Published 31 October 2024 by MPB

A graphic showing the top 10 Most Popular Camera Bodies and Lenses from MPB (June–September 2023), with the Sony A7 III and Canon EOS 5D Mark IV in first and second place, followed by the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM, Fujifilm X-T3, Nikon D850, Fujifilm XF 18-55mm f/2.8–4 R LM OIS, Nikon D750, Fujifilm X100V, Fujifilm X-T4 and Canon EOS 5D Mark III.

  • Looking at the most popular gear in Q3 2023 reveals the continued dominance of the Sony A7 III, the most popular camera body since 2022, ahead of Canon.

  • Two DSLR workhorses—the 2016 Canon EOS 5D Mark IV and 2017 Nikon D850—are firmly in the top ten, reflecting their quality, reliability and longevity.

  • Fujifilm fights against the 'Big Three' with four spots in the top ten—a surge in social media popularity, especially among content creators, helps the Fujifilm X100V rise 22 places since 2022.

  • Celebrating its 18th birthday, the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM remains as popular as ever. With its focal range and L-series quality, this versatile lens holds its worth well and has so far never seen relegation from our top ten.

  • The Canon EOS 5D Mark III falls seven places but still retains its place in the top ten, a decade since its release.

  • Can the Sony A7 IV continue its rise next quarter? Increased availability has helped it rise 104 places, up to number 17, so we expect it to enter the top 10 soon.

  • In the top ten, the average age of gear is almost eight years from its release date—with only two models released in the last three years.
