Minolta MND65 MND65 Black

★★★★☆ 3.5 (12)

Its 13MP 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensor records 4K 60fps video and interpolates 56-megapixel stills, while a 3.0-inch IPS LCD aids framing. A secondary rear selfie lens and digital image stabilization simplify vlogging, and the 254g body with wireless connectivity boosts portability. Best for casual streamers and beginners needing a simple, compact camera for 4K selfie videos and basic content creation.
