The Canon EOS R50, being the most compact mirrorless and lightweight RF-mount camera that Canon has to date, is perfect for beginners and less experienced users like me. Despite it being so compact in size, it still maintains high image quality and performance which is comparable to other higher end cameras. It has the capability of burst shooting of up to 15 frames per second at a resolution of 24.2 megapixels, partnered with APS-C CMOS sensor and DIGIC X processor.

I brought the EOS R50 with me on my recent cruise trip to test out some of the features. Thanks to the amazing auto focus mode, it was rather easy for me to shoot with it. With its HDR PQ mode, it enables the image to have a wide dynamic range with a more realistic colour tone without editing.

The EOS R50 also included a new feature in its Special Scene (SCN), the Panoramic Shot. The function allowed me to take in the breath-taking structure and landscape in one unbroken shot while I was onboard. I was very satisfied with the high-resolution and breathtaking panorama photos I was able to capture with the EOS R50.
