Astro Showdown: Sony vs Canon vs Nikon – Best Cameras for Shooting the Stars in 2025
Sony’s Alpha mirrorless cameras, including the A7S III and A7 IV, are noted for high-ISO performance and features like “Bright Monitoring.” Canon’s EOS R6 Mark II and R5 Mark II draw praise for low-light capability, with dedicated astro models like the EOS Ra. Nikon’s Z8 and Z6 II/III offer long in-camera exposures and night vision modes. Mirrorless cameras now outnumber DSLRs in top astrophotography images since 2022.
