3. Fujifilm X100V
This camera comes with a fairly hefty price tag, but it has an impressive fixed 23mm f/2 lens and lots of built-in features, including 4K video recording, a 4-stop ND filter and a tilting screen, which allows you to shoot from different angles.
4. Sony ZV-1
A superb camera for content creators, the ZV-1 has a large 1.0-type CMOS sensor, and a quality Zeiss 24-70mm lens, ensuring brilliant photo quality. It can shoot 4K video at 24FPS and has a setting to protect the internal microphone from wind noise.
5. Nikon Coolpix B500
A low-cost bridge camera with a huge zoom range (22.5mm to 900mm telephoto), this has a decent autofocus system and a fast shutter speed of 1/4000 of a second to freeze movement. On the downside, video is limited to 1080p resolution and it is quite bulky.
