DJI Osmo Mobile 3

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 VI

1. Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 VI

There’s no doubt that Sony’s latest pocket camera was designed with travel photography in mind. With a 24-200mm f/2.8-4.5 (8.3x) zoom lens and a 1-inch image sensor, the RX100 VI is much more capable in low light than your smartphone. Among the features are the tilting touch LCD, the EVF that retracts into the body for storage, the 4K capture, and the extreme slow-motion video. Despite being one of the most capable pocket cameras on the market, it costs $1,200.

BUNDLE INCLUDES:

  • Compact Point and Shoot Camera Case
  • Lexar Professional 633x 64GB SDHC/SDXC UHS-I Card
  • 2 x NP-BX1 Extra Battery Pack and Charger

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000

2. Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000

Consider a bridge camera if you enjoy taking pictures of local wildlife but don’t want to carry a big, bulky telezoom lens. The small size of a fixed-lens camera allows you to get longer zooms than you could with an interchangeable lens of the same size. Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ1000 offers 25x zoom power (25-400mm) and a 1-inch sensor, making it one of the best values around.

BUNDLE INCLUDES:

  • Battery Pack
  • AC Adaptor
  • USB Cable
  • Lens Hood
  • Lens Cap and String
  • Hot Shoe Cover
  • Shoulder Strap
  • Slinger Camera Bag
  • Lexar 64GB Professional U3 SD Card
  • ProOptic 62mm Filter Kit (UV/CPL/ND2)
  • Green Extreme DMW-BLC12 Lithium-Ion Battery
  • Green Extreme Smart Charger with LCD Screen
  • Corel Mac Essentials Photo/Video Software
  • Cleaning Kit
  • Multi Card Reader
  • Screen Protector

Canon EOS M50 Mark II

3. Canon EOS M50 Mark II

The Canon EOS M series used to feel like a forgotten child, but today these lightweight, affordable mirrorless cameras are a great choice for travelers. With its high-resolution APS-C sensor, the Canon EOS M50 Mark II is an excellent still and video camera. Despite its sleek body, it’ll handle most shooting situations with ease.

Nikon Z50

4. Nikon Z50

If you are looking for your first ‘proper’ camera and you like Nikon, the Nikon Z50 is a great choice. The button layout is very comfortable and it works well as a travel camera. Furthermore, the 3.2-inch screen can be folded underneath the body to compose selfies that are altogether more sophisticated, although it and the tripod mount compete for space. Currently, not many lenses are made specifically for the Z50’s DX format, but the range will grow naturally over time, and you can use lenses made for Nikon full-frame cameras as well.

Fujifilm X-S10

5. Fujifilm X-S10

It’s All About How It Feels: The X-S10 offers maximum control to on-the-go photographers. The deep handgrip ensures solid handling with any lens attached, while the intuitive controls ensure effortless operation regardless of your camera system. X-S10 is also equipped with a 180° vari-angle LCD touchscreen and uncropped continuous shooting at up to 20fps, allowing you to unleash Fujifilm’s acclaimed color science in every photo.

Olympus Tough TG-5

6. Olympus Tough TG-5

When snorkeling or scuba diving, a waterproof camera is a must. Our favorite waterproof model is the Olympus Tough TG-5, which has a good zoom range for its class and is built to withstand anything. Olympus provides support for 4K video, extreme macro photography, and Raw images with its 4x lens at 25mm.

DJI Osmo Mobile 3

DJI Osmo Mobile 2
