Sharmishta Sarkar, highlights that the Canon EOS M50 Mark II maintains the compact and lightweight design of its predecessor, making it an excellent travel companion. The camera features a 2.36-million dot electronic viewfinder (EVF) and a fully articulating 1.04-million dot LCD touchscreen. While the autofocus performance is commendable, especially with Canon's Dual Pixel AF system, the lack of in-body image stabilization and the use of contrast-detect AF in 4K video mode are noted drawbacks.

The Canon EOS M50 Mark II is a solid option for easily taking stills and video on the go. While 4K video quality isn't great, and live streaming limitations are disappointing, the still images it produces are pleasing. The camera is also quite comfortable in the hand, despite its very compact size. It's particularly suitable for casual and social photographers, as well as videographers who don't require 4K.
