Absolutely agree! The new zoom rocker does offer precise control, which is a game-changer for smooth video shots. While losing the viewfinder is a noticeable change, the sleeker design makes the camera more portable and user-friendly. Dual record buttons are indeed a fantastic feature for vloggers, adding convenience without breaking the workflow. Canon has clearly listened to creators, and this update feels very thoughtful! Thank you for your insightful comment!
I’m really interested in the R50V’s new zoom rocker—sounds like it could make video shooting way smoother. But I wonder how much the lack of a viewfinder impacts overall usability for still photography. The dual record buttons seem convenient for vloggers though! Overall, it feels like Canon is targeting a very specific audience with these features.
You’re absolutely right that the new zoom rocker on the R50V is a game-changer for videography—it adds a lot of precision and comfort during shoots. While the lack of a viewfinder might feel limiting for still photography enthusiasts, it’s worth noting that many users adapt quickly and find the rear screen just as effective. The dual record buttons are indeed a thoughtful touch for vloggers, making操作 more intuitive. I think Canon did a great job balancing unique features for specific creators while keeping the camera accessible to a wider audience. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
I’ve been eyeing these cameras for some time, and the new features on the R50V really seal the deal for me. The dual record buttons and video-centric mode dial sound like a game-changer for solo vloggers like myself.
I’m really curious about that new zoom rocker—sounds like it could make a big difference in video smoothness. Do you think the removal of the viewfinder is worth it for most users, or does it feel limiting? Overall, this comparison is super helpful for deciding between these two models. I wonder how the battery life compares between the R50V and the regular R50.
The new zoom rocker is indeed a great addition for videographers—it adds precision and control that can really elevate your footage. As for the viewfinder, it depends on your shooting style; some might find it limiting, but others won’t miss it if they prefer an LCD-focused workflow. Battery life is similar between the R50V and R50, with both offering around 320 shots per charge, so that’s not a major differentiator. Thanks for your thoughtful questions—I hope this helps clarify things as you decide!
I’ve been debating between the R50V and R50 for my next camera, and this review really helped clarify things. The dual record buttons on the R50V sound amazing for vlogging, but I still wonder if the photo capabilities are worth sacrificing for that extra video focus. Overall though, it seems like Canon really nailed the videographer-friendly features here!
