I’ve been a Canon user for over a decade and these 3 Prime Day camera deals under AU$1,000 deserve your click

As one of TechRadar’s camera experts, it’s fair to say that I’m a Canon fan. I’ve used and reviewed the company’s cameras for over 12 years, and keenly followed the brand’s exploits for even longer.

I’m amazed that Canon now has some mirrorless cameras that are already affordable, even though they’re still generally over AU$1,000 at full price. For this year’s Amazon Prime Day sale in Australia, however, those prices have dropped a little, coming down below that magic AU$1,000 mark, which makes this shopping event a fantastic opportunity to pick up a great camera.

And trust me when I say, all these cameras are very capable indeed. They’re all entry-level models and have featuresets that will help any beginner hone their skills. Even if you don’t want to get into advanced photography and just want a good camera to capture holiday moments with the family, these will serve you well.

Prices start at just over AU$870, with all these kits including at least a single lens in the box. What’s more, none of these are Prime-exclusive offers, so anyone can shop these deals for the same price. However, do note that being a Prime member does mean your delivery will be expedited, so it might be worth signing up if you aren’t already a subscriber.

Not everyone will want a camera with interchangeable lenses. If you’re after something more compact or for a different use case, there are other great cameras that you can currently pick up at sizable discounts.

Other cameras under AU$1,000

While I’m partial to the Canon cameras listed above, there are a couple of other options from OM System that are also worth considering.
