The 10 Best Cameras for Travel Photography in 2023

Need a top-notch Travel Camera to take Stunning Pictures of your next adventure?

Considering the variety of available alternatives on the market, choosing the best camera for vacation photography might be challenging. Thankfully, I’ve traveled for decades with a variety of cameras (film, instant, and digital), and I’ve listed my top 10 favorites below.

You’ll see that I’ve included a wide range of options, including cameras at every price point, from entry-level point-and-shoot models all the way up to pro-level full-frame cameras. These models are for novices, pros, and everyone in between. (In other words: Whatever your needs, we can meet them.)

So let’s get started if you’re prepared to locate the ideal camera

1.Panasonic Lumix LX100 II

There is a lot to enjoy about the Panasonic Lumix LX100 II for travel photographers. An aperture ring on the lens and a shutter speed dial on top of the camera allows you to quickly change settings, even while the camera is turned off. The camera also has outstanding ergonomics.

Additionally, the Lumix LX100 II features a quick lens with a useful 24-75mm zoom range, optical image stabilization, so you can work handheld even indoors, and 4K/30p video, so you can record stunning, detailed footage of landscapes, cityscapes, and interiors of buildings.

The Lumix compensates for the Four-Thirds sensor’s reduced size

Pros

• Excellent image quality
• Fast lens
• Small and compact

Cons

• Fixed rear screen
• Smaller sensor

2.Canon Power Shot G1 X Mark III 

The third model in Canon’s popular point-and-shoot series is the Power Shot G1 X Mark III. It nearly resembles a little DSLR because of how beautiful and sleek it is.

The G1 X Mark III is an exception to the rule of compact cameras, which often have tiny sensors that are one inch or less; it has an amazing APS-C sensor, one of the largest available in such a portable camera. You’ll be equipped to tackle any trip photography situation because it also has an optical stabilizer for shooting in low light and a convenient zoom range of 24-72mm.

The G1 X Mark III is simple to operate and creates photos with excellent clarity and color. The cost is the only drawback. At

Pros

• Large APS-C sensor
• Compact size
• Articulating screen

Cons

Premium price

3.Fujifilm X100V

I love the Fujifilm X100 series cameras and have three of the five models that have been available in the past ten years. In fact, a lot of photographers who stick with other manufacturers choose an X100-series body as their “take-everywhere” camera.

The excellent 35mm f/2 fixed lens on the X100V is despite its little size and low weight. Other helpful features include its leaf shutter, which is beneficial for taking pictures in more sedate locations like museums and cathedrals, and an integrated neutral density filter, which is ideal for taking pictures with wide apertures in strong light and long exposures of stunning landscapes. Of course, you also receive a selection of gorgeous JPEG film simulations that are available as soon as the camera is turned on.

The X100 series as a whole is fantastic, but the most recent

Pros

• Excellent lens
• Built-in ND filter
• Fujifilm JPEGs
• Weather-resistant

Cons

• Fixed lens
• No in-body image stabilization
• More expensive than its predecessors

4.Olympus Tough TG-6

Going on a dangerous expedition? You could find the Olympus Tough TG-6 to be the ideal travel camera. The body of this little point-and-shoot camera is shockproof, dustproof, and crushproof, so it can handle a lot of abuse.

The TG-6 is fog proof even during sharp temperature fluctuations and can operate in temperatures as low as 14 degrees Fahrenheit (-10 degrees Celsius). A hazy camera may be a great annoyance, as I discovered on a recent trip to Indonesia when I regularly transitioned from an air-conditioned hotel room to the heat and humidity outside.

The Tough TG-6 will like being underwater almost as much as you do, snorkeling and diving enthusiasts. It has various useful underwater features and is waterproof up to 49 feet (15 meters).

Pros

• Super tough
• Compact
• Affordable

Cons

• Only 12 megapixels
• More suited to adventurers than enthusiast photographers

5.Sony a6600

It’s simple to understand why Sony has dominated the mirrorless camera industry in recent years: the business manufactures a diverse lineup of cameras that appeals to both pros and amateurs.

Even though several of its stablemates have full-frame sensors, the Sony a6600 is a solid contender for the finest hobbyist travel photography camera on the market because of its small size and great specifications. The 24-megapixel APS-C sensor, Real-Time Eye AF for stills and video, and five-axis optical image stabilization are all features of the a6600. The a6600 is particularly useful for selfies and vlogging because of its 180-degree flip screen. The layout and controls might be better, but that’s about the only thing holding an otherwise wonderful product back.

Pros

• Small and light
• Great lens lineup
• Real-Time Eye AF

Cons

• Handling and ergonomics could be improved

6.Ricoh GR III

Ricoh has been producing super-compact GR cameras since the film heydays of the late 1990s. Those classic point-and-shoot GR models were known for their sharp wide-angle lenses and minimalist controls, and the digital line of GR cameras is no different.

The Ricoh GR III is a perfect mix of portability, optical quality, and impressive features. You get a fixed 28mm full-frame equivalent f/2.8 lens capable of producing great images, and four-stop shake reduction that ensures sharp files even in challenging light.

The GR III is often compared to another camera in this list, the Fujifilm X100V, but I’d encourage you to grab the Ricoh if you prefer a smaller camera with a wider angle of view.

Pros

• Truly pocketable
• Four-stop shake reduction
• Fantastic wide-angle lens

Cons

• The straight-out-of-camera JPEGs are not as good as Fujifilm’s
• Battery life could be better

7.Nikon D5600

This next model doesn’t require an introduction; throughout the 1980s and beyond, many well-known trip photographers used Nikon SLRs. The newest model in Nikon’s intermediate APS-C line, the D5600, is an excellent choice for both amateur and enthusiast photographers.

Although it is not as tiny as other models on our list, the Nikon D5600 features outstanding ergonomics and feels reassuringly comfy in your palm. Excellent image quality and outstanding low-light photography are both present. Additionally, you get a fantastic battery life and a fully articulated screen (for selfies, vlogging, and difficult compositions).

These days, the price of a new D5600 is very affordable, and the price of a used D5600 is much lower.

Pros

• Excellent image quality
• Good ergonomics and handling
• Good battery life

Cons

• No 4K video
• On the larger side

8.Sony a7 IV

Consider the Sony a7 IV if you’re an expert travel photographer looking for a versatile camera. This full-frame, pro-level model combines amazing autofocusing, gorgeous picture quality, and excellent video in a cost-effective compact.

The a7 IV isn’t particularly small or large because it’s not made to travel, but it’s also not very compact either. However, you can wear it around your neck or carry it easily in a backpack, and for serious photographers, the abundance of top-notch features will make up for the added heft.

You can take crisp handheld shots indoors and at night with the a7 IV because of its superb sensor and in-body image stabilization.

Pros

• Astonishingly good image quality
• Great video features
• Fully articulating screen
• Beautiful EVF

Cons

• Pricey compared to other models on this list
• Larger than other options

9. Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV

Even while Olympus may not be the most well-known camera manufacturer in the world, that’s alright as long as it keeps creating excellent products like the OM-D E-M10 Mark IV.

The E-M10 Mark IV excels as a travel photography camera in many ways. It has a 20 MP Four-Thirds sensor, which provides great image quality, and is amazingly small, so you can put it in your pocket or purse when traveling and just take it out when you need it. The 14-42mm EZ lens is a great option for a portable setup, but if you want greater range, check out the 14-150mm. The lenses are also made to be portable.

A 3-inch screen that can swivel so you can take low-angle pictures is among the additional features.

Pros

• Compact and light
• Excellent image quality
• Good range of lenses
• Cheap

Cons

• Smaller sensor

10.GoPro Hero 11 Black

With the HERO11 Black, amazing highlight movies are immediately transmitted to your phone. Your ability to publish vertical images to social media right away is made possible by its new, bigger image sensor, which catches more of the subject with better image quality. Your smoothest, most beautiful photos ever are guaranteed with HyperSmooth 5.0’s built-in AutoBoost and Horizon Lock capabilities. With the help of the new Night Effects and 10-bit color, you can express your creativity after dark. The HERO11 Black is the most potent GoPro to date thanks to all of this and more.

Pros

• Automatically upload footage to the cloud + get a highlight video when charging
• Waterproof to 33 ft + built tough.
