Features
As a cinema camera, the EOS C50 lacks an electronic viewfinder. All available kits include a top handle that can be attached to the main camera body. This top handle includes additional audio inputs and multiple controls.[3] Like its predecessor, the C50 includes an active cooling system to prevent overheating while in operation.
The EOS C50 features a 32-megapixel full-frame active-pixel sensor with dual conversion gain at film speeds of ISO 800 and 6400 for the high and low gain steps, respectively. The sensor is capable of recording full-resolution video with the sensor's full width and height, making the EOS C50 the first Canon camera capable of "open-gate" recording.[2]

Reception
Prerelease reception to the EOS C50 was positive. Digital Camera World noted the camera's improved specifications over the comparable Sony FX3, particularly its open gate video capabilities.[4] CineD stated that the C50 outperforms its competition in most respects, though noted that its lack of a mechanical shutter and in-body image stabilization gave the FX3 an advantage for still photography.[5] TechRadar praised the C50's improvements over the Canon EOS R5 C with respect to video production, namely the ability to rig the camera with accessories that could not be used on the latter.[6]
