The best gifts for photographers will put a huge smile on the face of any camera nerd. Whether your loved one or friend is a keen wildlife photographer, a daring action camera videographer or simply a smartphone snapper, getting them a gift that supports their passion is bound to go down well.
But how do you know what the best gifts for photographers are? If you're reading this guide, that presumably means you're not a photographer or camera lover yourself (otherwise you'd know what to get, right?).
Well, don't worry. I've rounded up the best gifts for photographers here. I myself am a photographer, and as cameras editor I cover all the latest camera gear — all these gifts are stocking fillers I'd love to receive myself, so you can rest assured they'll go down well.
I've broken my list down into major groups so you can choose the gifts that suit your photographer friend best! There's a group for DSLR/mirrorless camera owners, one for action camera users, and one for every camera owner. I've also included a range of differently priced gifts so you can scale your gifts to your budget!
I've not included actual cameras or action cameras here, as I'm assuming your loved one already has the camera they want. If not, check out my best cameras and best action cameras roundups for my top picks.
Without further ado, here are the best gifts for photographers this holiday season.
