Photocameras

From pocket-sized travel compacts to DSLR and mirrorless cameras with interchangeable lenses, this category covers photography gear for very different ambitions, including rugged waterproof models for hiking and beach days. A dedicated camera outperforms a phone where optics decide the result: optical zoom, low-light shooting and full manual control. Compare sensor size, image stabilisation, autofocus speed and video features such as 4K recording. Beginners will appreciate reliable automatic modes, while experienced photographers should check lens compatibility and the control layout before choosing a system.
