Canon today
announced the launch of EOS M50 Mark II mirrorless camera, designed for
photography enthusiasts who are also keen to do videos and live stream. Whether
you are a parent looking to capture fleeting moments of your child’s
milestones; a frequent traveler looking for a compact and fuss-free shooting
experience; or someone hoping to start your own YouTube channel; the EOS M50
Mark II is designed to help create captivating photos and videos with ease.
Capture Beautiful
Portraits and Vivid Action Shots
Always
had trouble capturing sharp images of your active toddler who is constantly on
the move or find it hard to zoom in on your child’s face as he runs across the
field during game session? The EOS M50 Mark II features an enhanced Eye
Detection AF, which is able to detect and focus on a subject’s eye even when
the person is far away. This will ensure the eye will always stay in focus,
making it possible to use Eye Detection AF for full body shots in addition to
the common upper body portrait shot. Users can capture subjects quickly and
accurately when they are approaching from a distance, making it great for
candid shots as well.
Eye
detection AF is also available with Servo AF when shooting still images and
Movie Servo AF when shooting video, so you will always be able to capture your
subject’s natural expressions even when they are in motion.
The
EOS M50 Mark II has a continuous shooting speed of up to 7.4fps with servo AF
so users can capture multiple shots of moving subjects such as children or pets.
Its built-in high-resolution electronic viewfinder (EVF) makes for easy viewing
even when shooting in the bright outdoors.
The AF
frame display in EVF or LCD screen of the EOS M50 Mark II, which shows which
part of the picture the camera is focusing on, has also been improved. It is
now faster and tracks the subject more smoothly, so users will always know
which part of the picture will be in focus without experiencing any on-screen
lag. Display speed on the AF frame display in the viewfinder or LCD screen has
also been improved on the EOS M50 Mark II, allowing for a better visualization
of the tracking.
An EOS
first, the EOS M50 Mark II makes full use of its touch-sensitive display with
the new Tap AF feature where users can instantly switch focus from one person
to another by just tapping on the screen, which is especially useful in group
shots. This is in addition to the Touch & Drag AF, where users can move the
AF frame by dragging their finger on the screen while shooting through the EVF
Enhanced
Movie Shooting Experience
Fast
and stable AF is essential when it comes to shooting videos of moving subjects.
On the EOS M50 Mark II, Eye Detection AF works with Movie Servo AF shooting. By
simply keeping the subject within the frame while shooting, it will track the
subject smoothly. Users can thus focus on the composition of the video while
leaving the tracking of the subject to the camera.
With
an improved contrast AF algorithm, users can also expect enhanced AF stability
during 4K movies shooting with EF-M lenses. This will enable smooth movie
recording, with reduced wobbling. EOS M50 Mark II supports movie digital zoom (approx.
3-10x) at the central part of the screen during shooting, which can be combined
with optical zoom on a zoom lens to achieve magnified shooting with up-close
shots.
With
existing cameras, movies shot vertically are displayed smaller in a horizontal
position when users play back the movie on a smart device. On the EOS M50 Mark
II, an “add rotate info” option enables
automatic vertical playback on smart devices, PCs and compatible social media,
which enables a better viewing experience.
For
video bloggers, they could even live-stream directly to YouTube[1] directly from
EOS M50 Mark II by connecting to Wi-Fi without using a streaming unit. The EOS
M50 Mark II also supports the Canon’s new
image.canon cloud platform and registered users of the platform can upload,
store, download and transfer images smoothly between various devices. Equipped
with a Vari-angle LCD monitor and features such as touch screen recording,
movie self-timer and an external microphone jack, the EOS M50 Mark II makes
intuitive and easy for Vloggers to record videos and do live streaming.
The
sales for the newly launched EOS M50 Mark II will be starting from December and
it will be priced at an MRP of Rs. 58 995.00/U (inclusive of all taxes).
