Is the Canon M50 the ultimate YouTube vlogging camera? Is it worth buying and using in 2020 and beyond?

In this video review, I'll share my hands on experience with the Canon M50, its pros and cons, as well as sample cinematic B-roll sequences and selfie vlogging footage.

I have really enjoyed the flip out screen, external mic support, ease of use, and compact size.

There are some potential downsides to filming in 4K on this camera, including limited FPS, 2.56x crop factor, and more.

I've also found a few quirks with this camera that are neither good nor bad, or can be fixed by changing settings within the menu.
