Sports Camera Recommendations

Emiliek1214 — Fri, 17 Jan 2025 14:33:08 GMT

I am very new to this but I am in search of a good camera for sports/action shots (baseball/football) Mirrorless preferred. I don't need a super high end since I am barley starting out but don't want a cheap one that wont do the job while I'm learning. please help! TY!

Well, to me these are the options

R1 - The flagship but a prohibitive price.
R3- To me still the best with a better price than the R1
R5 mk II - No as good as the R3 but if you tend to do heavy cropping then this is the answer.
R6 mk II - Less resolution than the R5 but very capable camera.

Having a 24 MP sensor it's an advantage for sport photography. Keep that in mind. In short, a 24 MP sensor provides a sweet spot for sports photographers, offering a blend of speed, detail, and low-light performance while remaining efficient in terms of workflow and camera performance.

What is your budget for camera and lens?

As my colleague said what is your budget. It won’t do you good to suggest a camera that’s out of budget.
