Canon DSLR model of the year. Is there any hope

A camera is a technique, the cost of which can vary from several thousand to a couple of million rubles (for example, a medium-format Hasselblad H4D-60 costs 40 thousand dollars). Therefore, to make our rating interesting to a wide range of readers, and not only to those who have an unlimited budget, we decided to make the price / quality ratio the main selection criterion.

In this article, you will not see another debate about which camera is better - Canon or Nikon, DSLR or mirrorless, cropped or full-frame, but get a selection of cameras tested by thousands of users, each of which will be a successful purchase. And now let's move on to the rating of cameras in terms of image quality in 2017.

SLR Cameras

For reference: a full-frame camera has a 36 * 24 mm matrix, a cropped one - 23.6 * 15.8.

FF is capable of producing better images at high ISOs and gives more control over depth of field, while crop benefits from a more affordable price.

Full frame cameras

The 36 * 24mm full-frame camera was previously a luxury that could only be afforded professional photographers... Now fullframes can often be seen in the hands of amateurs, they are bought not only for commerce, but also for the soul. If you want to buy a FF and know exactly why you need it, we recommend that you pay attention to the following models.

Canon 5D Mark 4

The 5D-M4 is a professional camera that replaces the popular 5D-M3. The most discussed novelty of 2016 did not disappoint expectations: the Kenon 5D-M4 got a new 30.4 MP sensor, an improved focusing system, a set of all kinds of wireless sensors (Wi-Fi + NFC, GPS) and the ability to record video in 4K resolution.

In all other respects, it is still the same reliable workhorse for professionals, with small improvements on all fronts. The 5D Mark 4 can be recommended for most commercial photographers and is suitable for all genres - from portrait and advertising to reportage and videography. Price - from 190 thousand rubles.

Nikon D750

Nikon D750 - excellent versatile full frame with moderate resolution (24.3 MP), high speed continuous shooting (up to 6.5 frames / sec) and very tenacious autofocus. Among the advantages of the D750, we note the rotary screen, trouble-free operation at high ISO ( complete absence noise up to 6400), the presence of two slots for memory cards, a Wi-Fi module and good autonomy.

Disadvantages are a 1/4000 limited minimum shutter speed threshold, slow focusing in LiveView mode, and a small information display. But nevertheless, this is a well-balanced camera that can be considered an excellent choice for anyone who wants to get acquainted with the full frame. Price - from 110 thousand rubles.

Sony A99

The A99 is a camera that uniquely features a translucent mirror that allows the engineers to realize autofocus in video mode, which, in addition to the built-in stabilizer, makes the A99 one of the best full-frame DSLRs for video filming.

As for the photo, the A99 does not graze the rear, the camera produces excellent image quality, with pleasant color reproduction, excellent detail and dynamic range, but at the same time it is inferior to analogues from Canon and Nikon in terms of autonomy and tracking autofocus efficiency. Price - from 125 thousand rubles.

Canon 6D Mark

Canon 6D is the most affordable full-frame on the market, which can rightfully be considered "popular". The 6D is made in a magnesium alloy case, its dimensions are more compact than that of professional DSLRs, but in terms of ergonomics, there are no complaints about the device. As well as the quality of working out high ISOs - at the level of older brothers.

But it was not without its drawbacks: so that the 6D did not compete with the 5D line, the focusing system was cut (only 11 points of which 1 is cross-shaped), 1 slot for a flash drive was left and the buffer size (7 RAW frames) and burst shooting speed (4.5 f / s). Despite all the disadvantages, there are no analogues of 6D among fullframes, since in his person you can get a full frame only 70-80 thousand rubles.

Crop cameras

Despite all the attractiveness of a full frame, it is most rational to start acquaintance with photography with cropped cameras. And for this, the following models are best suited.

Nikon D3300

The Nikon D3300 is a great time-tested amateur camera. Nikons of the D3300 series have everything that a beginner photographer might need: the camera copes well with noise at ISO range up to 3200, has a decent dynamic range, which gives all the possibilities for post-processing photos, and tenacious autofocus with 11 points (there is also a rangefinder for manual focus).

The disadvantages are the absence of an automatic HDR mode and a Wi-Fi module, which does not allow controlling the descent from a smartphone and synchronizing the device with a PC for file transfer. But considering all the above advantages and the price of 30 thousand rubles, the disadvantages are not critical. If you are looking for an inexpensive and good DSLR camera, you can safely go for the D3300.

Canon 750D

The 750D is one of Canon's flagship models in the hobbyist segment. The camera has a 24 MP matrix with 19 focus points (all cross-shaped), a rotary touch screen and a Wi-Fi module. The 750D can be praised for its high-quality noise reduction, thanks to which the pictures have acceptable details up to ISO 6400, and the excellent rate of fire - 5 fps, 8-shot buffer, which allows the camera to be used for reporting purposes.

Disadvantages - flimsy plastic body and the lack of the ability to record Full HD video with a frame rate above 30 FPS. Price - from 40 thousand rubles.

Nikon D500

The D500 is a professional-grade crop camera, sharpened for reportage photography... The D500 inherits many of the characteristics of the top-end D5, in particular, it can shoot at speeds up to 10 fps and has an advanced 153-point focusing system that allows you to get a high-quality picture of any action scene.

Among the advantages of the D500 are a quiet matrix with a really working ISO 6400, lightning-fast operation speed, a rotatable touchscreen display, a large and bright viewfinder, as well as advanced control and configuration options. Price - from 130 thousand rubles.

Canon 7D Mark 2

The 7D Mark ll is a great choice for commercial photography. The camera, made in a rugged case, has professional system autofocus (65 cross points) and a viewfinder with 100% frame coverage. Among the main advantages are a high level of working ISO (up to 3200), flawless metering and natural color reproduction.

Interchangeable-lens mirrorless cameras

If you are buying a camera "for the soul", then it makes sense to choose mirrorless cameras, which are much more convenient due to their compact dimensions, but at the same time they are practically not inferior to DSLRs in photo quality, and in terms of video recording capabilities they completely break out far ahead.

Sony A7 II

The Sony A7 II is a professional grade full frame mirrorless camera that claims to be the best UPC on the market. The camera is equipped with a 24 MP sensor, a hybrid autofocus system (117 phase and 25 contrast sensors) and a 5-axis matrix image stabilization system.

A7-II without any problems allows you to get a "cinematic" picture when recording video, which is recorded in 4K, 2K and Full HD (24-50 FPS) formats, and does not give up when taking photos - the matrix feels good at ISO up to 6400. Price - from 230 thousand rubles.

Panasonic G7

If you want to make great videos, but are not ready to pay 230 thousand for the Sony A7-ll, then the Panasonic G7 is your choice. This is the most affordable UPC with the ability to record video in 4K (24/25/30 FPS), which boasts tenacious and fast autofocus from 49 points, a folding screen and Wi-Fi module.

However, for the high quality of the video (and it is really excellent here) you have to sacrifice photo capabilities. The pictures taken with the G7 often lack detail, and the matrix is noisy already at ISO 1600. But all this is covered by the price, which is only 50-60 thousand rubles.

Fujifilm X-T2

The X-T2 is Fujifilm's flagship mirrorless camera and can be considered one of the most technologically advanced hybrid cameras on the market. The X-T2 is strong both in terms of photography (gorgeous detail and color rendition) and in video shooting (4K): it is equipped with a 325-point autofocus system, which confidently copes with any shooting scenarios, and can shoot at up to 15 frames per second. ...

Among the advantages of the X-T2 are a beautiful design and a case with protection from dust and moisture, long autonomy from a single charge, decent picture quality at high ISO ranges. There are no drawbacks, as such, we note only small controls that will be difficult to cope with for owners of large hands. Price - from 110 thousand rubles.

Olympus OM-D E-M10 II

In the budget segment of the UPC, the king of the ball is the E-M10ll, which bypasses competitors in terms of functionality and balance of characteristics. The device is made in a metal case with a retro styling, the matrix resolution is 16 MP, the pictures are very warm and bright, pleasant in terms of color reproduction both in RAW and in JPEG, without any post-processing. Working ISO up to 3200.

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

We included the E-M10ll in the rating as a universal choice for any beginner amateur photographer and people who do not want to pay fabulous money for a camera. This is a beautiful camera with excellent image quality that you can buy for only 35-40 thousand rubles.

Compact Cameras

Segment compact cameras extremely diverse, you can find everything from banal "soap boxes" for several thousand to premium full-frame cameras, which cost more than professional full-frame DSLRs. This is the camera that starts our rating.

Sony Cyber-Shot RX1R II

The price of the Sony RX1R II is a crazy 290 thousand rubles. The camera is capable of surprising with a 42 MP matrix, 35 / 2.0 Carl Zeiss Sonar T lens, electronic viewfinder, tilting touch screen and Wi-Fi. And of course - the best among compact autofocus system and a huge dynamic range (maximum working ISO 6400).

As for the photo, the RX1R II is great, the picture turns out to be bright, juicy and detailed, even when shooting a camera JPEG, but with the video, not everything is so smooth. The device does not know how to record in 4K and cannot boast of having autofocus in video mode. In general, for street photography, subject to an unlimited budget - that's it.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX100

The Lumix DMC-LX100 is notable for its Leica lens (24-75mm zoom, f / 1.7-f / 2.8 aperture) and the ability to record video in 4K, which is extremely rare among compacts. In all other respects, this is a perfectly balanced camera with a full set of technological chips (viewfinder, Wi-Fi, numerous mechanical controls, a smart processor that allows you to shoot at up to 11 fps).

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

In our opinion, if you are satisfied with the focal length of the built-in lens, it is better to choose the DMC-LX100 than the DSLR / UPC + lens kit. Thus, you will benefit in ease of use (dimensions, weight), and in addition you can save a lot. Price - from 49 thousand rubles and a well-deserved mark of 5 points in terms of price / quality ratio.

Fuji X70

The X70 is equipped with a fixed Fujinon 28 / 2.8 lens, which allows you to capture stunning quality images in terms of both sharpness and color rendition. This is an excellent camera for street photography, which takes a compact size and fast automation, which makes it possible to get the camera out of your pocket and take a picture in a matter of seconds.

Among the advantages of the X70 are design, easy handling, wide dynamic range and a decent working ISO (3200). Disadvantages - the lack of a viewfinder and image stabilization system. Price - from 40 thousand rubles.

Olympus TG-4

The Olympus TG-4 is a relatively cheap compact, a great choice for people who don't have photography as their main hobby. The TG-4 is ideal for any environment, from everyday shooting to extreme vacation photography, which the camera can handle with dignity thanks to the dust and moisture resistant housing (shooting at depths of up to 15 meters is possible).

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Among the pleasant little things, we highlight RAW support, optical stabilization, fast and accurate autofocus, the presence of Wi-Fi and GPS modules, as well as the ability to shoot in aperture priority mode with manual ISO setting, which allows you to squeeze the maximum quality of photos from the TG-4 in low light. Cons - mediocre video quality. Price - from 21 thousand rubles.

Choosing a SLR camera. What should a novice photographer look for?

So, the purchase decision has been made. But the variety of the DSLR market will baffle any newbie. Which model is right for you? What parameters should you pay attention to?

Sensor, ISO and Image Stabilizer

Matrix (sensor) is a structural part of the camera that converts the light flux that hits it into electrical signals (bits). The sensor is a microcircuit with light-sensitive diodes - pixels, the number of which determines the image resolution, detail and noise level.

Professionals advise against chasing a lot of pixels unless you are going to print posters with photos. For amateur photography, a camera with a sensor size of 12-24 megapixels is enough.

Sensor sensitivity is denoted by ISO abbreviation. The lower the ISO speed, the better quality frame. Manufacturers produce cameras with a range of 50 to 204,800 units. Keep in mind, however, that high ISOs will cause graininess in the image, which will not beautify the photo.

The image stabilizer is sometimes built into the body of the camera rather than the lens. Its presence helps to avoid blurring of frames when shooting without a tripod.

Optics

The main advantage of SLR cameras is the ability to use different optics. There are six types of interchangeable lenses:

whale (universal);
portrait;
