It offers the user a lot of control without being overwhelming.

Overall, the Canon EOS M50 is a well-designed, easy-to-use camera.

The electronic viewfinder is also a nice inclusion. The back of the camera is laid out well, but the highlight is the excellent Vari-angle touchscreen display. When shooting in manual mode or adjusting exposure compensation, it's helpful to see the result of your changes via live view. You can adjust a lot of settings, including shutter speed and aperture, right on the touchscreen display. If you don't want to use many physical controls, the touchscreen user interface along with the Quick Menu works great. The control dials are fine, although they rotate perhaps a bit too freely to easily make precise changes to shutter speed, aperture or other shooting parameters. The shutter release has a good amount of travel distance and works well for focusing and shooting. The button layout is quite good, too, and they feel nice to use. The Canon EOS M50 shares a lot of its design with prior EOS M cameras. The articulating display also makes working at unusual angles very easy, such as shooting from down low or holding the camera up high. With that said, thanks to the excellent fully articulating design of the rear display, it is not difficult to orient in such a way that you can eliminate the glare. The viewfinder works well too, particularly in conditions when the light is too bright to easily see the rear display. Further, the M50 also has an electronic viewfinder, something the Canon EOS M6 lacks. It may not have as many physical controls as the M5, but the M50 does have a very useful Vari-Angle touchscreen display. The Canon EOS M50 is a well-designed camera that is quite easy to use.
