Finding the perfect gift for those in your life is not always easy to do. This year though Best Buy has been offering some awesome Christmas gift ideas. Considering we are a blogging family, we are really interested in the camera line ups that Best Buy has to offer because we are learning the value of proper images making a positive difference. There are many quality cameras on the market today, and it’s really hard to just pick one for sure. These are all perfect as a memory-maker tool.

Feature Camera Picks for 2015

Of these three cameras, one of them is bound to be a perfect match for your needs. They range in prices from 347.99-799.99. All of these cameras are a great choice for fellow bloggers or other folks who are taking professional pictures without investing in high tech cameras. Since I’m a clear Nikon fan, I’m going to start with my pick of the choices.

This camera is the most expensive one of the bunch. It is on sale for $799.99 right now at Best Buy. This camera comes with 18-55 mm VR Lens. It provides image stabilization using a special vibration reduction. This feature really appeals to Crystal a lot because she has a hard time maintaining a steady hand when she uses my Nikon. It also enables you to capture fast action pictures for up to 5 frames per second. Considering Crystal likes to capture the kids in action and other various things, this feature would come in really handy for her.

This camera also comes equipped with built in Wi-Fi and GPS features. That allows the user to be able quickly and easily share their photos across social media and also store/share locations of where the pictures are taken. Another neat feature is the ability to operate the camera using an app from your phone.

This camera is the middle range of prices. This is currently on sale for $599.99 at Best Buy. This camera comes with 16-50 mm retractable power zoom lens. It doesn’t capture images quite as quickly as the Nikon, but it does it at a pretty decent clip of 11 frames per second. It also has the built in Wi-Fi.It also has the multi-format memory slots. It has a near-field communication too which allows you to control the camera’s functions using a compatible cell phone. It has an impressive 4.7 rating out of 5.

Hi, I'm Dale. Some of the things I like to do are box, lift weights, and spend time with my beautiful wife Crystal. I also enjoy watching shows on Netflix or playing video games with my son when I can find some free time.
