I don’t have many items on my Christmas Wish List this year, but upgrading my current SLR camera is something I’ve been thinking about for months. You’ve likely noticed my passion for photography and I’m constantly trying to improve my images through practice and classes. While my Nikon D90 has been my go-to camera for taking leisure and professional shots, I find myself constantly limited by my SLR’s functions and capabilities simply because of it’s age and the continued technical innovation the realm of digital photography. With Christmas right around the corner, I’m obviously looking at the latest Nikon SLR cameras but haven’t discounted the possibility of finding an upgrade in another brand.

Holiday Tree

When it comes to tech and photography products, Best Buy is my go-to destination. Not only do they offer an expansive selection of brands and models within those brands, I can test out practically every single one in-store before making a decision. Whether you’re shopping for a friend or family, or you’re looking to upgrade your camera in anticipation of the holidays and the coming new year, Best Buy is the ultimate destination for the latest in cameras and camcorders.

While you’re certain to find the perfect camera to fit your imaging needs, there are 3 awesome, wi-fi enabled cameras that will help you capture and share your holiday memories instantly.

DI multi Nikon D5300

Nikon D5300 DSLR w/18-55mm VR Lens

I’ve been a Nikon gal for years so I’m obviously drawn to this 24.2 mp DSLR which features built-in wi-fi, optical image stabilization, and the ability to capture movies in full 1080p HD. The bundle offered at Best Buy includes an AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6G VR II lens.  The camera is currently on sale for $799.99.

DI Multi Sony a6000

Sony α6000 Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Camera

If you’re looking for the capabilities of a DSLR camera but don’t want the weight and bulk, Compact System Cameras are a great way to bridge that gap. I have a friend who swears by her Sony camera and the images I’ve seen her shoot are superb. This particular camera features a 24.3 mp sensor and built-in wifi, optical image stabilization and the ability to change out lenses.  This camera is currently on sale for $599.99.

DI multi Samsung Galaxy Camera 2

Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 

The stigma behind point and shoot cameras has changed with improvements in the technological features such as the sensor and optical image stabilization. Crisp image and high-definition video are two of the features that characterize this camera. Utilizing Android Apps, you can shoot and then immediately share with friends and family via email or social networking apps. And, if you have kids (or you tend to be “dropsy” like I am), you’ll appreciate the fact that this camera is drop and water-resistant. This camera retails for $313.99.

Whether you’re looking to give the gift of digital memories to a loved one or simply want to upgrade your own camera, visit the Best Buy Holiday Gift Center for awesome cameras at practically any price point.
