The best cameras of 2018

The best cameras of 2018 can be divided into mirror and digital gadgets. They differ in the principle of action, the dimensions of the matrix, the quality of the images. Typically, mirrored devices are chosen by professionals. In such solutions, the touch panel is protected by a curtain. Consequently, light passing through the lens is reflected upward. Then it enters the optical viewfinder. However, ordinary buyers are unlikely to find the described wisdom of SLR cameras useful. Nevertheless, we will consider the rating of the best cameras this year for both professionals and average consumers.

    Nikon and Canon have very interesting models, new models are released. The same D750 and Canon Eos 5D Mark IV as an example. They also deserve to be included in this rating. After all, the cameras are excellent and the price is reasonable.

    It is very good that my camera is still in the top, I am the owner of the Nikon D7200 Kit, also in third place, class. I want to buy myself a Nikon D610 Body, because it’s time to move on, it’s a pity that there is no money for this camera yet, well, maybe this year I will change at least the lenses. I looked at the photos that were taken on the Nikon D610 Body, this is really amazing quality, I would love to purchase it.

    Choosing a camera is not as simple as it seems at first, but for me, the SLR will always be a priority. What doesn’t matter Nicon, Canon or Sony - all these are just competing brands, but in general the difference is insignificant, but the photos are gorgeous.
