your videos have been EXTREMELY helpful. Subscribed!!
I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and for the kind words. Thank you for joining the community 🙏
Which one of these did you like?
cannon moving forward pass the boomer speeds.
thanks for watching. I'm not sure I understand.
@@TechGearTalk you wouldn't get it
ok
Hi do you think we could do a collaboration video of why you need a DSLR
What's going on brother! That's a good topic and one that I've put a lot of thought into. I'll let you know if it's something I think we can do together.
@@TechGearTalk k sounds good I was thinking phone v sl3 EOS R . Or something like that
It would be more conceptual I guess, rather than a comparison.
@@TechGearTalk l email me when you are ready
I'll let you know if it's a fit.
I am mainly looking into photography cameras. And I am inbetween these two, the m6 mark ii and the Sony a6400... I am a beguinner and this really helps. Thank you!
So far this is the only video I’ve found with a clear answer for me at the end. Thank you. I think I’ll go with the SL3.
"tech gear" you cant have everything in one camera. "canon" hold my beer. "canon" releases eos r5
I know right!!! I can't wait for that camera!!!
Just like at least 9 times more expensive but hey 😂😂
@@therealcinnimo I can sell my kidney.. icould.. god gave me two because he knew canon would exist in this timeline..
