Canon EOS C50 Cinema Camera
The Canon EOS C50 is built for creators who work under pressure, engineered for professionals who do it all, whether solo or within a lean crew. From interviews to socials, weddings to independent film making, this camera earns its place on every job. This is Canon's smallest and lightest professional cinema camera yet, opening a world of cinematic possibilities.
The EOS C50 packs a 7K Full Frame sensor with Open Gate RAW recording, 32MP stills, professional I/O and modular handle.
The EOS C50 is positioned as a bridge between the EOS / PowerShot V Series and the Cinema EOS line-up, offering a versatile option for content creators seeking more advanced video capabilities without stepping fully into high-end cinema gear. It is the fifth RF-mount Cinema EOS camera and sits between the EOS R5 C and EOS C70 in Canon’s video line-up. Notably, it is also the second Hybrid Cinema EOS camera, blending the portability and flexibility of mirrorless with the pro-level features of Canon’s Cinema EOS system.
