Which should you buy?
Enthusiast Photographers Who Prioritise Style And Resolution — X-T50 (2024): The most stylish 40MP camera available — a Film Simulation dial, a compact body, and flagship sensor quality.
Compact Travel & Content Creation — A7C (2020): The A7C proves full-frame doesn't have to be bulky. Excellent battery life, reliable Eye AF and a vari-angle screen in a pocketable body is a compelling combination for travel and content creators. The A7C II improved on it, but the original remains a strong value buy.
