Our Verdict

Canon EOS R10

Canon EOS R50

The Canon EOS R10 is better than the Canon EOS R50 in most ways, which isn't surprising considering the R10 occupies a higher spot in the model hierarchy. The two cameras share the same imaging sensor, but the R10 has a more robust set of physical controls, has faster continuous shooting speeds, and can record 4k video at up to 60 fps, though with a severe crop. While the R50 is a little more compact, the R10's larger handgrip also makes it more comfortable for a wider range of people.
