Great Beginner Camera
As my first camera, I am happy with it after 3 months of use. I think it is a great teaching camera. I am learning a lot and feel like I can take the photos I want to take. It doesn’t pressure me to buy new lens or a new body. I get at a pretty good price the ability to take photos that surprise me. I recently was gifted a 16mm lens and that made me more addicted. I li...

Great product
The product is absolutely amazing and has worked great for me! If I had to say one con of this product I would say that this product is simple. Not a bad thing, but it limits some of the features on the camera that can be found on other products still a great product and I definitely recommend to beginners and intermediate photographers

This is a really nice camera, and if I was unaware that I bought a refurbished one, I would not be able to tell is wasn't brand new. I looks and operates great. Very happy with my purchase.

Not impressed
I received the camera about a month ago and so far my iPhone 14 ProMax is taking much better pictures than this Canon. Since I missed the return window, I'm stuck with it.

Beginner Friendly
It's a great beginner friendly kit lens, you're able to learn the basics and figure out what works for you.

Great beginner/budget option but possibly a little too compact
This is a very compact camera and lens combo and very ideal if you need something lightweight and discreet to shoot with. I bought this for my wife as a beginner and upgrade from a T6 and it was easy for her to use on our trip to Europe.
The kit lens is very basic in the look and feel and we ended up using the RF 24-105 that I already had which made a huge difference, ...

Compact but Capable and Budget-Friendly
I was looking for a lightweight yet capable camera for video and stills. The R50 has proven pretty handy for both purposes and is definitely a lot more lightweight than the other setups I have.
The stills in particular have been impressive, with most pictures coming out sharp and detailed. It struggles with noise at higher ISO levels (3200+), but it has done the job w...

Refurbished value for a beginner
I really appreciate the value of the Canon refurbished kit. Everything arrived quickly and so far it appears just "like new" and appears to be operating normally. This is my first camera purchase in over a decade (I am a prior point and shoot only photographer) - I am really looking forward to using and learning with this Canon R50. I intend to mainly photograph landsca...

It's perfect for me
Great performance from a small package! Subject detection and eye tracking has been a game changer for me (coming from a DSLR) Low noise even when the ISO needs to be high. I have no complaints other than that the buttons were a little smaller than what I was expecting. Would definitely buy again! I use the 18-45mm kit, the 50mm prime 1.8, and the 100-400 (all RF Lenses...

Easy to focus and get the right exposure.
My first mirrorless camera. I wanted one so I could have some exposure preview in the viewfinder. A couple of things that I have not seen highlighted much in reviews... I'm really pleased with the programable control ring on the lens, which enables me to notice a need to tweak the exposure and do it without taking my eye away from the viewer. I am also really happy to h...

Great "beginner" camera for a good price.
I love my r50 so far, I'm a photography beginner who mostly just took pictures on their phone but wanted something more dedicated and higher quality. For my first "real" camera I think it meets my needs perfectly and I'm very impressed by it. I still need to learn how to get better at shooting manual but everything about it so far has been great, easy to learn, and easy...

refurbished 18 to 150 mm lens is as expected as a lens retooled by Canon. Works great

Great camera with room for firmware improvements
The R50 is an amazing little camera. It packs great image quality and video recording features into a small body. For my skill level, it has features and options beyond what I currently need. The flip-out screen is a very useful feature and worth the extra cost over cheaper models. Unfortunately, there are some firmware glitches that need to be addressed. Controlling th...
