While camera phones tend to do a great job of taking pictures, if you really want to take your photography to the next level, then one of the best things you can do is go for a standalone camera body with a lens or a point-and-click type camera. Not only do they have larger sensors to take a picture on, but the interchangeable lenses means you have better optical zoom and more control over it, so there's a lot of freedom to play around and find something that works best for your style. The downside is that cameras and lenses can be really expensive, which is why we've gone out and collected some of our favorite camera deals below, although you should probably check our guide on Mirrorless vs. DSLR before going through with a camera purchase.
