Compact and lightweight, yet packed with power, Canon has created the PowerShot G7 X to be that perfect all-around pocket camera.

Sony does it again with the Cyber-shot RX100 III, one of the best compact cameras you can buy. It has a new viewfinder, processor, and lens. But it’s still pricey.

Whether it’s the outdoors or by the beach, if you need a camera that can take a lot of abuse during a vacation, Olympus’ Stylus Tough TG-3 is up for the challenge.

Olympus’s OM-D E-M1 flagship is a solid Micro Four Thirds camera that produces very good images. It’s a great upgrade for existing Olympus SLR users, but it’s much too expensive for everyone else considering the strong mirrorless competition out there.

Competing with Compact System Cameras, Canon’s EOS Rebel SL1 is the smallest, lightest DSLR to date, but don’t let this baby DSLR’s body fool you – it performs like a good DSLR should.

The M6 Mark II puts more power and pixels into Canon's compact EOS-M mirrorless line, but it fails to outshine the competition due to a lack of lenses and inferior low light performance. We love the improved Dual Pixel Autofocus and 14 fps continuous shooting speed, but there are better cameras.

The sixth generation of Sony's powerful but compact RX100 camera delivers more zoom, incredible speed, robust 4K video, and still fits in the palm of your hand. Loaded with tech and with no competition, it also gets away with a very high premium.

Full-frame cameras deliver photo quality that’s short of exceptional, and Nikon’s D810 lives up to that claim. It’s also better at video capture than its predecessors.
