After a week of testing it at the NFL Draft, the short answer is no. Here is why:
- The C50 is meant for gimbal work, but its battery life is brutal. You will constantly be swapping out those small LP-E6P batteries if you shoot all day.
- It lacks an electronic viewfinder (EVF). Even though it can take photos, it really doesn’t feel like a hybrid camera without one. I’ll stick to my Canon R5 for photography.
While the C50 is a solid B-cam, it’s definitely not replacing my C80 anytime soon!
