Looking for a DSLR camera? This page brings together digital SLR cameras from Canon, Nikon and Sigma, from beginner lens kits to full-frame bodies for demanding work. Excellent Photo is a camera store at 5387 Park Avenue in Montreal, and we ship across Canada.
How to choose a DSLR camera
Start with the sensor size. Full-frame models suit low light, portraits and studio work, while smaller-sensor models are lighter and a good fit for travel, family photos and sports. You can compare both on our Full Frame DSLR Camera and Crop Sensor DSLR Cameras pages.
- First camera: a kit with a lens, such as the Canon EOS Rebel T7 DSLR Camera with 18-55mm IS Lens Kit, lets you start shooting right away.
- Sports, wildlife and travel: the Nikon D7500 DX-Format DSLR Camera - Body Only is a DX-format body, and a lens kit adds a versatile zoom.
- Professional and high-resolution work: the Nikon D850 FX-Format DSLR Camera - Body and the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV Full-Frame DSLR Camera are full-frame options.
Also decide between a body only and a lens kit. If you already own lenses, check that their mount matches the camera you choose; our DSLR Lens - Nikon F Mount page is a good place to look for Nikon lenses. Not sure a DSLR is right for you? Compare with our Mirrorless Cameras.
Brands we carry

Frequently asked questions
What is the best DSLR camera for a beginner?
A body with a kit lens is the simplest start. The Canon EOS Rebel T7 with 18-55mm IS lens is one such kit on this page.
Should I buy a full-frame DSLR camera?
Full-frame is worth considering if you shoot in low light or want maximum image quality. For everyday use, a smaller-sensor body is often enough.
Is a digital SLR camera the same as a DSLR?
Yes. Digital SLR and DSLR are two names for the same type of camera.
