Review on White Canon EOS M50 Mirrorless Vlogging Camera Kit - EF-M 15-45mm Lens, 4K Video, Built-in Wi-Fi, NFC & Bluetooth Technology by Tim York

I'm not a fan of buying something because it's new. I'm a proponent of buying things that solve problems. My problem is that as I age my heavy DSLR and long Canon "L" lenses become too heavy to carry around all day. So I made a list of things that should be and are nice to have. Must-Haves: Small, light, interchangeable lenses (and plenty to choose from), fully articulated LCD, almost no shutter lag, raw processing, at least 8 frames buffer, high performance. ISO, viewfinder (with visible histogram), hot shoe. Nice to have: wireless remote control, iOS app, GPS. This camera contains all items from both lists. (GPS needs to be connected to a phone and drains the battery on both, so I probably won't be using it much) Then there are some unexpected bonuses. First, Canon introduced a new RAW format called CR3. It is highly compressed and lossless, so it saves a lot of disk space. This becomes important at >20 Mpx on modern sensors (here 24, IIRC). The camera came out on March 26th. Adobe updated its software on April 3 to deal with this. You will hear many opinions about what makes a camera a professional camera. Non-photographers judge by weight, and that's just a cliché. A professional camera, in my opinion, has the best weather protection, multiple memory cards, and a large buffer (transfers the image to the card). There will also be more offset between the tripod screw and the battery cover. (To make it easy to change the battery without removing the tripod or plate. Full frame doesn't matter. Imagine an 8x12 picture, maybe from a magazine. Then put a mat on top that has the Sides are 1" thick. The part of the image you see now is 6 x 10. That's what a 1.6 crop sensor does (in round numbers). The part of the image you see is completely untouched. If the lens makers just changed the numbers on the lens itself no one would ever know the lens marked 10mm becomes 16mm but everything else is the same if you like the fisheye look you must use full frame but for everything else doesn't matter, it's a matter of the buffer.Shooting at 30 fps means the buffer fills up quickly (just press and hold the shutter button on your camera and see how quickly it fills up) in the image before it even gets to the buffer and then sent to the card so video means tighter cropping. n, a professional may need a camera with more video capabilities. The only bug I encountered was with a third party lens from Tokina. The new software in the camera was not interacting with the software in the lens, resulting in an error message about dirty ports. After returning the first lens and receiving the second with the same issue, I called Tokina and they told me about the discrepancy. They said they were working on an upgrade firmware that would require me to ship the lens, but no timeline was given for a resolution. (sent back). If you are considering a lens from them or a third party, I suggest giving them a call first. If they fix it I will buy the lens again and update this review. EDITED TO ADD: 1. The thing I miss the most: the wired remote shutter release port. Yes, the smartphone app works, but it burns the battery. Also, there's no option to record a time-lapse that uses an intervalometer (and that feature isn't in the app, although battery wasn't an issue)2. This Arca-Swiss compatible plate fits over the camera leaving room to access the battery compartment. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XK2790Y/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
