The RX100 series has been lauded as the best point and shoot camera for several years now with each year a new model is released with minor changes. It uses a Sony's 1-inch sensor with High quality Zeiss lenses that allows of high resolution stills and stunning 4K video. The latest is the Mk VI with the longer zoom range but we think the Mark IV and Mark V are a better value even though the range is shorter at 24 to 70. It fits in your pocket and it has a view finder. What's not to love?
Canon EOS M50 |

It detects the subject and is able to track it seamlessly which makes it perfect for vlogging. It even has a microphone jack if you want to plug in an external microphone for better audio. Lastly, it has a fully articulating touch display which means you can flip the display to face you so you can make sure you can compose yourself better when filming yourself.
Also, if you decide to get one from Henry's Professional camera, you can get a Rode Microphone and Enovation Flexible tripod.
Fujifilm X-T3 |
6. Best all-around APS-C Mirrorless Camera - Fujifilm X-T3. The body starts at PHP 86,990. Fujifilm has been known in recent years for producing cameras with an APS-C sensor that can rival full-frame and for producing a long list of lenses dedicated for their APS-C line that allows for a relatively smaller but competitive set-up. The X-T3 builds on the great stills capability of the X-T2 while improving its autofocus and video capabilities significantly. The result is the best all around APS-C camera.
