1. Sony A74 – Best Hybrid Mirrorless camera Under $3000

Sony A7 4 is an excellent camera. When the camera was announced it was having a serve overheating issue. We have quickly figured out that with the use of fast cards the camera overheating can be prevented. So if anyone here is interested in getting Sony A7 4 camera and concerned over its overheating issue then you don’t have to worry you have to buy just these cards to prevent the overheating of your camera.

Specs-wise the Sony A74 camera is a class-leading camera with a 33 MP BSI CMOS sensor. The camera captures more detail compared to Nikon Z6 marks 2 camera or the canon R6 camera which roughly falls in the same price range.

What Canon users say about Sony A7 iV

Sony A7IV after regular use of my Canon DSLRs. The A7IV is portable, lightweight and versatile, allowing me to move from taking stunning photos to recording video content for my clients which range from fashion to hospitality. Moving from photo to video shooting is smooth and does not break my workflow. I get to focus on capturing the moments. The kit is fantastic as-is, but I also purchased a 50mm 1.8 lens which I’ve been accustomed to shooting with. All in all, I would highly recommend the purchase if you’re in the market for a mirrorless camera.

What Nikon users say About Sony A7 IV

Coming from Nikon after 18 years it’s been a hard learning curve but worth every penny! Yes, the kit lens people say is a joke but it is what it is.I have made it work for studio work and am happy. Not a prime but it works. The camera is something else! Studio work, outdoors, birds, and sports it has done what I want and lots better. I am coming from a long line of Nikon cameras with the latest being the d750 and d850.

2. Canon R6 – Best Canon full-frame camera Under $3000

Canon R6 camera features a continuous shooting speed of 20 frames per second and in a single burst, you can save up to 1000 frames of Jpeg or 240 raw files which is more than enough for a sports shooter. At the same time to support handheld shooting the camera features 8 stops of IBIS support.  The Canon R6 camera also features 1000+ AF zones so the tracking of the camera is exceptionally well. If we combine all the above features, then for sure Canon R6 is a perfect companion for shooting sports and wildlife photography.

Canon R6 is an excellent camera in its price range (Under $3000 with kit). Although sensor resolution is limited to 20 megapixels and the sensor is also a conventional CMOS sensor, not even a BSI. That’s why many professional photographers who have been using Canon for decades are hesitating to get this camera at this price point.

At the same time, the Canon EOS  R5 camera is costly and Canon EOS R camera is completely outdated, so the only option we have under the $3000 price range is the Canon R6 right now.

Being said that Canon is still the best option for Sports shooters and wildlife photographers.

User feedback – Sherko

The low light capabilities of this camera is just out of this world. I am getting perfectly usable photos at 8000ISO!!!!!!

User feeback- Tou – Nikon Z6 Mark II user tries the Canon R6

I’ve had the Nikon z5 for over a year and half and it was time to upgrade as I needed better video and AF. I thought about the Nikon Z6ii, but having to carry two different cards and still subpar auto focus, I decided look into the R6. Although it is much pricier than the Nz6ii, so far I am loving it. As of this review, I’ve had it for 3 days and it is amazing. Love the AF, the IBIS for video and low light performance. Could not be happier with this purchase.

3. Nikon Z6 Mark II – Best Nikon full-frame camera Under $2500

Nikon Z6 mark II is an excellent camera for wedding photographers and wedding cinematographers. Either you can pick this camera with 24-70 F4 Lens which is also available as the kit or you can also add some extra bucks to purchase the amazing candid lens, the Nikkor 28 to 75 f2.8.

Pictures are sharp and clear with amazingly good pics even at 6400 ISO. Even the 27-7 F4 kit lens is surprisingly sharp. The 5 axis IS is a welcome addition. The camera is a perfect camera and its price range and no one can replace the Z6 mark 2 camera with its features

Nikon Z6 Mark II camera is a perfect camera for those who are looking for a perfect full-frame solution under budget at the same time the Z-Mount is almost open we are having lenses from Tamron as well as Viltrox and in near future, we do expect to get more options from third party lens maker’s.

User feedback   – Jason – Nikon Z6 Mark II with 24-70 F4 Lens

The camera produces great images. Built ruggedly and takes everything a pro can throw at it. The 5 axis IS is a welcome addition. While not having the opportunity (yet) to fully test the kens, initial impressions are that in a very lightweight body, the lens produces sharp and contrasty images with nice bokeh.

Sony started a new line of consumer cinema cameras with the Sony A7C, you can record high-quality 4K videos for your YouTube channel even if you are a beginner then this camera is useful to you.  It’s very light, film amazing at night and I like its retro style looking.

Can photographers buy the A7C? – Yes, if you were interested in the Sony A7 III camera and at the same time, u don’t have the budget of the Sony A74. Then the best option right now is to go with the Sony A7C.

The only issue I have faced while using the Sony A7C camera is its old user interface.  otherwise, it’s an excellent budget full-frame mirrorless camera from Sony.

6. Best Fullframe Camera under $1500

Nikon Z5 is a budget full-frame camera that features a 24-megapixel FX sensor paired with expeed 6 image processor and you will also get 5 axis image stabilization system with the camera.  It’s an excellent camera to capture images with a high amount of detail and amazing dynamic range. The low light performance of the sensor is also very good compared to the APS-C cameras we have in the same price range.

If you are a  photographer and looking for a quality output then under $1500 Z5 is the best option.

The downside of the Nikon Z5 camera is the video part, the camera is able to record full HD videos without any issues but in 4K you have to face an excessive crop.

At the same time don’t expect autofocus tracking performance similar to Canon or sony. If you love to have better autofocus tracking performance in Nikon then either you can go with the Nikon z50 or Nikon Z6 mark 2. But, being said that, under $1500 price range the Nikon Z5 is still an excellent option for photographers out there.

7. Fuji X-S10 for Fuji Lovers – Best Fuji Camera Under $1500

If you love to buy a Fuji camera then  Fuji X-S10 is also a good option. With the Fuji X-S10 camera, you’re getting a 26MP BSI CMOS sensor and brust speed up to 30fps. The camera is also able to record you DCI 4k oversampled video recording with IBIS (sensor-shift image stabilization) and in Small, light, great grip, IBIS, same image quality as the X-T4 at a bargain price.. The handgrip is great. The battery life is too short. Overall – The x-s10 is a great camera for photographers as well as vloggers. For an instant video shoot for documentarists, it is great.

At the same time, I have to mention that don’t expect AF performance similar to Sony A6400 or Canon R10, for that level of AF performance in Fuji you have to buy Fuji X-H2S.

8. Canon R10 – The fastest Mirrorless in its class

Canon R10 is also a very good APS-C mirrorless for still and video purposes. The camera pair of 24-megapixel APS-C CMOS sensors with canon’s fastest Digic x image processor.

With the help of both, you are able to grab continuous frames up to 23 FPS with full-time autofocus support, and the R10 camera records video up to 4K 60 FPS and oversamples 4K videos up to 30 FPS

The Canon R10 is one of the first cameras to provide a 10-bit internal recording in the same price range. The only downside of Canon are 10 camera is its low light performance, the camera needs a studio light set up to give the best output possible

9.  Sony ZV-E10 & Sony A6400 – Best Sony’s Under budget

In the 9th place, we have two cameras. If you are into photography and wedding cinematography, then the best option for you is the Sony a6400 camera. The camera features a perfect grip for photographers, a weather-sealed body for durability, and EVF for semi-pro photographers.

And if you want to have the most advanced vlogging camera under budget then undoubtedly the Sony ZV-E10 is the best option right now. The camera features the most advanced set of core specs that a vlogging camera may have in that price range. Excellent face-tracking autofocus for VLOG applications. Has an earphone jack to monitor sound. Outstanding image quality. (Using a 24 MP sensor for 4K creates very sharp images. Sensors are Sony’s strong suit.) It does not overheat.

No alternatives to ZV-E10 in terms of price range and specification.

10. Nikon Z50 and Nikon Z30 – The Best budget DUO from Nikon

Nikon z50 is an excellent option for those who are looking perfect camera for uncontrolled light conditions. When you are not in your set or studio and mostly you are interested in Street photography or anywhere when you don’t carry or have professional lights with you the Nikon z50 will outperform all the other cameras of the same price range. If I have to sum up the Z50 in a few words I will say “This a great camera. Light weight and produces amazingly clear shots.”

Nikon Z30 is the same Nikon z50 camera with up-scaled video specifications and without a viewfinder to save the production line cost. If you want to have a perfect low-light vlogging camera then Z30 is the best option under budget. Due to a slightly lower resolution, the rolling shutter effect is also less compared to other competitors.

We have no alternatives for Nikon Z50 at its price range since it’s an excellent lowlight performing camera
