I am the guy that recently posted about a Canon 40D. I have using that with a 80-200 lens. Since I can not use it to take more "full body" pics without backing a lot, and many of you told me to better get a 18-50 lens, I researched and the price of a refurbished lens is 150 bucks. The 40D is currently having the Error 06 of not being able to clean the sensor (apparently common to theses) I have searched on Amazon for a good camera and found the R50. I saw some videos in YouTube and they say is the best entry beginner lever camera for a ok budget. Currently it is 600 bucks on Amazon from my country with the 18-45 lens kit. Asking if it would be an improvement probably is dumb but I want to know if this would be a good purchase. Plus I saw I can buy a 50 dollars adapter to fit the current Canon lens into the R50.

Greetings ,
Besides both cameras having the ability to take pictures, there isn't going to be any comparison.
The R50 will be superior in every way. Here is a side-by-side for you.

One thing you will definitely want to consider. You might run into some performance issues trying to use a 16-year-old lens on an advanced mirrorless body. Example, it may not focus as fast, and it may not support the camera's maximum FPS. From a performance, user experience and quality standpoint, the R50 will be a huge upgrade for you.
