But, quite like most good things in the world—cars, holiday destinations, and restaurants—the quality of your purchase largely depends on your budget. Here are our top 5 picks in the category of the finest DSLRs, mirrorless cameras and compacts that are having a major moment in 2020.

2) Fujifilm X-T30

Pegged as one of the most capable APS-C mirrorless cameras around, the Fujifilm X-T30 is a brilliant value for money.
