Most photographers and filmmakers are planning to add at least one or two gadgets in their camera bag. And mirror-less cameras are becoming popular everyday since they pack some of the best features including their portability. And these are the 6 best mirrorless cameras to buy in 2019.
Sony a6000 mirror-less digital cameraÂ
I got a chance to use this small beast at a friend’s wedding last year and I loved the performance. The camera has descent photos and good videos since it comes with 24.3 megapixel and the world’s fastest auto-focus so you won’t miss a detail in a crucial shot. I shot with 16-50mm and 35mm lenses. I specifically loved the videos from the prime lens because a 35mm lens is wide enough for cinematic videos and portrait photography.
The a6000 is also easy to use just like its big sister a6500. It has quick-access dials that let you change settings in a flash so you can adapt to a fast-changing environment or try out different settings on the same shot.

Panasonic Lumix G7
This is a dope machine for casual photographers and it can also be used by professional filmmakers since it blends 4K UHD video with advanced still capture and burst shooting capabilities. The G7 comes with a 16-megapixel sensor and intelligent image processing that produces images you’d normally find on full-frame DSLR cameras. It also has a high-resolution OLED viewfinder for framing your photos or you can use the tilting and swiveling three-inch LCD touch display to get any angle you desire.

Sony a7 ii
This is not a new camera. It’s the fourth member of the Sony A7-series line-up. It replaced the a7 and it was replaced by the now famous Sony a7 iii. The main reason why this camera has featured in this list is because of its price range and the fact that it’s a full-frame camera.
This is the first Sony’s first full-frame compact system camera to feature in-body stabilization hence you can shoot without a tripod. The camera also comes with a full-frame 24.3 Megapixel sensor, 5 fps (Frames Per Second) Burst Rate and it has incredible dynamic range that gives you the best details.

Canon EOS R MirrorlessÂ
The camera has a full-frame 30.3MP CMOS sensor and a phase-difference detection system with the 1D X Mark II’s Dual Pixel CMOS AF. This basically means that the camera is very good but it has only one issue. It doesn’t have in-body image stabilization, which can be found in many of its competitors like the Sony a7r ii.

Panasonic Lumix G9
The best camera for travel vloggers and travel enthusiasts. The camera comes with an ultra-fast autofocus system that captures quick-moving subjects while the five-axis gyro, accelerometer and image sensors combine for increased stabilization, preventing “shaky” photos and videos. To add on that, it has an optional vertical grip that adds both increased control and doubles battery life for all images and video captured with the 20.3-megapixel sensor.

Sony Alpha a9
This is Sony’s flagship mirrorless camera and photographers provide that it’s currently the best mirrorless camera in the world. But very expensive. It has a 35mm EXMOR RS CMOS sensor with 24.2 megapixels to get professional-level results, and an eye-popping 693 phase-detection points help the autofocus system capture your subjects in perfect clarity.
The camera can also shoot up to 20fps RAW in burst mode for up to 362 shots. Ideally this is one of the fastest cameras in the world. And its electronic shutter is very quiet.
