Which should you buy?
The α7C II edges ahead on the Mars Score (46 vs 52.8), but the 6.8-point gap is small enough that the right pick comes down to which spec advantages matter to you.
Pick the EOS R50 if you carry the device everywhere and weight or thickness has been the deciding factor before. The biggest gaps in its favor are weight.
Pick the α7C II if you care most about megapixels and af points. Its strongest claims are megapixels, af points, in-body stabilization, among others.
There are no meaningful ties on the headline specs — every popular-comparison metric has a winner.
Bottom line: the α7C II is the safer default. The other model is the right choice only when its specific advantages line up with your priorities.
