It’s super-fast and built like a tank. But its price means there are better options for most people.

[T]he EOS R100 has the virtue of being cheap, it’s not particularly appealing beyond that.
Not just any kind of film either, but as its name suggests, specifically half-frame 35mm.
The Sony FE 16mm F1.8 G is a a capable ultra-wide-angle lens that delivers great performance in a compact form.
The OM System OM-1 Mark II is a subtle evolution of the OM-1, which is already an impressive high-speed camera. This Mark II is even better – and graduated Live ND is a unique feature!
[I]f you’re an APS-C user looking for the most versatile all-in-one lens available, the conclusion is simple – go out and buy the Sigma 16-300mm F3.5-6.7 DC OS right now.
If you’re able to look past that, and want an easy-to-use weather-sealed camera that you can take with you on your travels and adventures, then the OM-5 Mark II will be an amazing companion.
A lovely little camera capable of delivering some excellent results. If you like using a viewfinder, it’s not for you, but for hybrid shooters and smartphone upgraders, it’s a well-priced winner.
It’s a sensational camera that offers remarkable performance in a smaller and more affordable package than its full-frame competitors.
So it’s great that you can now get a nice f/2.8 zoom at a more affordable price. The Panasonic Lumix S 24-60mm F2.8 is a large-aperture standard zoom for use on the firm’s full-frame mirrorless cameras.
I believe the lens will be worth the asking price for many pros shooting with Sony bodies, as it could mitigate the need for carrying a 70-200mm f/2.8 and several fast primes, such as a 50mm, 85mm and 135mm.
Quite simply, it delivers great images shot after shot. Rarely have I used a camera that I’ve enjoyed so little, yet which has impressed me so much with the pictures it produced!
The Canon PowerShot V1 is very capable as a high-end compact camera for video and vlogging. But its ultra-wideangle zoom limits its attraction for general-purpose photography.
The adage ‘you get what you pay for’ rings true in the case of the Yashica City 100.
Of course, there are those that think “full-frame” is the be-all and end-all, but for people who value lightweight and travel rather than a sore back at the end of the day, then the OM-5 is worth its weight in gold.
It’s very difficult to think of anything that counts as a significant flaw.
Far more advanced than its “entry level” billing – and still a capable, reliable full-frame camera of quality feel, decent specs, and ever-expanding range of good lenses. Fantastic at its price point.
As much as I like the DJI Mavic 3, the DJI Mavic 3 Classic would be my pick of the two drones. I don’t really have a need for the 162mm camera and the 24mm camera does a great job for stills and video.
The X100VI is, without doubt, a gorgeous and highly desirable camera, and one that that remains up there with one of the most beautiful digital cameras ever made.
If you’re looking for a high-resolution, professional camera, this body should definitely be considered. It’s immensely capable, and Sony’s ergonomic improvements make it far more comfortable for long shoots.
If you want a long-zoom compact that will fit in your pocket, then this is a great option. It’s a shame there’s no upgrade compared to its predecessor though.
With its combination of zoom range and fast aperture, it actually presents very good value in comparison to the other lenses in this area, and if this is the kind of lens you need, it is a really compelling proposition.
Ultimately, nothing else on the market can quite match the all-round package that the Fujifilm X-T5 offers enthusiast photographers at the price. If you’re not tied down to an irrational fixation with 36x24mm, it’s pretty much perfect.
Ultimately, photography is a creative pursuit. Sometimes it’s fine to buy and use things just because they are pleasing and inspirational – not necessarily because they are technically the ‘best’.
