Last month, when Canon announced the EOS R50, the world (including us here at DIYP) thought this was the final nail in the coffin for Canon’s EOS M APS-C mirrorless camera system. It’s been dying for a few years, with little-to-no updates and not really any word from Canon about what was happening with it. And the EOS R50 does look very much like an EOS M50 Mark II successor.

Canon pretty much confirms EOS M is dead as it announces the Canon EOS R50 APS-C mirrorless camera

The future of Canon’s EOS M system has been a bit up in the air ever since Canon introduced the EOS R in 2018. Well, now, with today’s announcement of the Canon EOS R50, Canon has pretty much confirmed what we’ve all been suspecting for a while. The Canon EOS M APS-C mirrorless camera system is dead and this is essentially the replacement for the Canon EOS M50 Mark II.

It offers some very significant advantages over the EOS M50 Mark II, though. In fact, it pretty much contains the feature set that many were hoping to see in the EOS M50 Mark II when it was announced in 2020. The resolution hasn’t changed (it’s still 24MP), and there’s still no IBIS, but it will let you shoot 4K video using the full width of the sensor – It’s actually oversampled 6K.
