Which should you buy?
High-Res Stills & Landscape — X-H2 (2022): Fujifilm's highest-resolution X-mount body — 40MP, 8K video, weather sealing, and 7-stop IBIS for serious photographers.
All-Round Photography — Z50 II (2024): Nikon's updated APS-C body with 4K/60p, improved subject tracking, and a vari-angle screen — a solid all-rounder.
High-Resolution Creative & Documentary Shooters — Sigma fp L (2021): 61MP and phase-detect AF in the world's smallest full-frame body — the fp L is the most capable iteration of Sigma's extraordinary compact.
