Nikon D7100<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nThe D7100 is retailing at about $1000 and is considered the best crop sensor DSLR from Nikon. Unlike the full frame camera, this type (crop sensor) comes with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digi5studios.com\/\"><em><strong>photo sensors<\/strong><\/em><\/a> that are smaller than your normal 35mm film. The good news, however, is that it the D7100 is packed with the latest innovations, and is much cheaper compared to full-frame cameras.

Sony Alpha SLT-A77<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sony does not have many full-frame camera options as its competitors. But its crop cameras, such as the A77, which retails at $1500 are very competitive. This camera comes with the 24-megapixel sensor count, which is accompanied by varying video options. It also provides better autofocus whenever you need to record videos.<\/p>\n<p><strong>10. Sony Alpha SLT-A99V<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Unlike Nikon and Canon, Sony has not been in this market segment for a long time. But, the guys at Sony have perfected the art of making cameras that have very good sensors. The Alpha SLT-A99V retails at $2800 and is a full frame camera with a 24-megapixel sensor count. Even though this camera provides good value for money, it does not come with as many lenses, which may prove an inconvenience for a professional photographer looking to vary their shoots.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Wrap Up<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you are operating with a solid budget, then the Sony Alpha A99V, Canon 5D MKIII, and Nikon D800 will provide you with best features, highest resolution, and image quality.
