Good camera recommendation questions deal with what cameras are appropriate for a specific task or meet special requirements. This tag should not be used for shopping questions. Asking for comparisons between two cameras should be avoided unless motivated by clear situational detail.

What camera do you offer to a beginner for his first dslr or dslr like

You are going to be extremely limited at $400 for budget. Even the cheapest entry level DSLRs are normally $500 or more and for $400 you're barely moving above basic components for anything. If yo …

My first camera

There isn't a right or wrong answer for this, though at your price range you are looking at either a nice point and shoot or a bare bones DSLR model. The point and shoot will probably give you more f …

Should I worry about a camera I am interested in "winning" on Snapsort?

If things are remotely close on Snapsort, then Snapsort is generally agreed to be a poor judge of which is best. It can reliably tell you that a D800 is better than a T5i since it is a huge differenc …

5D Mark III or 6D

I would also recommend the 5D for your situation for both the low light performance and video performance. AF performance and durability improvements are also significant. The 3 extra megapixels don …

How would a mobile phone with external zoom lens compare vs DSLR?

The QX10 and QX100 aren't actually lenses for your phone, they are a miniature point and shoot camera that uses your phone for control and display of the images. (Think of it kind of like a remote co …

Beginner photography - Low end DSLR vs mid/high end Point and Shoot/P&S?

Does the Canon 7D have noise reduction, and does it matter?

The only thing the T4i has that the 7D might not is video AF. The T4i has sensors for auto focus while shooting video which I believe the 7D lacks. Even the 2012 model 5D Miii lacks a video AF. T …

Why is Canon 60D considered 'better' than Canon 700D?
