Independent, hands-on gear reviews trusted by 120,000+ content creators every month.
VlogCamera.com was founded in 2023 out of frustration. As content creators ourselves, we were tired of camera reviews that read like spec sheets and drone recommendations that felt like paid advertisements.
We believed there was room for a publication that tested gear the way creators actually use it — walking and talking, filming in low light, shooting vertical for TikTok, running-and-gunning on travel days, and flying drones in real wind conditions.
Today, we review over 70 cameras and drones per year with a hands-on testing methodology that prioritizes real-world performance over synthetic benchmarks. Every piece of gear on our site has been personally tested by our editorial team.
We don't accept paid placements. Our rankings are based entirely on our own testing and editorial judgment. When we recommend a product, it's because we'd genuinely use it ourselves.
