About ShotPick
An independent, spec-based guide to interchangeable-lens and compact cameras.
ShotPick is published by Informative Buy, a small independent business run by Gerardo Galicia in Venice, California. We built it because cameras are still sold on brochure stills, video and autofocus claims, while the consistently published figures — official effective megapixels, official maximum continuous-shooting rate, official native stills ISO range and official in-body or in-camera stabilization — sit on the maker's own specification tables. Here, every product is compared on those official published fields, scored with a formula printed on the page, and linked back to its sources.
Today the site covers 3 categories, 129 products and 28 head-to-head comparisons, from full-frame interchangeable-lens bodies to APS-C and Micro Four Thirds cameras and compact or fixed-lens models.
How we research
- Official manufacturer specification tables first. Scored specs come from official Sony, Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm, Panasonic, OM System, Leica, Ricoh and Sigma specification tables. Each product lists the exact page we used.
- No guessing. If a figure isn't published, we show "Not listed" and score it at the lowest published value in the category, never as average.
- A transparent formula. Weights and scales are on every comparison and on our How we rank page.
- Honest about limits. Our comparisons are research-based. We don't claim hands-on lab testing, and we don't publish made-up reviews, ratings or prices.
How we make money
ShotPick participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. When you buy through a "Check price" button, Amazon may pay us a commission at no extra cost to you. Commissions never change the order of a ranking, and no brand can pay for placement. Details are in our affiliate disclosure.
