Sony ZV-E10 II

Sony designed the ZV-E10 II for vloggers and online creators. This compact camera shoots in 4K at up to 60 frames per second, and because it captures in 10-bit colour, smooth colour gradients. Sony’s S-Log3 profile helps the camera grab every last bit of detail from the bright spots and dark corners of a scene.

This gadget is priced at Rs 84,489 on Amazon and available on various e-commerce platforms and Sony stores.

Its 24.2-megapixel sensor and Sony’s Tracking and Eye AF mean the user get sharp, high-quality images and video without having to worry about focus. The camera is packed with smart features for vloggers, like a ‘Product Showcase’ setting that quickly shifts focus from your face to an object you’re showing, and a button that instantly gives you a blurry, professional-looking background.

Olympus OM-D E-M10

The Olympus OM-D E-M10, especially the Mark IV version, is a good camera for photographers who love to travel light but refuse to compromise on image quality. It’s got a classic, retro look but is packed with modern tech. It features a 20.3-megapixel Micro Four Thirds sensor that captures lovely, detailed images and can record 4K video. But the camera’s standout feature is 5-axis in-body image stabilisation. This system is so effective at countering camera shake that you can take sharp photos handheld in dim light and shoot wonderfully smooth video, all without any equipment. 

The touchscreen on the back also flips down, making it perfect for selfies or framing yourself up for a quick vlog. More than just its specs, the OM-D E-M10 is good for street photography, or simply capturing everyday life with a bit of style. This Mirrorless camera is priced at Rs. 94,490 on Amazon and available on their official website.

Nikon Z30

Nikon Z30, it’s a small, light camera that gives you uncropped 4K video, meaning it has a 20.9-megapixel sensor to give the user great quality. It can also record Full HD video at 120 frames per second. If the user prefers to colour grade their videos, Nikon’s ‘Flat’ picture profile gives their footage a neutral look, making it easier for them. The hybrid autofocus system in the camera and Nikon claims it’s quick with eye and animal detection that works reliably in both photos and videos. This lightweight camera begins from Rs 83,499 and comes with a 50 – 250mm zoom lens on Flipkart.

To keep it compact, Nikon decided to leave out the viewfinder and instead put in a fully articulating touchscreen that lets them see while recording. And gets a bright red tally light on the front to display if you are recording or not. The main record button is easy to find without looking.
