Bridge Cameras

Bridge cameras, also known as advanced compact cameras, have features of both compact and reflex cameras. They allow more control over image acquisition with manual modes but have a single, non-interchangeable lens. The appearance is very similar to that of a reflex camera only smaller in size and is aimed at advanced amateurs who require more control than a compact camera offers.

Bridge cameras can be said to be halfway between a compact camera and a reflex camera. In addition, in recent years mirrorless cameras have emerged, which offer a compact size with the possibility of interchangeable lenses, and can sometimes be a great alternative to bridge cameras.

There are different factors to consider when buying a bridge camera. The sensor, image resolution, ISO sensitivity, optical zoom, screen and connectivity are key factors when choosing a bridge camera. There are many options on the market and depending on your budget, experience and intended use you will have to choose one.

In the entry level range the KODAK PIXPRO AZ422 with 42x Optical Zoom is a great option. In a more intermediate range we can find the PANASONIC DMC-FZ300EG-K which allows us to record 4K video and is splash and dust resistant. A superior option is the NIKON COOLPIX P950 with 83x optical zoom, 4K video and RAW recording capability.
