How to choose a camera on Prime Day

What kind of camera do you need? Are you just happy to take some cool snaps away from your phone? If that’s the case, one of the best digital cameras on our list above will suit you perfectly. Although none of these picks are particularly fancy, it’s always a smart move to read up on how to choose a camera and learn about the different camera types on the market. As with any major purchase, it’s important to keep your budget in mind as well. Photography can be a very expensive hobby if you want it to be, but it can also be more affordable with some smart thinking.

If you’ve figured out you can invest more and you want to be more hands-on with your photography skills, check out the best mirrorless cameras and the best DSLR cameras. Alongside that, it’s a smart move to invest in some great camera lenses as different options give you different ways to take photos.

When shopping these camera sales, you should also keep an eye out for what bundle deals are available. Also, take a look at what lenses are available, as they can seriously spruce up your photography experience. Our best advice for lenses is to give some thought to what you want to take photos of and go from there.

How we chose these camera Prime Day deals

Saving money is more complicated than you might think. After all, big savings aren’t always indicative of a good investment, as it all comes down to the quality of the camera on sale. We make sure that the camera Prime Day deals we recommend are products we’d spend our hard-earned money on, too. Cameras are frequently great investments that continue to be good for many years to come, so you can go for a slightly older model in a sale and still enjoy many benefits. We make sure we know which older models are worth suggesting, but we also know about the latest options.

Alongside that, we prioritize which camera bundle deals are worth your time and which lenses are worth checking out. A good camera is about more than just the main body, so we make sure the full selection works well together and that (of course) it’s the cheapest price around.

My favorite SD card reader is a mere $15 for Prime Big Deal Days
The Lexar USB-C SD card reader.

I take a lot of pictures on a daily basis. And while I usually get to offload them in the comfort of my home, sometimes I need to export as quickly as possible. Maybe even straight from my phone.

That's where my new favorite SD card reader comes in.

So, it's a great time to shop if you've been on the fence. However, we wanted to call out a great deal for novice photographers on the Canon EOS R100 mirrorless camera. Normally $600, it's just $429 right now as part of the event, saving you over $170. The bundle includes the RF-S18-45mm lens. Again, a great starting point for casual or novice photographers.

Filter-free and fun, the Fujifilm Instax Mini 11 Instant Camera is on sale Right Now for Prime Day
fujifilm instax mini 11 camera prime big deal days

It's 2024, and you’re considering a point-and-shoot camera. Zero judgment here. I miss the good ol’ days of flipping through actual photo albums instead of doom-scrolling on Instagram. You can get back to those days by snagging a (in the ice white color), and it’s the perfect time because it’s on sale. Get it for 24% off during Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, but hurry while inventory is going strong.
There’s something magical about having a physical photo right in your hand seconds after snapping the shot, and it adds a fun, retro vibe to moments you want to capture and keep. Plus, having an actual picture to hold and display can be so much more satisfying than just another digital file on your phone. I picked one up two years ago for my eight-year-old daughter, and it’s been an instant hit in our household. And now, at its $59 sale price, I'm definitely going to be stocking up on a few to gift ahead of the holiday season.

How the Fujifilm Instax Mini 11 works
The delightful throwback comes with a FUJINON 60mm lens and an automatic exposure feature that adjusts the shutter speed for the best shot, even in low light. While the picture quality won’t be as crisp as what your smartphone can capture, it’ll still produce a quality image worthy of slapping on a refrigerator.
If selfies are your thing, this camera has a dedicated Selfie Mode (with a mirror). We set up a DIY photo booth for my daughter's birthday party with sticker frames so each kid could go home with a photo souvenir, and it was a total hit.
You can opt to make it a set with a range of accessories to buy separately, like a carrying case, a handy strap, those sticker borders I mentioned, and photo albums to hold the memories.
