For those wanting to step up from item-level to midrange ILCs, there are many things to consider, including the choice between a DSLR or mirrorless camera, what sensor size suits you best, how important video is to you, and of course the lens system.
While full-frame cameras typically offer superior low light image quality and more control over depth-of-field, crop-sensor cameras are extremely capable in their own right - and (usually) more compact and less costly.
We`ve split the $1200-2000 ILC marketplace into two segments - full-frame sensor cameras (discussed in this roundup) and crop-sensor (APS-C/Four Thirds) covered here.
This group of full-frame cameras is split right down the middle, with three DSLRs and three mirrorless models. Sony is, by far, the major player in the full-frame mirrorless market, with most of the other manufacturers sticking with DSLRs.
Here are the cameras we`ll cover in this enthusiast full-frame roundup:
Canon EOS 6D
Nikon D610
Pentax K-1
Sony Alpha a7
Sony Alpha a7 II
Sony Alpha a7R
