Canon EOS R50 (2023)

Canon's entry RF-mount body keeps cabling minimal: the USB-C digital terminal runs at USB 2.0 speeds (Hi-Speed — worth knowing before you buy a 10Gbps cable) but does support USB-PD charging, and the Micro HDMI Type D output covers playback and clean feeds within HDMI 1.4-class bandwidth. There's a 3.5mm mic input but no headphone jack, and the single SD slot is UHS-I. Remote release is wireless-only — there's no E3 remote terminal on this body.

Entry APS-C mirrorless with USB-C (USB 2.0 speed, PD charging), Micro HDMI out, 3.5mm mic input, and a single UHS-I SD slot.
