DPReview Readers’ Choice Awards 2018: the winners

The votes have been tallied and final results are in! After first picking winners in six sub-categories, DPReview readers voted for their top gear of 2018 from a final selection of twelve outstanding lenses and cameras. Without further ado, here are the results of that selection process.

Third place: Nikon Z7

With the third-highest number of votes, the Nikon Z7 earns a place as one of DPR readers’ favorite cameras of the year. It’s easy to see why: while there’s a little room for improvement, the Z7 packs excellent image quality and solid 4K video into a well-built package that’s a pleasure to shoot with.

Second place: Fujifilm X-T3

Fujifilm impressed a lot of folks with the X-T3 this year, ourselves included. Simply put, it’s one of the best hybrid stills/video cameras we’ve ever tested, and it clearly made an impression on a lot of our readers too as it earned the second-place position in our year-end poll.

Winner: Sony a7 III

The third-generation of Sony’s entry-level full framer is a huge leap forward for the system. Autofocus has been improved, with Eye-AF in continuous AF a stand-out feature, and Sony has even tried to make sense of its menus at last. But overall it’s the all-round capability that makes the a7 III so good: it’ll turn its hand to almost anything that’s asked of it, meaning it’s an excellent camera almost regardless of your needs. We’re not surprised so many of you were as impressed as we were.
