If with mobile phones we saw an evolution towards increasingly larger screens, it seems that with wearables we are moving in the opposite direction. Whoop has managed to find the key in a tremendously competitive segment: its bracelet without a screen is the germ of the Fitbit Air that I have been wearing for the last two weeks. This has allowed me to know something very specific: having to look at everything on my phone is not my ideal use. You are interested in following the activity, not recording exercise. You need to disconnect from the screens. You are looking for a comfortable device to track your health. You are an athlete who needs to have a record of your training. You like to leave your cell phone at home when you do sports. You want to avoid subscriptions. The essentials in 30 seconds The Fitbit Air is an old-fashioned fitness tracker, without a screen. It’s like the Original Mi Band: All information must be consulted in the app. This eliminates at once part of the appeal for any amateur athlete: the bracelet does not have GPS, it cannot record outdoor workouts, it does not allow you to follow the coach from the screen and, ultimately, does not release the smartphone. Yes of notifications. The Fitbit Air adequately records steps, measures heart rate accurately as long as your heart rate does not increase, offers easy use without a subscription (like a basic activity bracelet) and includes tools such as a personal trainer, workouts, extended information and more under Fitbit Premium Google Health Premium. Google has looked to its competition, Whoop, for its subscription model. The accessory has a very specific audience, among which I am not: who only needs the bracelet to motivate activity. Google aims for a calm profile, far from the athlete who would use a Garmin. Even far from those who would choose a smartwatch as an extension of their mobile phone: the Fitbit Air seeks to cut out notifications to focus on what is essential: movement. Their approach to health measurement is also important. If you’re looking for motivation to get off the couch, and you don’t want an uncomfortable accessory on your wrist, the Fitbit Air may be for you. Google Fitbit Air – Activity Bracelet with Physical Activity, Heart Rate and Sleep Monitoring – Personalized AI-Based Advice – Up to 7 Days of Battery – Raspberry The price could vary. We earn commission from these links Our experience with the Fitbit Air Comfort above all. What I like most about the bracelet is that it looks like you’re not wearing anything. It is light, compact, fits well on the wrist and the nylon strap is very nice (I am a fan of these straps). What I don’t like is not having a screen: more than once I found myself turning my wrist to check the time. I understand those who are looking for a Fitbit Air to complement their watch, I prefer not to carry two devices. How am I doing, Fitbit Air? Google has focused on Whoop to focus the Fitbit Air on well-being and health, not so much on exercise. Measure heart rate, SpO2, temperature, stress, breathing or sleep. More or less what is usual for an activity bracelet. The data is good without reaching maximum reliability: the variety of heart rate is high and in the step count I have seen a certain margin of error. Not to mention distance estimation: since it doesn’t have GPS, the margin of error is enormous. The coach is the best of the bunch. Gemini disguises himself as a trainer under our orders. So this is the best thing about the software: you can ask it for workouts, to explain your health status, stretching, or, as it occurred to me, a Pilates plan. Since Google knows a lot about me, it was able to adapt a plan to me with precision. It is an AI adapted 100% to the Fitbit Air and its data. The coach is the best of the bunch. Google offers the trainer, and some added features, under the Premium subscription. With the purchase of the Air, three months of the plan begin. And there is something better: if you have Google One Pro or higher you already have Google Health Premium. It is a complement that is very worthwhile, since it not only tells you how healthy you are, it also creates training plans, sessions and any other approach related to health and sports. You can register the sport with it. But…It is far from what a GPS watch can do. Measuring running distances is useless, the same with walks (in performance data it comes out well). Also, since you don’t have a screen you can’t see how the practice is going. The Fitbit Air automatically records steps, but for sports practices you must necessarily go through the smartphone. There will be those who prefer this way of training, I like to forget about the phone as much as possible. The recording is sufficiently precise, as I said before, but the calculations tend to err in high intensity situations. Less battery than expected. Not having a screen I imagined that the autonomy would be high. Error: with everything active, the battery lasts a week, as Google promises. Charging is done using a magnetic base and takes an hour and a half to complete (ten minutes saves the day). Again, all the information related to the charging status must be checked from the mobile phone, since when you double tap the LED it only gives us two pieces of information: white LED, it has a charge; Red LED, danger. And that’s it.

First of all: who names appliances like microwaves, ovens, washing machines and stuff? How difficult it is to then recommend or know which one to buy, and I say this with experience: less than a year ago I bought an apartment and had to set up the kitchen and its associated appliances. What a shame I didn’t know about the existence of this product segment, because the LG MJ3965BP is not just another microwave (like the one I have), it is a three-in-one: microwave, oven and airfryer. They say that he who covers a lot, takes little, so we have tested it thoroughly and this has been our experience. ✅ Buy it if… You have little space in the kitchen. The size of air fryers falls short. You are a fan of microwaves and you think they are underrated. ❌ Don’t buy it if… There are a lot of people at home. You already have an oven and (especially) a good air fryer. You want a simple and cheap microwave. The essentials in 30 seconds The LG MJ3965BP is an oven, microwave, grill and air fryer. I don’t want to entangle you with psychological technicalities about air fryers (you can go deeper here), I’ll just summarize it like this: They are mini convection ovens. and that’s just what we have here, a small oven that also has a microwave function. Come on, he can cook with waves and air and he does it with flying colors. When I was little I remember the legendary microwaves with a grill function that you almost had to put in the burner to toast that gratin lasagna after waiting an eternity, but nothing could be further from the truth: this one goes like a shot and actually toasts food before the oven. As for the airfryer, it has fine print: you can put whatever you want, but limited to 300 grams. There it cooks like the best air fryers because it has power and by adding such a small amount, the cooking is uniform. I don’t know about you, but I usually put more in. If that happens, your best bet is to use the oven version. For a microwave it is large, but for an oven it is small, which makes it precisely a solution for those homes where there is no oven, either because you don’t have space or because you are renting and your kitchen already came like this. In that case, here you have a three-in-one solvent for all types of preparations. LG MJ3965BPS – Microwave Oven, 4 in 1, with Digital Display, 39 Liters and 1100 W, Smart Inverter and EasyClean Function, Cooks Faster, Maintains Flavor, Black The price could vary. We earn commission from these links Our experience with the LG MJ3965BP A great design in every way. When I took it out of the box the first thing I said was blasphemy: it’s heavier than a regular microwave and it was difficult for me to take it out. And also find a place for it, because it doesn’t fit on the shelf where my resident microwave is. Finally, I found a space on the counter for this 39-liter capacity pot. The good thing is that it has a very striking and modern mirrored finish. To operate it, little story: a touch panel, a screen and a roulette wheel and everything you need to know is on a sheet of paper on the side of the door. Ideal for impatient people who don’t read instructions. This little oven is very big. After the drama of finding a place for it, the joys come: the great handicap of air fryers in general is that there are things that you can’t fit into, but in this LG MJ3965BP, unless the whole family comes, there is plenty of space to fit a whole chicken. And in 50 minutes you have it this golden, a little less than the required hour in my oven. You just have to choose the “Roast and Bake” function and little else. That the plate rotates is a plus for uniform cooking and since there is interior light, you can keep an eye on it without having to open the door. In short, power is not a problem and that brings advantages: you save time in the oven, you use less energy and you fit more than in a deep fryer. Excellent in microwave. It may be the least exciting, but it more than accomplishes the tasks of evenly heating those leftovers, defrosting bread, boiling water for an infusion… What has surprised me most here is that it minimizes the endemic evil of microwaves: you heat a plate of meatballs and while one is hot, the other is cold. The power and rotation help, but the way of heating food with waves is more homogeneous compared to most microwaves I have tried (which are the typical basic ones for 50 – 100 euros). TOirfryer may be saying a lot. With some potato sticks in the next dish, my doubt was whether to bake them or put them in air fryer mode. I ventured to try the second option and there I was disappointed: it is limited to introducing 300 grams of food. With that amount or less you ensure that the food is spread out and cooked and toasted quickly, that is to say: the airfryer function in its most favorable conditions. But who makes only 300 grams of potatoes? I took a gamble by disobeying the instructions and tried it and here I found that it was much more difficult for them to achieve that golden brown. Maintenance: leave a cloth nearby. The finish is a real magnet for grease marks (which, on the other hand, lend themselves to appearing on a device that is used for cooking), so it is better to have a cloth nearby. The good thing is that being completely flat and with hardly any nooks, it is cleaned just as … Read more

You know those products that you take out of the box and say “wow!”? Well, Sony’s new headphones are just this. They are high-end headphones with a more premium character that not only know how to convey what they cost, but also know how to make you fall in love at first sight (and hearing). I’ve been using them for a few weeks now. Sony 1000X The Collection and this has been my experience. ✅ Buy it if… Are you looking for comfortable and beautiful headphones to use? chill at home. You want good sound and noise cancellation. You have music in high definition and you don’t mind using a cable. ❌ Don’t buy it if… You want cheap headphones, because these, precisely, are not. You are going to use them to listen to compressed music on Spotify or YouTube Music. You are looking for versatility and to be able to wear them at home, on the street or when playing sports. The essentials in 30 seconds The Sony 1000X The Collexion are headphones with a excellent finish, very premium and surprisingly comfortable. They are quite a design exercise that works well, although the reality is what it is: I would try not to take them out of the house too much because that (beautiful) finish is as beautiful as it is fragile. They sound very good and cancel noise almost at the level of their brothers 1000XM6. It is difficult to fault the sound quality. Sony knows what it’s doing and it shows. What doesn’t quite work are the software additions, such as DSEE and Upmix, which, although striking on paper, are functions that tend to go unnoticed and whose use is more testimonial. The battery has a decent autonomy, certainly not the best on the market; and the connectivity, although correct, could be better if we think about using it in mobility. However, and be that as it may, the truth is that these headphones convince, especially if we understand them in their context. The rival, yes, they have in their own house and it is better and cheaper. 9.1 Design 9.5 Sound quality 9.0 noise cancellation 9.2 Ergonomics 9.0 Usage experience 9.25 Autonomy 8.7 in favor They have some of the best noise cancellation I’ve tried to date. The materials are exceptional and the finish feels very premium. They sound great, on par with the best against The material, although it feels scary, raises questions about its durability Specific functions, such as Upmix or DSEE, do not make a difference They are very expensive Sony 1000X The COLLEXION Luxury Wireless Bluetooth Headphones, with Premium Noise Canceling, Hi-Res Studio Sound; 360 Spatial Audio; Rugged Case; Platinum, New Model The price could vary. We earn commission from these links Our experience with the Sony 1000X The Collexion Sony X1000 The Collection | Image: Xataka Beautiful not to take them out of the house. The Sony 1000X The Collexion are beautiful headphones and that is undeniable. They are expensive and it shows from minute one. The cups and headband are made of a synthetic leather that combines great with the stainless steel of the hinges. They are very pretty, they are very comfortable (I would say the most comfortable I have ever tried), they feel light (although they are not) and they are for use at home. Synthetic leather suffers a lot from inclement weather, friction and knocks, so a bad gesture will leave a mark for life. Sony includes a very nice fabric-finished carrying case, but it also runs the risk of getting dirty relatively easily. However, it is useful and good to have on hand because the headphones, unfortunately, cannot be folded completely. An impressive sound. They sound exactly what 600-odd euro headphones should sound like. It is a clean sound, punchy when it needs to be and with amazing clarity in the highs. I have enjoyed them like a dwarf listening to Nu Metal, but also soundtracks and jazz, even at high volumes. It is one of those headphones that you can use for hours and hours without getting tired and that are difficult to find fault with. Of course, they won’t surprise you if you’re used to high-end headphones, all things considered. Much of the price we pay is justified by the design, not the sound. And the noise? Sony knows what it is doing in this field. The WH-1000XM6 are the best in this field and these are just one step below. They cancel noise to a level that borders on the absurd. Not just those at home, like my 3D printers or air conditioning. I’m talking about the noise of cars on the road or the noise inside a bus. I don’t have the slightest complaint. If the cancellation of the WH-1000XM6 is the best I have tried, this is the second without a doubt. Sony X1000 The Collection | Image: Xataka The software stuff that… well… These headphones come with two functions that, honestly, I can’t quite see. The first is DSEE, a system that “fixes” the compression of Bluetooth codecs via software. It is not always noticeable and, when it is, it is little noticeable. The second is Upmix, a system that simulates a kind of spatial audio that, in theory, puts us in the middle of the stage. Phew. The idea is good, but the execution is so-so. It sounds too artificial and, on rock songs in particular, very strident. The management application is called Sound Connect and is available at iOS and Android. Battery ok, but not outstanding. The headphones promise up to 24 hours of autonomy with active noise cancellation, a figure that is not low at all, but it is not on par with what other proposals on the market offer. I insist, it is not a bad autonomy, but its XM6 brothers are at 30 hours and the JBL Tour One M3 They are around 40 hours, in both cases with noise cancellation active. When they … Read more

One of the most ambitious robot vacuum cleaners on the market has just passed through our analysis floor: the Dreame X60 Pro Ultra Complete, the flagship of a brand that sounds new but has a lot of tradition and it shows. Nevertheless, started as a Xiaomi supplier. He already left us with a great taste in our mouths with his predecessor, the Dreame X50 Ultraand has shown that its pulse does not tremble when it comes to innovating by adding legs and arms to its robot vacuum cleaners or connecting it to the drain. This latest installment experiments with something that promises: unscrewing its mops and side brush like never before. ✅ Buy it if… You have a big house, full of corners and nooks. You’re a techie and you’re looking for a robot vacuum cleaner that’s up to par. You live with pets. ❌ Don’t buy it if… Technology is not your thing. You don’t want to spend a lot of money. You have little space at home. The essentials in 30 seconds The Dreame X60 Ultra Complete is an elegant robot vacuum cleaner that cleanliness is its strong point: Between its enormous suction capacity, double central rubber brush and an extendable side brush, it is the best we have tried for vacuuming floors. And we have pets at home. Mopping is not far behind: unless you drop a glass of soda, you can practically forget about the mop. The most surprising thing is that it is as if it “sees” spots and obstacles and acts accordingly. Between the fact that there is plenty to clean and that the navigation is quite well optimized, it has battery life for a while. However, something that stands out is how fast it charges: for a small apartment for mine it doesn’t matter too much, but if you have a large house, that fast charging is a real plus. This is a robot vacuum cleaner for technology lovers and it is not only because it is packed to the gills with it (retractable, by the way), it is because the app has boring options to personalize the cleaning to your liking and even to immortalize moments of your pets when it is cleaning (don’t panic: according to Dreame, the images do not go to any cloud. Of course, don’t techies, refrain: between the options and the fact that the interface is not the most intuitive in the world, it is easy for profiles like my mother gets into a ball. DREAME The price could vary. We earn commission from these links Our experience with the Dreame X60 Pro Ultra Complete A beautiful design that makes a difference. It is an elegant robot vacuum cleaner that catches the eye. Although it may not seem like it because the base occupies its own space, it is easy to find space for it at home without there being “visual noise.” But beyond the aesthetics, what is really interesting are the details that make the difference: the retractable txapela (ideal for sneaking under cabinets), the two central rubber brushes that are great in a home with pets like mine, the front brush and the two mops. These two extend up to 12 and 18 centimeters respectively, something that really helps to clean better. almost unmissable. A laser on the txapela, a camera on the front and AI are responsible for refined navigation: it doesn’t turn around too much, or get lost, or run over things on the floor (and there are a few in my house), although sometimes it errs on the side of conservativeness. This can cause areas to be left uncleaned. As for obstacles, it overcomes obstacles of a couple of centimeters well and, curious fact, it is the first time that I can leave the patio window open without the robot trying to escape. Don’t let me know that there is a dirty corner left. Where the Dreame In addition, these two rollers efficiently trap hair, no matter how small and fine it may be. Its effectiveness with carpets deserves special mention: here that maximum power really comes from cinema. Of course, if the carpet is hairy, you will still have to vacuum it by hand very occasionally. There is one person responsible for the fact that in these weeks of testing I have not had to take the broom or the mop out of the closet: the ability to dislodge the arm of the side brush and mops to better reach nooks and crannies. Because yes, it is also one of the vacuum cleaners that scrubs best: between the cleaner, what is self-cleaning and the action of friction – rotation, it eliminates difficult stains and even small spills. And it lasts, and lasts, and lasts… By putting it only on suction at maximum power (something you won’t have to do unless the floor is very, very dirty), it has completed the cleaning of a 55 square meter apartment in 50 minutes, using 64% of the battery. Using a medium power, a larger floor should not be a problem. If it runs out of battery, it not only returns to the base, charges and continues, but it does so with something rare in these devices: using fast charging. In five minutes it charges to 25%. A very complete app, for better and for worse. The app has absolutely everything you could want to control your robot vacuum cleaner and more. It allows, for example, to choose the order of the rooms or adjust how often to wash the mop. Of course, the interface is complex, has translation errors and may not be intuitive. In fact, for non-techie profiles like my mother, a simplified mode that will show only the essential settings would be great. Low and easy maintenance. In these weeks of testing, the only thing I have had to worry about is emptying the dirty water tank and filling the clean water tank, approximately once and twice a week, respectively.

I have been tied to a keyboard or a touch screen for so long that when I signed up for Language School it seemed very strange to me to carry a notebook and pen to take notes again. So as soon as I had the opportunity to get my hands on a digital notebook, I didn’t think much about it: the naturalness of writing by hand and how comfortable and practical it is to study with digitized text afterwards: without having to tear out pages, waste time going clean or having crossouts. Or trying to read my handwriting, which I can tell you is terrible. I had been thinking about buying a digital notebook for some time precisely because of those advantages they offer. If it also has artificial intelligence functions to transcribe voice recordings or translate like the iFlytek AI Note 2I was clear: where should I sign? This is a high-flying digital notebook and that has its B side: it is not suitable for all pockets, including mine. ✅ Buy it if… You want a large but light and stylish digital notebook. You are looking for a device compatible with third-party Android apps and the Google ecosystem. You also want to work with your voice. ❌ Don’t buy it if… Subscription passes. You also want it as a reader (it does not have a backlight). You don’t want to spend a lot of money. The essentials in 30 seconds The iFlytek AI Note 2 is a digital notebook with a 10.65-inch black and white e-ink display. Everything you write or draw with the stylus you can have in a short time on your tablet or on your computer thanks to the fact that it is Compatible with essential and most used third-party appsfrom the Google suite (essential for me because it is the one I use in my work and in class) to Notion or Trello. The secret? Which runs on Android 14 and has Google Play. If you like notebooks and writing the old way, the writing experience is agile, pleasant (that little rubbing noise becomes addictive) and immediate, since the latency is minimal. The range of brushes available and their pressure sensitivity is good, but it does not reach the level of excellence of other brands such as Wacom. Between its wide compatibility and how natural it feels to write by hand, I find it great for taking notes. Of course, if you want it to draw, there are better options. That it has a microphone seemed like a bonus to me, for example, to take notes out loud (literally) in class, for presentations and meetings, or voice commands from the AI. Precisely that versatility is what makes it different: it is a vitaminized digital notebook with a lot of potential in professional settings. Of course, taking into account what it costs, expectations are very high and you do not expect it to have some paid functions or that the AI ​​to transcribe text can clearly be improved. What does that subscription offer? For 5.99 euros/month or 60 euros per year you unlock offline transcription, support more AI models (by default, GPT-5), unlimited note synchronization, and an extended warranty program. iFLYTEK AINOTE 2 Smart E-Ink 10.65 Inch Tablet | Ultra-Slim Digital Notepad for Professionals | AI Transcription, Translation and Meeting Summary |

The specifications sheet of the Realme P4x suggests that something is missing, but here is the twist: when you do without what is not essential, you discover that what matters works surprisingly well. In our tests, we have been able to verify that the P4x is better than it seems. And that is what makes it interesting for an audience that does not want to pay for specifications that they will never use. ✅ Buy it if… You have a tight budget of around 200 euros. Do you want a mobile phone enough to answer whatsapps and browse social networks. You want to have a battery with which you can forget about the charger for days. ❌ Don’t buy it if… You want a mobile phone to play demanding games. You give high importance to the photography section. You are looking for a compact phone. The essentials in 30 seconds The Realme P4x is a entry-level mobilewhich already rules it out as an option for those looking for maximum performance and an ultra-versatile set of cameras. But just because it’s a “cheap” phone doesn’t make it a bad device. In fact, he balances his forces very well. The strongest point of this mobile is in its huge 7,500 mAh battery which, as I tell you, will serve to provide two days of use (and even more). It combines it with an LCD screen that at a technological level is far from the best, but is nourished by 120 Hz refresh rate and a very good calibration. It is also a good mobile for take photosalthough without great results. It is a compliant device if there is one and whose price factor It will be essential to unbalance the balance. And it starts at 220 euros, although in its first days of launch it has an offer that makes it even more affordable. 6.6 Design 6.5 Screen 6.5 Performance 5.0 Camera 5.0 Software 7.0 Battery 9.5 in favor Autonomy is a scandal.

We earn commission from these links Our experience with the Realme P4x Image: Xataka Big, but manageable. The Realme P4x is a big phone, but it doesn’t feel slippery and it’s easy to reach its entire button panel (on the right side) even with one hand. It doesn’t feel like it has premium material, but it is still comfortable in hand and, although its camera module stands out, it doesn’t “dance” when placed on a table. Approved screen and sound. The Realme P4x makes it clear from the first glance that it is an entry-level mobile, with large frames and a front camera in waterdrop format. Its IPS screen does not stand out for its excellent calibration, but it offers a balanced experience with good viewing angles, sufficient brightness indoors and a refresh rate of 120 Hz. Where it is weakest is in the sound, with a single speaker that offers somewhat canned and not very powerful audio, although it maintains good connection options by allowing Bluetooth headphones, USB-C and a 3.5 mm jack. Adjusted performance. The phone has a Unisoc T250, a much lower profile processor than the ones we usually find in other Android phones. On a day-to-day basis it does not present any major problems and moves applications such as WhatsApp, Google Maps, YouTube, Instagram or the browser, and even some casual games, with ease, although it takes time to load and open them. It is not a processor designed to play demanding titles and has an important limitation: it is not compatible with 5G networks. No battery surprises (and that’s a good thing). The battery is one of its strong points thanks to the 7,500 mAh capacity. With normal use, that is, social networks, messaging and some casual games, you can easily exceed two days and even get close to three. The fast charging system has a power of 45W and takes an hour and a quarter to fully charge, although it is possible to achieve a few extra hours of autonomy with occasional charges of 15-20 minutes. Needless to say, the charger is not included in the box. Enough camera. This device has on the back a 50 megapixel sensor and another 2 megapixel monochrome sensor, which I already told you is purely testimonial, since it is not used for any special photo mode, but is a support for the main one that is barely noticeable. The results are acceptable, although with a certain tendency to over-saturate the colors. The portraits usually have a good level of cropping, although in some examples like the previous one there are some errors when focusing on part of the background when it shouldn’t. Daytime rear camera | Image: Xataka Rear camera with night mode | Image: Xataka The front camera is the section with the most room for improvement, with lower color quality and naturalness, as well as a portrait mode that tends to fail when it comes to separating the subject from the background.

A camera designed for those who prioritize video without giving up photography. And at an affordable price. Canon has thought of content creators and video fans with a very complete entry optionbut maintaining simplicity of use, compact size and providing real solutions that work. This is how we could define the Canon EOS R50 V (where the “V” is the definitive statement of intent of the term vlogging) that we analyze in depth.

Its body is compact and the set is very light (mainly constructed of high-resistance polycarbonate), which is comfortable in freehand recording sessions. The side of the Canon EOS R50V includes another thread for vertical use on tripods and stands But there are two design decisions that significantly improve the ergonomics of this model for the content creator accustomed to working alone: He front record button: Located next to the grip, it allows you to start or stop the capture completely naturally when the user is self-recording, eliminating the inconvenience of blindly searching for the upper trigger. The lateral thread for vertical format: In addition to the traditional thread on the base, Canon has integrated a second thread on the side of the grip. This allows the camera to be mounted natively vertically on tripods or gimbals, making it easy to create vertical video content such as Instagram Reels, TikTok or YouTube Shorts without the need for accessories. The Canon EOS R50V Creators Kit includes a small tripod, remote control, microphone and memory card. A complete piece of equipment for multiple uses. The content creator kit provides added value, with accessories that are not just filler, but really practical and of decent quality. He Mini Tabletop Tripod: When closed, its compact legs form an ergonomic handle suitable for freehand work. He remote control: Vital for automating remote shooting without having to constantly move to the camera body. He microphone Multi-function hot shoe: Canon takes advantage of the digital pins on its new hot shoe to power and transfer audio from the included compact-sized microphone. The audio record is clean, precise and with a very low background noise level. The EOS R50V screen rotates 180º and allows comfortable recording while facing the camera. The video performance of the Canon EOS R50 V is, without a doubt, its strongest purchase argument. The camera does not crop the sensor or rescale in the usual way; instead, it uses the full width of its APS-C sensor to capture information at 6K resolution and, through oversampling, compresses it into a 4K UHD file at 30 fps. The result is a remarkable sharpnesswith highly defined textures and great chromatic fidelity. The real blow to the table in this version V is the inclusion of the Canon Log 3 (C-Log 3) color profile in 10 bits. For the food or travel content creator, for example, this translates into the ability to save highlights (such as spot lamps in a dark restaurant) and recover detail in the deeper shadows of the scene during the editing stage. Added to this is the software elimination of the limit of 60 minutes of continuous recording in 4K (which, for example, has its sister the EOS R50), which expands the possibilities for longer recordings, video podcasts or interviews. The stabilization system (IS) of the Canon EOS R50V is digital, with two modes, normal and enhanced (with cropping). As for the stabilizationthe camera delegates all the work to the software through its digital stabilization. With two options. The “Standard” mode delivers on static or smoothly panned shots, and the “Enhanced” mode introduces substantial cropping to the image. The continuous focus system: Dual Pixel II precision Another very notable aspect of this EOS R50 V is its autofocus system. Incorporates the appreciated system Dual Pixel CMOS AF II which behaves with truly remarkable speed and consistency. In video recordings, where light contrasts are high and, in addition, we record a handheld camera with constant movement, the tracking of the subject, and specifically the human eye, has millimeter precision, even if the subject wears glasses or turns his head briefly. With Canon EOS R50V: 1/100 s; f/5.6; ISO 800 Special mention deserves the inclusion of the “Product Showcase” mode (Product Showcase AF). Designed specifically for product reviews or videos, where the camera algorithm Automatically prioritizes any object that approaches the target instantly and accurately. As soon as the object moves out of shot, the focus returns to the presenter’s eye with cinematic smoothness and without the annoying search-for-focus effect. Added to this is a Minimum focusing distance of just 15 centimeters (from the sensor plane according to the RF-S 14-30mm objective). Although the included lens is not a pure macro lens, this short distance allows you to capture extremely close-up details with great comfort and reliability. With Canon EOS R50V: 1/500 s; f/6.3; ISO 2,500. The lens allows you to focus at only 15 … Read more
