DSLRS AND MIRRORLESS CAMERAS

BUYER’S CHECK LIST NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2021

Christmas is on its way and there’s no better excuse to treat yourself to a new camera… or maybe get a family member started in photography. Where the camera companies don’t provide RRPs, we’ve worked out an average ‘street price’ based on what we’ve seen quoted by the leading Australian photo retailers over the last few weeks.

THIS CHECKLIST is designed to allow direct comparisons between different camera models, listed here in price order within each brand. The published prices are mostly supplied by the distributors as recommended retail prices (RRPs). However, some distributors are no longer supplying RRPs to the media, so it has become necessary to determine an ‘estimated street price’ derived from the range of prices for a model published by retailers. Where this has been necessary, the letter ‘E’ appears at the start of the entry.

A dot appearing in a column indicates that the feature is available on the camera model listed. Where a specification or product detail hasn’t yet been published or confirmed, the letters TBA (to be announced) or TBC (to be confirmed) are used. If a feature is irrelevant to a particular model – such as mirror lock-up for compact system cameras – then n/a (not applicable) is used. Every effort is made to ensure accuracy; please send any corrections to camera@futurenet.com.
