Here Are the Best Options for Your Next Camera Purchase from $200 to $10,000 (VIDEO)

This time of year many photographers are thinking about upgrading their gear. When choosing a new camera, it usually comes down to your budget and the type of photography you do most.

The goal of this interesting video from photographer Tony Northrup is to help you arrive at a compromise between what you want, what you need, and how much you can afford to pay. And he’s got you covered from $190 to $10,000.
