Fujifilm X100V 9/10
In fact, the longer I used the X100V, the less I missed, well, anything. This is a camera that Fujifilm has been honing for years and, with the X100V, the company has nailed it.

The X-Pro line has a smaller audience than Fujifilm's other cameras, but it's an audience that Fujifilm clearly remains devoted to. The changes in this update are well worth the money. The X-Pro3, like its predecessors, is a camera that makes you want to get out and shoot.
In the case of the Leica SL2, the answer is a lot. You get a fantastic 47-megapixel full-frame sensor capable of incredibly sharp, wonderfully saturated images, and some of the best support for high-end video you'll find in a mirrorless camera system.
Leica's latest camera is a slick throwback with some impressive features and equally impressive drawbacks.
The latest pocket camera from Olympus is a go-anywhere device that soars where smartphones crash.
[I]t might not be the coolest or the sexiest compact you can buy, but it's well-rounded and offers plenty of power for the average camera buyer.
The Hero6 Black was our number one recommended action cam last year, and the Hero7 Black is the same camera, but better.
One of the best compacts on the market.
That's not to say the M5 is perfect—I have several reservations about this camera—but it certainly shows Canon moving in the right direction, and it demonstrates that the DSLR giant can make a very capable higher-end mirrorless camera.
Even with the flawed EVF, you're still getting a lot of camera for $700. In fact the GX85, despite a couple shortcomings, is one of the year's best Micro Four Thirds camera releases. Its smaller design makes it a good choice for travel and street photography.
Olympus built an excellent camera, so if you want something that looks great and produces wonderful images, ignore the fashion tax and buy it.
It excels as an all-around travel camera, a street photography camera, or as a pocket camera for times when anything more would be overkill.
There really is no perfect camera. But the X-Pro2 does come damn close to perfection.
The GX8 ends up being a very capable performer and probably my top pick in the current Panasonic micro four thirds line up. That said, if you prize portability above all else, I strongly suggest laying your hands on one of these cameras before you commit.
Most mirrorless cameras are happy being smaller, beginner-friendly, somewhat less-capable alternatives to DSLRs. But the Fujifilm X-T1 has a different goal in mind: It's built to replace a DSLR camera entirely.
They say the best camera is the one you have with you. But there might be a better kind of camera: The one you never want to put down.
The Fujifilm X100S is the camera you want without even knowing it.
If you photograph weddings, parties, or people in general, this is the camera for you. The 5D III's six-frames-per-second continuous shooting and improved durability with weather resistance are a step up from the previous model.
[I]t's still far enough from ideal that I can't in good faith recommend it for the hobbyist or the serious consumer.
[I]f a feature-rich DSLR with a low barrier of entry is what you're on the hunt for, you could do a lot worse than the T2i.
In spite of that shortcoming, the 7D is an outstanding shooter on nearly every level.
In both still and video modes, the Canon's colors are comic-book oversaturated, so it's a good thing the menus are easy to navigate: A deep settings massage will slap them into shape.
Nikon's latest offering, the 12-megapixel D90 is a feature-packed fistful of photo fury that's sure to help pave your way to full-fledged Flickrati status. Straight from the box and out on the street the D90 shows off its picture-making prowess.
Big, heavy and laden with features, Nikon's 12.3-megapixel D300 is also the best digi-SLR for under three grand we've seen yet. All told, it comes as close to the highest-end Nikons or Canons on the market for thousands less.
