Dpreview readers voted the Sony A7 as the most important camera of the decade

Share

Dpreview writes:

So which camera did DPR readers crown the most important of the decade? The full-frame mirrorless cameras that started it all: the Sony a7 and a7R. Both cameras were far from perfect when they made their debut in 2013, but there’s no denying the influence that they’ve had on the industry as a whole since then.

Yep, I think we can all agree the Sony A7 changed the game in this decade. The question now is…will Sony still lead the pack in the next decade or will Canon and Nikon find the lead again?
