There is nothing better that you can give a new parent, a grand parent or a blogger (#HintingSeason is in full effect) for Christmas (or birthday or anniversary or I just want to celebrate the moments in our lives). The reason is a phone camera is pretty wonderful and convenient but there is nothing like a DSLR camera. Better yet, is one equipped with built-in Wi-Fi so you can share amazing photos! What creative writer and proud parent wouldn’t want that? Those are the kind of cameras that a blogger you REALLY WANT (did I mention it is the #hintingseason?).

There is no better time than the present to get a great DSLR camera @Best Buy. It is the ultimate destination for the latest cameras and camcorders to capture your high-stakes memories. These three cameras from Nikon, Sony and Samsung, all come equipped with built-in Wi-Fi so you can share amazing photos with ease. Upgrade your camera in time to capture precious holiday memories.
When you go to the individual specs for each of the cameras in the links below you will have the opportunity to read the Rants and Raves on each one. This will give you a much better idea of what people really think. We are all bias in some sort of way. Growing up I always had Nikon lenses in my eye glasses so I always think that they are the best. My dad owned a Nikon camera and used it often when I was growing up.
When my hubby and I got married we bought our first ‘real’ camera and it was a Canon. We loved it because it was easy to use and it took great pictures. Once we invested in large zoom lenses it was a no-brainer that when it was time to upgrade to a digital camera, we continued our journey with a Canon.
A few years ago, when I wanted versatility and the ability to share photos using cloud computing and being able to share via WIFI, I bought myself a small Samsung camera. I liked it because having a Samsung phone, it easily integrated the two by having syncing capabilities. Its size meant it was easy to carry and the picture quality was wonderful. Unfortunately, it was stole from my daughter’s knapsack while she was travelling.
So if you are looking to buy a new camera or surprise a blogger in your family (#hintingseason #3) then you might want to review the three options listed below.

I love Best Buy, it is my go to store for technology! Thanks for sharing!
I love the Nikon camera. I’m delighted that I got one for Christmas! So happy 🙂
I need a new lens and want to check out new cameras and I never knew BB had cameras. Good to know!
These are all awesome cameras. I really like the Samsung Galaxy 2 digital camera. Best Buy is the best place to shop for electronics. Thanks for sharing.
Best Buy is my favourite place to buy electronics and I am now wanting to hint at the Samsung Camera although I already have a DLSR
This looks like a great camera! I bet my fiancee would love it as an xmas present!
I love shopping at Best Buy for cameras and other electronics. I love the look of that Sony and Samsung cameras.
O wow!!! I would be very happy if Santa left any of these fabulous cameras under the tree for me 😉
It’s so fun looking at all the cameras at Best Buy! I just got a new camera for the birthday and there were so many to pick from.
These are great looking camera and as I get more serious with my blogging I think I need to up my camera skills, the iphone saves me well enough but i think i could do with an upgrade
I have always felt like Best Buy is THE Go-to for all things tech and entertainment. I used to work there, too, so I know it’s a great company.
Great gift guide 🙂 Best buy has it all!
I am actually planning to buy that Samsung Galaxy Camera to. I just love its design and picture quality!
There are some things you just have to get at Best Buy – and it’s ,ore fun -:) Great post
how cool that it has wifi and you can instantly share your photos. 🙂 i don’t think mine has that technology yet, but we don’t need to upgrade our dslrs yet. i think we’d wait for the successor to the mark III to come out and see if it’s worth it.
I’ve always shot with Samsungs and Canons, I’ve never tried a Nikon yet but I’d like to. All of my cameras have always come from Best Buy because they have great deals not just on the cameras but on other accessories as well.
I recently purchased a camera from Best Buy for a friend for Christmas. In the process of doing research on my own for a new camera as well!
This camera looks really amazing – and what a great deal! Thank you so much for sharing!
I will be shopping at Best Buy when I upgrade to a fancy camera. I love all of the options they have.
