Cameras & Drones

Camera marketing sells sensors; photographers argue about glass. For most buyers the practical questions are how the camera behaves in low light, whether the autofocus tracks a moving subject, and how much the lenses for a given mount will cost over the next five years.

What actually matters

The specifications that change the answer

Sensor size, which drives low-light performance more than resolution
Lens mount ecosystem and the price of the second lens
Autofocus subject detection, if you photograph people or animals
Battery life quoted in shots, and whether USB-C charging works

What to skip

Video specifications above 4K60 unless you have the storage and the workflow
Bundled kit lenses bought only because they were discounted
Drones above 249g if you want to avoid registration in most jurisdictions
