Best Prime Day camera deals 2021: save big on Canon, Nikon and more today

Techradar:

Amazon Prime Day has kicked off – and there are some big Prime Day camera deals waiting to be added to your camera bag, particularly if you're in the market for a Canon, Panasonic or Nikon mirrorless camera. 

The best deals are focused on mid-range mirrorless cameras, which can spark a new photography hobby or act as the fulcrum of your new YouTube channel. Some choice deals on this front include a 20% price cut on the Canon EOS M50 (body only) and 17% off the excellent Panasonic GX9.

They're far from the only camera bargains on offer during Prime Day, with some excellent full-frame stars getting in on the action, too. In the UK, for example, you can get a rare £110 off the Nikon Z6 (our former number one camera) and a huge 28% off the Panasonic Lumix S5 with its 20-60mm kit lens.

If you're in the market for a new lens, then there are some fine options for you too – including big discounts on three Sony prime lenses and a tasty 21% off the Canon EF 24-70 mm f/4L IS USM for DSLRs.

These deals are all fresh out of Amazon's oven, so we'd suggest grabbing them fairly quickly, as it's possible some will sell out before the end of Prime Day. Whatever your budget or shooting style, there'll be a camera or lens deal for you in our top picks below.
