Our Verdict

Sony α6100

Canon EOS R50

The Canon EOS R50 is a bit better overall than the Sony α6100. It has a higher-resolution viewfinder, quicker burst shooting, and better video features. However, the Sony has a wider lens selection, so it could be better if you have your sights set on particular E-mount lenses.
