Conclusion Verdict
The Nikon Z50 II camera now has much-improved autofocus and also a low-light sensor, which helps to extract the maximum amount of detail possible in uncontrolled lighting environments or in any outdoor location. For wedding and event photography, we recommend you to go with Nikon Z50 II
Now, for sports and wildlife, it depends on which camera you like to buy since both are very capable. But again, due to the presence of a BSI CMOS sensor, the Z50 Mark II camera will perform better in uncontrolled lighting environments, specifically when you are using this camera for wildlife or bird photography. However, for sports events, you can take the Canon R10 with you when there is no big issue with light, as sports events generally happen during daylight. So, you may utilize the R10, and also, in sports events, you may require more reliable autofocus tracking, which is present in the Canon R10 alongside its slightly faster 15 fps mechanical shutter.
For day-to-day usage and street photography, I am going to recommend the Nikon Z50 Mark II camera. Due to the nature of its sensor and construction, the camera is able to capture clear shots and also has high low-light autofocus sensitivity compared to the R10. So more or less, for uncontrolled lighting environments of any type, the Nikon Z50 Mark II is more recommended. 165

Nikon Z50 II Image Quality Test
Nikon Z30 / Zfc Image samples have been taken here since Nikon Z50 II and Zfc, both of them share the same sensor, so image quality is expected to remain exactly same as of the Nikon Z50 Mark II. Image credit dpreview.com
In the Image below we have compared the Nikon Z30 vs Canon R10 Images at ISO 25600, in RAW mode, as you can see the details are much preserved in Nikon Z50 II file
Next comparison Even in the JPEG comparison below you can see that Nikon is preserving more details compared to the Canon R10 FSI CMOS sensor.
During the base ISO test we can see the letters in the Nikon Z50 II are more clearly visible than those of the Canon R10, despite having higher resolution Canon isn’t able to extract the amount of details they should at the base ISO range
In the JPEG Mode, the performance of the Canon R10 Camera is much improved which may be due to JPEG filters the Nikon Z30 sample at base ISO losing a bit of details which was visible in the RAW Mode.
Verdict / Conclusion Image Quality
In terms of image quality, the Nikon Z50 II performs better than the Canon R10 at higher ISO settings, particularly when shooting in RAW mode. The Nikon Z50 II (or Z30) tends to capture more details at higher ISOs due to its 20MP sensor and lack of a low-pass filter, which helps to maintain fine textures.
However, at base ISO, when shooting in JPEG, the Canon R10 may show slightly more detail due to its higher 24MP resolution. But if you’re shooting in RAW at base ISO, the Nikon cameras can still provide a slightly clearer picture due to the low-pass-less design, which can enhance sharpness. Overall, for detail preservation, the Nikon Z50 II’s 20MP sensor has a slight edge, especially for those who prioritize high ISO performance and RAW shooting.

Compact cameras are not outdated yet—Canon still sells the best! Recently, Japanese analyst firm BCN Retail (BCN+R), known for publishing statistical articles, published an article about compact camera market trends. It seems to be different from what we previously understood. Compact cameras still have a certain market share, and the landscape has changed significantly.
Since Casio exited the compact camera market, Nikon has also largely stopped developing related models. Sony and Fujifilm have also significantly reduced their product lineup, which has made many people worried about the future of compact cameras. And with smartphones constantly improving their imaging capabilities, this concern has intensified. But from the conclusions, the compact camera market is not obsolete—it still accounts for 60% of camera sales. Although the revenue share is small, it remains stable.
Among the top 5 manufacturers in September sales, Canon is still far ahead, with its PowerShot series and other models accounting for 31.1% of the market share. Fujifilm, which came in second, contributed 13.4% of the market share with its best-selling “instax mini Evo” (it seems that instant cameras are also included in compact cameras?). Kodak and Kenko Tokina, which came in third and fourth, are known for their value-for-money (or toy cameras), and they have also significantly changed the market. Ricoh, with its popular GR series, took fifth place, showing that there are still many loyal fans of the GR series, which has been around since the film era.

According to a recent interview published by Chinese media, Senior General Manager Zhang Hongtu of the Imaging Information Business Department of Canon China has indicated that Canon’s “Youth Dedicated Mirrorless” series is projected to account for over 60% of Canon’s total camera unit sales in China this year, based on a market sales forecast. This projection highlights Canon’s strategic focus on appealing to a younger, social media-savvy audience.
Canon’s micro audience, largely consisting of young content creators active on social media platforms, has shown a strong preference for compact, entry-level APS-C mirrorless options. These models, including the EOS R7, EOS R10, EOS R50, and EOS R100, are designed to support content creation on the go. This series alone is forecasted to comprise over 60% of Canon’s camera unit sales in China, underscoring Canon’s dedication to meeting the needs of China’s vibrant, young creator community.

As per a recent Canon with Photo Trend interview, the Canon representative confirmed that the rest of the prime lenses, starting from Sigma 16mm to 23mm to 30mm to 56mm, are all coming in January 2025. So, for those who were waiting for these primes to arrive,
But for now, the RF mount aperture is only on APS-C?
Indeed, it only concerns APS-C for now. But all APS-C lenses (DC DN) in the range will be available by January 2025. Similarly, our 4 fixed focal lengths [16, 23, 30 and 56 mm, Editor’s note] will arrive by January.
Canon RF APS-C Primes at B&H Store
Sigma 16mm F1.8 DC DN – B&H Store
Sigma 23mm F1.8 DC DN – B&H Store
Sigma 30mm F1.8 DC DN – B&H Store
Sigma 56mm F1.8 DC DN – B&H Store
Back on February 29 of this year, we received confirmation that Canon had finalized deals with Sigma and Tamron. Shortly after that, in April, Sigma made an official press release announcing a zoom lens, the 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN, along with three prime lenses. Later, Sigma also added a 10-18mm zoom lens and a 23mm F1.4 DC DN prime. The zoom lenses, 18-50mm, and 10-18mm, are available for sale, and you can pre-order them right now at the B&H store. However, shipping for the four remaining prime lenses will start in January 2025.

So we have the Canon R6 Mark III camera specs surfaced over a Chinese source. Specs remain the same as we discussed back in May 2024. We told you that Canon R3’s 24-megapixel stacked sensor will be used inside the Canon R6 Mark III camera. The same information is again shared by the sources. However, here they specifically mention the sensor model code name, take a look below
- 24-megapixel LC1720 sensor.
- DIGIC Accelerator accelerated processor, 8.5-stop collaborative image stabilization.
- Same focus system as EOS R5 II.
- Highly reliable 14-bit 30fps RAW electronic shutter continuous shooting, reading speed 1/180s.
- In-camera neural network noise reduction and high-resolution magnification.
- Supports XF-AVC S and XF-HEVC S recording of C4K/120p (S35) and 6K oversampled C4K.
- Supports 6K30p and 4K60p (S35) Cinema RAW Light recording.
If you talk about the announcement date and based on Canon’s usual pattern for their R5 or R6 series cameras, then as per their schedule, it looks like the R6 Mark III camera will arrive sometime in Q2 or Q3 of 2025. It’s not coming too early, but yeah, we do hope and expect it will arrive with almost the same specs that we are seeing right now.
