The coolest cameras on the market
Words: Charlie Thomas
Whilst it is true that most mobile phones can take pretty decent pictures nowadays, nothing can quite replace the traditional camera. With so many styles on the market though, it can be tricky choosing the right one. It’s even trickier if you want something that looks the part that also takes a cracking shot. Here are the coolest cameras on the market.
PHASE ONE ALPHA A-SERIES CAMERA
, We love design that perfectly marries the old with the new. The Phase One Alpha A-Series camera does just that, combining a digital medium format back with an Alpha body. It offers up to 80-megapixels as well as a choice of three lenses, and its leather strap and wooden grip means it’s a looker too.
LEICA X CAMERA
, Leica are renowned for creating some of the very best cameras in the world. Their heritage is virtually unparalleled, yet it’s the build quality and long-lasting appeal of their designs that really make them stand out above the rest. The Leica X is one of their finest compact creations to date, combining a 16.2 megapixel sensor with one of their signature Summilux lenses. The results are incredible.
FUJIFILM X100T, , The styling of the X100 will appeal to those with a penchant for retro design. While it looks old fashioned, it does indeed boast some serious tech including a hybrid viewfinder and a 16.3 megapixel sensor.
