Just about every camera these days can capture video along with still images, but some do it better than others. Professional photographers looking to add video to their creative offerings can certainly do better than just shooting shaky footage with their iPhones.
For that, they’ll need what we call a true “hybrid” camera that can capture both pro-quality images and crisp video at resolutions of 4K UHD and above. Our colleagues at Imaging Resource, isalebays’s sister site, recently published a definitive guide to the Best Hybrid Cameras for Photo and Video in 2022. While their list includes a range of two-in-one cameras from entry-level models to premium shooters, we’ve whittled it down to the five best cameras for capturing both photos and videos for professional photographers.
