This is one of the best new Black Friday camera deals we have seen today. Amazon is knocking a huge chunk off the popular Canon EOS M50 mirrorless camera with its 15-45mm kit zoom. Until midnight this will cost £479, which is a tasty £170 off the retail price – as long as you choose the distinctive all-white option.

This was first Canon mirrorless camera with an APS-C-sized sensor to sport 4K video shooting, and that coupled with a 3in vari-angle touchscreen display, makes this camera a great choice for would-be content creators who want a camera for vlogging.

What marks this up against other budget mirrorless models is that there is a central 2.36million-dot electronic viewfinder (EVF) that offers a DSLR-like shooting experience.

With a resolution of 24.1MP, the camera has a very respectable 10fps motordrive setting for action sequences.
