Canon is now also announcing the EOS M50 Mark II for Europe, the long-awaited successor to the EOS M50. This camera is aimed particularly at users who create online content.

The new Canon EOS M50 Mark II will be available from the end of March for just over 600 euros.

At first glance, the Canon EOS M50 Mark II looks almost identical to its predecessor. It is a compact mirrorless camera with a wide range of lenses available. With adapters, you can also use lenses for DSLR cameras without any problems.

The camera has a 24-megapixel APS-C sensor with the familiar 1.6x crop compared to a full-frame sensor. This makes the camera compact without making you give up features, including eye-detection autofocus.

The fully articulated screen makes it easy to use the camera for vlogs. This is reinforced by the many options Canon has built in for creating ready-to-use online content.

The Canon EOS M50 Mark II can record in 4K, in both landscape and portrait orientation. This makes it easy to have your video footage ready for vertical content on Instagram and other social media.

As well as 4K, the camera can also record in Full HD and even stream directly to YouTube. There is a 3.5mm microphone input, an HDMI output and, of course, a USB output. The Canon EOS M50 Mark II can easily connect to a smartphone to make all this possible.

    I’m actually still hoping for a successor to my Canon M5 . The M6 without a viewfinder isn’t really for me.
