Best Cameras

There really is not a single best camera, but rather many great cameras that are the best for a certain situation. Since there are so many cameras with each having their own use and purpose, I will focus on two cameras the Canon 5D Mark II and the Sony F3.

The Canon 5D Mark II is one of the best DSLR cameras and works well in a number of situations. The 5D does especially well in low light with the ability to adjust ISO. The 5D is also small and compact allowing for filming in tight spaces. The 5D is also relatively inexpensive as far as cameras go which allows for great results at a low cost. The 5D in my opinion is one of the best cameras for amateur filmmakers. It produces very cinematic images and shoots full frame video.

The Sony F3 is a whole different story. The F3 costs about $15,000 just for the camera body. This camera is great if you have that kind of money or access to one. The F3 looks and feels like a "real" Hollywood camera. This camera looks more professional, but is also too big to be handheld or maneuvered with ease. Therefore, this camera works best in studios and on professional sets with assistant camera operators. The F3 produces stunning images. The F3 in my opinion is one of the best cameras for shooting in a studio.
