Camera kit builder

Choose your camera, add any lenses that fit and the accessories you carry. See the weight packed and ready to shoot, the focal range you cover and one filter size for the whole kit.

Packed 775 g · ready to shoot 505 gDetails

Accessories you carry

A spare battery comes in with its maker's weight for your camera's battery, and an adapter with its maker's weight; a DSLR lens brings its adapter with it. Enter the other items' weights from their labels or your scale; a memory card is about 2 g. Prices are yours and stay on this device.

The budget counts only prices you type next to accessories. This site shows no prices of its own.

Not covered between 72 and 88 mm equivalent.

What this kit covers, and what to add next

The six jobs the camera page picks a first lens for. A job counts as covered when a lens in the kit meets its rule, whatever it weighs; for each job left, the first pick for the EOS R50.

  • Everyday and travel: covered by the RF-S18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM.
  • People and portraits: the Sigma 56mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary (90 mm equiv. · f/1.4) takes the packed kit to 1,065 g. Its 55 mm filters fit the RF-S55-210mm F5-7.1 IS STM too.
  • Wide scenes and rooms: the Canon RF-S10-18mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM (16–29 mm equiv.) takes the packed kit to 925 g. Its 49 mm filters fit the RF-S18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM too.
  • Distant subjects: covered by the RF-S55-210mm F5-7.1 IS STM.
  • Close-up and macro: the Canon RF100mm F2.8 L MACRO IS USM (1.4x magnification) takes the packed kit to 1,505 g. Its 67 mm thread is larger than the kit's 55 mm, so the kit's filters would move up to 67 mm.
  • Low light: the Sigma 23mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary (37 mm equiv. · f/1.4) takes the packed kit to 1,120 g. With a 52–55 mm step-up ring it takes the kit's 55 mm filters.

Teleconverters for this kit

  • RF-S55-210mm F5-7.1 IS STM: Canon lists no teleconverter for this lens.

Only the converters the lens's maker lists for it. Each costs light: about one stop at 1.4x and two at 2x. A converter you pack counts in the packed weight.

Filters

Buy 55 mm filters and they fit every lens here: RF-S55-210mm F5-7.1 IS STM directly, the others through a step-up ring.

A ring keeps the filter larger than the lens, so wide lenses do not darken at the corners; the lens hood usually will not fit over it.

What the totals include

The camera's weight is its maker's figure with battery and memory card. Lens weights are the makers' figures without caps or hood. Ready to shoot is the camera with the first lens in your list; a DSLR lens counts with its adapter, at the weight you enter for it. Packed is everything. An accessory without a weight is left out of the total and counted under it, so a total is never quietly short.

A link you share carries only the camera and lenses. Your accessories, weights and prices stay in this tab, or in the kit file you download.
