The best gifts for photographers in 2023
What’s the best gift for the photographer in your life? It’s not a camera, even if you were trying to spend upwards of a thousand dollars. The best things you can put under the Christmas tree are the fiddly bits and accessories, things everyone needs and no one gets around to buying. That, and maybe something a little flashy too. Here are some solid picks that will make any photographer’s next shooting session just a little bit better.
The Sony a7CR is a high-resolution addition to the company’s compact full-frame a7C series. So what did we make of it and where does it leave the a7 IV that it sits just above?
Lomography’s LomoChrome ’92 is designed to mimic the look of classic drugstore film that used to fill family photo albums. As we discovered, to shoot with it is to embrace the unexpected, from strange color shifts to odd textures and oversized grain.
The LowePro PhotoSport Outdoor is a camera pack for photographers who also need a well-designed daypack for hiking and other outdoor use. If that sounds like you, the PhotoSport Outdoor may be a great choice, but as with any hybrid product, there are a few tradeoffs.
The Sony a7C II refreshes the compact full-frame with a 33MP sensor, the addition of a front control dial, a dedicated ‘AI’ processor, 10-bit 4K/60p video and more. It’s a definite improvement, but it helps if you value its compact form.
Why is the Peak Design Everyday Backpack so widely used? A snazzy design? Exceptional utility? A combination of both? After testing one, it’s clear why this bag deserves every accolade it’s received.
If you want a compact camera that produces great quality photos without the hassle of changing lenses, there are plenty of choices available for every budget. Read on to find out which portable enthusiast compacts are our favorites.

‘What’s the best mirrorless camera?’ We’re glad you asked.
What’s the best camera for around $2000? This price point gives you access to some of the most all-round capable cameras available. Excellent image quality, powerful autofocus and great looking video are the least you can expect. We’ve picked the models that really stand out.
Above $2500 cameras tend to become increasingly specialized, making it difficult to select a ‘best’ option. We case our eye over the options costing more than $2500 but less than $4000, to find the best all-rounder.
