10. Sony A9 III
In 2023, we put the Sony A9II as #10. However, times have changed, and the Sony A9III presents entirely new possibilities with its global shutter. This single innovation completely eliminates rolling shutter and allows flash photography to work at all shutter speeds without high-speed sync.
Due to its new shutter technology, it has an incredible 1/80,000 minimum shutter speed and can shoot at 120fps. It seems very unlikely that anything in the normal world will be too fast for this camera.
I’m putting it a little lower on this list because other cameras – including from Sony itself! – are less expensive than the A9 III at $6000, and these other cameras are just as good for most applications. Still, if you’re aching to use a global shutter, there’s no other camera on this list but the Sony A9III.
9. Panasonic S5 II
![Best Selling Mirrorless Cameras in the world 2024](https://photographylife.com/cdn-cgi/imagedelivery/GrQZt6ZFhE4jsKqjDEtqRA/photographylife.com/2018/12/Panasonic-S5-II.jpg/w=650,h=434)
One area where Panasonic had been lagging behind the best mirrorless cameras from Nikon, Canon, and Sony was autofocus performance (at least in Panasonic’s full-frame cameras). The Panasonic S5 II fixes this by introducing the company’s phase-detect AF.
Although the S5 II has a 24-megapixel sensor, don’t let that fool you if you’re a landscape photographer. Like some of the Sony and Fuji cameras on this list, the Panasonic S5 II has a high-resolution pixel-shift mode that quadruples a photo’s resolution to 96 megapixels! This only works if the subject is staying still, but I found that it produces fairly natural results in previous Panasonic mirrorless cameras, like the Panasonic S1R (see our review).
The Panasonic S5 II also has some very good video features, capturing up to 6K video internally. It even has a dedicated cooling fan to allow the camera to keep filming for long stretches without overheating. Add that to the 200-image RAW buffer, the 30 FPS shooting, and the $2000 price, and you have a very versatile mirrorless camera indeed.
8. Canon EOS R6 II
![Best Selling Mirrorless Cameras in the world 2024](https://photographylife.com/cdn-cgi/imagedelivery/GrQZt6ZFhE4jsKqjDEtqRA/photographylife.com/2020/07/EOS-R6.jpg/w=650,h=427)
Alongside the Sony A7 IV, one of the best mirrorless cameras today in terms of price-vs-features is the Canon EOS R6 II. This camera is a replacement for the prior generation EOS R6 that also remains an excellent choice.
The EOS R6 II has a 24-megapixel sensor (compared to 20 megapixels on the original R6), which is on the lower end of the scale these days – but it more than makes up for it in other features. Specifically, the EOS R6 II shoots up to 40 FPS stills (20FPS for the R6), has dual memory card slots, and uses Canon’s superb new dual-pixel mirrorless autofocus system.
It does all this at a starting price of $2500 (check here for price and availability.) Likewise, the prior generation EOS R6 is going on sale for cheap prices these days – $2000 if you find a good deal.
The EOS R6 and EOS R6 II are better than I would have expected in autofocus performance. They are practically as good as the Nikon Z9, Sony A1, and other top cameras in this respect, which was a big surprise when I tested the EOS R6. Well done to Canon for putting such a good autofocus system on a less expensive camera.
That said, if you’re mainly interested in landscape or studio photography and don’t need so many action photography features, you’d probably happier with one of the other cameras on this list.
7. Sony A7 IV
![Best Selling Mirrorless Cameras in the world 2024](https://photographylife.com/cdn-cgi/imagedelivery/GrQZt6ZFhE4jsKqjDEtqRA/photographylife.com/2021/10/Sony-A7-IV.jpg/w=650,h=429)
I’m stunned that we’re already at #6 and I haven’t gotten to talk about the Sony A7 IV yet – one of the best all-around mirrorless cameras that you can get today, and a great deal, too.
This $2500 camera (check price) has a 33-megapixel sensor, which is a sweet spot for both landscape and wildlife photography. Although it maxes out at a more standard 10 FPS, the A7 IV has an unlimited buffer and borrows its autofocus system from the Sony A1. So, it’s great for wildlife photography, too.
Sony has the advantage of being in the full-frame mirrorless market longer than Nikon or Canon, and it’s starting to show now that we’re on the 4th generation of the A7. For example, the large lens lineup for Sony mirrorless cameras (including third-party autofocus lenses) gives you more choices than Canon or Nikon, even though those two companies are catching up.
One of the best “under the radar” features of the Sony A7 IV is that it has the redesigned menu system found on Sony’s newest cameras (including the A1 and A7r V). Frankly, Sony’s old menu was a pain to use, even once you got used to it. The new menu makes the camera much more usable.
6. Canon EOS R3
![Best Selling Mirrorless Cameras in the world 2024](https://photographylife.com/cdn-cgi/imagedelivery/GrQZt6ZFhE4jsKqjDEtqRA/photographylife.com/2021/04/Canon-EOS-R3-Front-View.jpg/w=650,h=434)
If you want a more specialized camera for sports and wildlife photography, it’s hard to beat the Canon EOS R3. Unlike the previous cameras on this list, the EOS R3 doesn’t have a 40+ megapixel sensor; instead, it’s “only” 24 megapixels. But the EOS R3 can shoot 30 FPS bursts with a 420-shot buffer (and more if you shoot at a lower FPS burst). It also has Canon’s unique “eye-sensing autofocus” that begins focusing at the spot you look at in the composition. It’s a seriously cool feature.
I wouldn’t recommend the EOS R3 for landscape photography as my first choice, considering that it costs $6000 and has a lower-resolution sensor. But for any fast-paced genres of photography, you’ll want to take a long look at the EOS R3. If you don’t need the high-res sensors of the Nikon Z9, Sony A1, Sony A7r V, or Canon EOS R5, it equals or beats all of them in performance and gives you smaller, more manageable files.
5. Canon EOS R5
![Best Selling Mirrorless Cameras in the world 2024](https://photographylife.com/cdn-cgi/imagedelivery/GrQZt6ZFhE4jsKqjDEtqRA/photographylife.com/2020/07/Canon-EOS-R5-Body-Only.jpg/w=650,h=436)
t feels criminal to rank the Canon EOS R5 outside of the top three, but that’s just a testament to how fast camera companies are innovating today. The EOS R5 is a high-resolution, high-speed beast that’s equally capable of landscape photography and sports/wildlife. In that sense, it’s pretty similar to the three cameras above.
The Canon EOS R5 has a 45 megapixel sensor and can shoot a whopping 20 FPS. It has an excellent autofocus system, and like the three cameras above, it can also shoot 8K video. Canon found a way to push a ton of data through the EOS R5’s imaging pipeline, and it makes this camera excellent for both action photography and landscapes.
As you would expect, all this comes at a high price. The EOS R5 costs as much as the Sony A7r V at $3900 body only (check current price, though, because at least the R5 sometimes goes on sale). Between the two, the A7r V is arguably the better camera both for landscapes (due to more resolution and lens selection) and wildlife (due to the bigger buffer and AI-driven autofocus system). But the Canon EOS R5 is no slouch and easily one of the best mirrorless cameras available today.
The Canon EOS R5 is a full-frame mirrorless camera that was highly anticipated for its advanced features. Some key specifications and features include:
- Sensor: Full-frame 45-megapixel CMOS sensor.
- Autofocus: Dual Pixel CMOS AF II with 1,053 AF points and advanced subject tracking capabilities.
- In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS): 5-axis in-body image stabilization for improved handheld shooting.
- Video Capabilities: The EOS R5 is known for its exceptional video capabilities, including 8K video recording at up to 30fps and 4K recording at up to 120fps. It supports various recording formats, including 10-bit 4:2:2 internal recording and Canon Log.
- Viewfinder: High-resolution electronic viewfinder (EVF) with a 5.76 million-dot OLED display.
- LCD Screen: Vari-angle touchscreen LCD with a 3.2-inch display and 2.1 million dots.
- Burst Shooting: High-speed continuous shooting at up to 20 frames per second (fps) with the electronic shutter and 12 fps with the mechanical shutter.
- Dual Card Slots: Dual memory card slots (CFexpress and SD UHS-II).
- Connectivity: Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for wireless file transfer and remote control.
- Build: Weather-sealed magnesium alloy body for durability.
The EOS R5 is a versatile camera suitable for both still photography and high-quality video production. For the latest information and firmware updates, it’s recommended to check Canon’s official sources.
4. Sony A7r V
![Best Selling Mirrorless Cameras in the world 2024](https://photographylife.com/cdn-cgi/imagedelivery/GrQZt6ZFhE4jsKqjDEtqRA/photographylife.com/2022/10/Sony-A7R-V-Camera-Front-View-1.jpg/w=960,h=640)
Almost reaching the lofty heights of the Sony A1, yet a couple thousand dollars less expensive, is the Sony A7r V. It sells for $3900 (check price) and has an even higher-resolution 61-megapixel sensor.
The A7r V still manages to shoot at 10 FPS despite the high-res sensor, and it has a huge buffer of 583 images. And the autofocus system is incredible: It uses Sony’s newest artificial intelligence, subject-recognition algorithms. Cutting through the buzzwords, this means the A7r V can recognize subjects like birds and people even when they face away from the camera or have an unusual pose.
For a lot of photographers who are considering the Nikon Z9 or Sony A1, the A7R V will actually make more sense. It’s an excellent camera for landscape photography because of the high-res sensor, and at 10 FPS, it’s still great for photographing wildlife, too. It doesn’t quite reach the maximum specifications of either the Z9 or A1, but for most applications, it will do just as well as either of those cameras.
3. Nikon Z8
The Nikon Z8 can do almost everything that the Nikon Z9 can, not to mention in a much smaller package that costs $1500 less than the Z9. The only downside to the Nikon Z8 is that its smaller body means that it overheats a bit more easily when shooting higher-resolution video, especially 8K.
However, for most people, this overheating won’t be a problem at all. In fact, I recommend the Nikon Z8 over the Z9 for most people who don’t need the built-in vertical grip, or who want something lighter than the Z9.
Like the Z9, the Nikon Z8 does not have a mechanical shutter. Instead, its stacked sensor and electronic-only shutter is fast enough for any purpose. It also has an amazing autofocus system and access to Nikon’s unique array of wildlife lenses. For wildlife photographers, the Z8 is my first recommendation.
2. Sony A1
![Best Selling Mirrorless Cameras in the world 2024](https://photographylife.com/cdn-cgi/imagedelivery/GrQZt6ZFhE4jsKqjDEtqRA/photographylife.com/2021/01/Sony-Alpha-1.jpg/w=650,h=433)
The Sony A1 has extraordinary specifications, basically on par with the Nikon Z9. It can shoot 50 megapixel images at 30 frames per second, which is out of this world. It has an amazing autofocus system, too, making for great sports and action photography – alongside the obvious landscape photography applications.
Between the Sony A1 and the Nikon Z9, it was very hard to pick which one deserved to be ranked higher. A lot of it comes down to whether you prefer the large form factor of a camera with a built-in grip like the Z9, or the portability of the Sony A1.
That said, the Sony A1 is a seriously expensive camera at $6500 (check price). Compared to the Nikon Z9, both cameras have strengths and weaknesses that could favor either camera – and because of that, I gave the #1 place to the one that’s $1000 less expensive. You can see the full differences in the article Nikon Z9 vs Sony A1. If the price and size differences don’t matter to you, it will be one tough choice indeed.
Also, props to Sony for releasing the A1 almost a year before the Nikon Z9 started shipping. Sony really set the trend on this one.
the Sony A1 had been announced. The Sony A1 is a high-end, full-frame mirrorless camera that sits at the top of Sony’s Alpha series lineup. Here are some key features and specifications associated with the Sony A1:
- Sensor: 50.1-megapixel full-frame Exmor RS CMOS sensor.
- Autofocus: Fast and accurate Fast Hybrid AF with 759 phase-detection and 425 contrast-detection points. Real-time Eye AF for humans and animals.
- In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS): 5-axis in-body image stabilization for steady shots.
- Viewfinder: 9.44-million-dot OLED electronic viewfinder with a 240Hz refresh rate.
- LCD Screen: 3-inch, 1.44-million-dot tilting touchscreen LCD.
- Burst Shooting: High-speed continuous shooting at up to 30 frames per second with the electronic shutter.
- Video Capabilities: 8K video recording at 30p, 4K video at up to 120p. 10-bit 4:2:2 internal recording, and various video-centric features.
- Dual Card Slots: Dual CFexpress Type A and SD UHS-II card slots.
- Connectivity: Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for wireless file transfer and remote control.
- Build: Magnesium alloy body with weather-sealing for durability.
The Sony A1 is a versatile camera designed for professional photographers and videographers who demand high resolution and performance. For the latest and most detailed information, it’s recommended to check Sony’s official website or reliable camera review sources.
1. Nikon Z9
![Best Selling Mirrorless Cameras in the world 2024](https://photographylife.com/cdn-cgi/imagedelivery/GrQZt6ZFhE4jsKqjDEtqRA/photographylife.com/2022/07/Nikon-Z9.jpg/w=960,h=686)
The Nikon Z9 is a workhorse no matter what subject you throw at it. This camera is Nikon’s best wildlife photography camera and Nikon’s best landscape photography camera. It has a 45-megapixel sensor, yet shoots 20 FPS bursts with a practically unlimited buffer (1000+ shots). And even though it’s expensive at $5500, it’s at least $1000 less than I had expected and stands as one of the best values in a mirrorless camera today. (Check current price.)
Compared to DSLRs like the Nikon D6, the Z9 is more advanced in almost every way, yet less expensive. It sets a new standard in the mirrorless world, and that’s why I put it at #1 on this list. The only downside for some photographers is that the Z9’s large size and weight make it impractical for long hikes or full days of traveling. And, of course, $5500 is still expensive. If you’re on a budget, it would make sense to get a less expensive camera and put your money toward lenses instead.
