Yes I agree chromatic abrasion is by lens.

I compared old photos taken by 70D with same lens EF50-1.8STM - for the noise and abrasion, 70D was far better.

No editing was done. Since Raw image more than 20mp was not accepted by dpreview, I converted and saved to jpg by DPP of Canon. no editing done. standard picture style shot. I feel the sensor is inferior to 70D for this beginner level camera. Digic8 is only a processor.

Some of reviews I came across mentioned that image quality of M50 and 80D are same. How far it is true?

the M50 and 80D has the same sensor ....the M50 /80D sensor was a big improvement over older sensors like your 70D manely with dynamic range .. noise was also improved a little.. it was canons 1st chip with an onboard digital to analog converter .

..do you use auto settings ?..is the M50 choosing different setting to your 70D?...is the metering different to the70D and are you having to brighten up the photos in post ?

I use the came for photograph, not for video. I've gone through reviews of this camera. but I can compare with What I had. So two stars.

Sure I will try few more tests, I tried indoor with EF70-200 F4 IS - with built in flash, didn't get satisfying results, again compared to the 70D.

i guess the flash on the M50 is not as powerful as the 70D ...but i would say that neither are powerful enough for a 70-200 zoom

There is no argument for FF vs APS-c (or m43) with shallow DOF..as it's a law of physics and a very subjective personal thing if you want to make use of the shallow DOF only FF can offer
