The Canon EOS 250D is a compact, beginner-friendly Canon DSLR camera engineered for photographers and videographers who refuse to compromise. Powered by a 24.1MP APS-C CMOS sensor and DIGIC 8 image processor, it delivers razor-sharp stills and stunning UHD 4K24p video across a wide ISO 100–25600 sensitivity range — from bright daylight to challenging low-light scenes.
Built around an ultra-slim body, the EOS 250D pairs intuitive controls with a 3.0″ 1.04m-dot Vari-Angle Touchscreen, Dual Pixel CMOS AF for smooth, camcorder-like focus in video and live view, and built-in Wi-Fi & Bluetooth for instant wireless sharing and remote control — making it one of the most capable lightweight DSLRs in its class.
Key features
- 24.1MP APS-C CMOS Sensor + DIGIC 8: Captures high-resolution images with rich detail and minimal noise, supporting up to 5 fps continuous shooting to freeze fast-moving subjects.
- UHD 4K24p Video & 4K Time-Lapse: Record cinema-quality footage or automatically compile interval shots (1 sec–60 min) into a seamless 4K or Full HD time-lapse movie in-camera.
- Dual Pixel CMOS AF: Phase-detection pixels spread across the sensor deliver fast, smooth, and accurate autofocus during video recording and live-view shooting — ideal for moving subjects.
- 9-Point Phase-Detection AF (OVF): A cross-type centre point and eight surrounding points ensure quick, precise focusing through the optical viewfinder in varied lighting conditions.
- 3.0″ Vari-Angle Touchscreen LCD: The 1.04m-dot flip-out display rotates for easy framing at high or low angles and responds to touch for intuitive menu navigation and focus point selection.
- Wi-Fi, Bluetooth & External Mic Jack: Share images wirelessly to a smartphone, control the camera remotely via the Canon Camera Connect app, and connect an external microphone for professional-grade audio.

Frequently asked questions
Can the Canon EOS 250D record 4K video?
Yes. The Canon EOS 250D records UHD 4K at 24p, as well as Full HD and HD video. It also features a dedicated 4K Time-Lapse Movie mode that compiles interval frames (settable from 1 second to 60 minutes, between 2 and 3600 frames) into a finished 4K or Full HD video file automatically in-camera.
What autofocus system does the Canon EOS 250D use?
The EOS 250D uses two complementary AF systems. When shooting through the optical viewfinder, a 9-point phase-detection AF system (with a cross-type centre point) provides fast and accurate focusing. In live view and during video recording, Dual Pixel CMOS AF takes over, using two photodiodes per pixel across most of the sensor to deliver smooth, hunting-free phase-detection focus — similar to a camcorder.
Does the Canon EOS 250D have Wi-Fi and Bluetooth?
Yes. The EOS 250D has both built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Wi-Fi enables quick pairing with a smartphone or tablet for wireless image transfer, while Bluetooth allows continuous low-power connection for image sharing and remote camera control via the Canon Camera Connect app.
