While it lacks some of the luxuries of mirrorless models, this camera does so much that no other system can – it's a genuine glimpse into the future. Canon has combined the advantages of DSLR and mirrorless to produce a hybrid body that can shoot according to what the situation demands. With the Canon EOS1-D X Mark III, Canon has released a camera packed with leading-edge tech, including deep learning AF, an optical Smart Controller, HEIF and HDR PQ support, CFexpress, 12-bit internal 4K RAW, head tracking and so much more. Lower resolution than the Sony A9 II -No animal AF (yet) -No image stabilization -No tilting LCD screen Don't worry though, there are still plenty of eye–wateringly expensive models, including the brilliant Phase One XT. While you could never call medium format cameras 'cheap', the Hasselblad 907X 50C joins the GFX 100s in featuring a more affordable price tag.

The release of the compact and relatively affordable Fujifilm GFX 100s definitely turned a few heads, making medium format a little more accessible. Plus, the medium format camera market is only becoming more competitive. Meanwhile, the upcoming Canon EOS R3 is set to have a 30fps burst mode and the ability to control the autofocus with your eyes (yes, really!). The Sony A1 features 30fps continuous shooting, a 50.1MP sensor and 8K video. However, it's worth noting that, with video becoming a major focus among camera manufacturers, there are some fantastic professional cameras that offer a great selection of both photo and video features at the moment.

If you're primarily a videographer, then you may want to check out our dedicated Best 4K cameras for video guide, or check out the best cameras for vlogging. Meanwhile, if you're a videographer (or you regularly shoot video for your work), then you'll be looking for a whole other set of features, with uncropped capture, codecs and frame rates becoming far more important than autofocus modes and sensor size. This means that finding the right camera for you will depend entirely on what you need out of your kit.
