Canon EOS M50, EF 50 1.8 STM @ iso100 1/2500s, f2.2

Regretting for selling old EOS 70D and buying M50. I thought M50 has Advance Digic8-24Mega pixcels will give better result than 70D which is Digic5-20MP. I was wrong.

Look at the dove-double edge, and leaves-chromatic abrasion - this is taken with EF50mm 1.8 STM , 1/2500s f2.2 iso100.

Visible noise in iso800 in indoor shooting.

Is there any thing wrong with the setting - in the camera which i have to look for?

Im no master of the M50 so take it with some salt. I find it's ISO performance isn't mind blowing, i don't think this was meant to be a world beater in SNR. But the DR is better than it has been before (i owned a 70D and have raws still, the M50 has better DR), and it has 4mp more.

I don't find anything wrong with the sensor or processing, your focus is off though. The noise isn't the greatest but the M50 is capable of as much detail as any other 24mp apsc body, which is really about the lenses and how accurate the focus is. And CA isn't a fault of the sensor, it's 100% an attribute of the lens.

Check your AF settings, the lines of the building at the bottom are fairly sharp at 100%, the focus point looks to be somewhere behind the trees and in front of the building, a light year from that bird on the roof.
