AS Canon’s flagship mirrorless M camera for
enthusiasts, the EOS M5 really opens up the
DSLR vs CSC debate. It shares much of the tech
as the 80D, but swaps the optical viewfinder for
an electronic version, making this compact
system camera a pocket rocket.^Sensor 24.2Mp APS-C CMOS

THE M50 produces the same quality and
performance as the more expensive M5.
Its features probably won’t tempt any Canon
DSLR users to the mirrorless camp, but for new
users looking for a smaller body and trying to get
into photography, it’s a marvellous route inside
the Canon system.Sensor 24.2Mp, APS-C CMOS
