1. Cheapest Full Frame: Canon EOS 6D
The Canon EOS 6D gives you a 20.2 MP full-frame sensor with excellent low-light quality for the price of an entry-level camera. It has built-in Wi-Fi and GPS.
Skip it if you shoot moving subjects — its autofocus has only 11 points, with just the centre point cross-type, and it shoots 4.5 frames per second.
WorthyTen: from ₹18,550; Grades A, B and C in stock.
2. Best Value: Canon EOS 6D Mark II
The Canon EOS 6D Mark II fixes most of the 6D's limits: 26.2 MP, a 45-point all cross-type autofocus system, 6.5 frames per second, Dual Pixel autofocus in live view and a vari-angle touchscreen.
Skip it if you need 4K video or two card slots — it records Full HD and has one SD slot.
WorthyTen: from ₹37,650; Grades A, B and C in stock.
3. Best for Weddings: Canon 5D Mark IV or Nikon D750
Wedding photographers want two card slots, so every photo is saved twice. The Canon EOS 5D Mark IV has a 30.4 MP sensor, a 61-point autofocus system, 7 frames per second, a weather-sealed body and two card slots (one CompactFlash, one SD). The Nikon D750 has 24.3 MP, a 51-point autofocus system that works well in dim halls, a tilting screen and two SD slots.
Skip them if you want a small camera — both are large, heavy DSLRs.
WorthyTen: 5D Mark IV from ₹52,200 and D750 from ₹52,200; Grades A, B and C in stock. The older Canon 5D Mark III (from ₹33,500) also has two card slots (CompactFlash and SD).
4. Cheapest With Stabilisation: Sony A7 II
The Sony A7 II is the cheapest full-frame camera here with 5-axis in-body stabilisation, which steadies every lens you attach — even old manual lenses on an adapter.
Skip it if you need fast autofocus or long battery life — both are a generation behind the A7 III.
WorthyTen: from ₹50,400 body only, or ₹60,550 with the kit lens; Grades A, B and C in stock. The Canon EOS RP (from ₹46,950) is the smallest and lightest full-frame camera here — see our mirrorless guide.
5. Best Mirrorless Value: Nikon Z6
The Nikon Z6 has a 24.5 MP sensor, in-body stabilisation, 12 frames per second, 4K video without a crop and an excellent viewfinder. Nikon's FTZ adapter takes Nikon DSLR lenses.
Skip it if you need two card slots — it has a single XQD/CFexpress slot, and those cards cost more than SD cards.
WorthyTen: from ₹52,500; Grades B and C in stock. The Nikon Z6 II (from ₹78,100) adds a second slot (SD) and faster processing.
6. Best for Events and Video: Canon EOS R6
The Canon EOS R6 has a 20.1 MP sensor, in-body stabilisation, 12 frames per second with the mechanical shutter, 4K at up to 60p and two SD slots. Its autofocus tracks eyes reliably, which helps at weddings and events.
Skip it if you want the highest resolution for large prints — 20.1 MP is enough for most work but less than the 5D Mark IV.
WorthyTen: from ₹76,800; Grades A, B and C in stock.
7. Best All-Rounder: Sony A7 III
The Sony A7 III does everything well: 24.2 MP, a 693-point autofocus system with Eye AF, in-body stabilisation, 10 frames per second, 4K video, two SD slots and battery life rated by Sony at about 610 shots per charge with the viewfinder. Sony E-mount also has the widest range of second hand and third-party full-frame lenses.
Skip it if your budget is tight — it is the most expensive camera here.
WorthyTen: from ₹96,600 body only; Grades A, B and C in stock.
How to Choose
- DSLR or mirrorless? DSLRs (6D, 5D, D750) cost less and last longer per battery; mirrorless (A7, Z6, R6) has better autofocus tracking, in-body stabilisation and better video.
- Budget for lenses. A full-frame body with only a slow kit lens wastes its sensor. A second hand 50mm f/1.8 is a cheap way to start — browse second hand lenses.
- Pick the grade. Grade A looks almost new; Grade C shows wear but passes the same tests and carries the same 1-year warranty. On 28 October 2026 a Canon 6D Mark II body was ₹46,000 in Grade A and ₹37,650 in Grade C. See what the grades mean.
