The most popular cameras in the world today

I started this forum for any collecting hobby and it turned into my camera collecting and using forum. I use it mostly to keep a record of my photo adventures. Nobody but me seems to have photo adventures that visit here....but however. I have so many cameras now that I forget which is which and which ones work and which ones don't. If you have cameras and adventures you would be welcome to post here.

The most popular cameras in the world today

Post by Niner » Fri Jun 16, 2023 11:42 am

I saw this post linking to a study made from flicker images to try to determine what the most popular cameras in the world are by country or geography. Interesting surmises. This is one graphic of the most popular cameras, over all, in the world today. One graphic that surprised me was that Russia is one of the few places that ranks Nikon number one and Canon is the overwhelming favorite.

Somehow I wonder about the conclusions as to reality. A Canon EOS 5D Mark IV retails for something like $2500 plus the lens. I can see professionals and amateurs with deep pockets going for it, but "real" people going on vacation or taking pictures of junior's ball game team and sis's birthday party...... probably not.

Here's another survey of 1000 users that is totally different. Still..... weighing more toward expensive cameras.
