Imaging Resource reader's poll for Best Camera 2021: includes Pentax K-3 Mark III

Edit: Please note, this thread has integrated the posts from one I started without having seen the first one by @hcc.


What’s the best camera of 2021? Cast your vote in our 2021 Camera of the Year Reader Poll!

From their summary of the K-3 Mark III:

"In the hand, the K-3 III maintains that classic DSLR shape with a deep, highly-contoured handgrip and large, central viewfinder. The optical viewfinder, in particular, is all-new with a 100-degree FOV and an impressive 1.05x magnification factor. It's a bigger, better viewfinder than the previous model and offers a viewfinder experience like that of a full-frame camera. Overall, the Pentax K-3 III is an interesting camera, and there are things it can't do in comparison to some high-end mirrorless cameras these days. That said, its image quality is impressive, the weather-sealing is wonderful, and the viewfinder and ergonomics are fantastic. If you are someone who relishes an excellent optical viewfinder, lots of physical controls and excellent durability, the Pentax K-3 III makes a great choice."

The candidates include:

Fuji GFX 100S
Nikon z6 II
Nikon z7 II
Panasonic GH5 II
Pentax K-3 III
Sony A1
Sony A7 IV

I have always liked IR, and still do, but this is a dopey poll. Talk about apples and oranges...

I'd rather they ran the announcement about the new DFA 21.

Don't we all just love our kit; but forgive me if I love the results, the images actually made, a lot more.

"Editor's Note: You might be wondering where the Canon EOS R3 or Nikon Z9 are on our list of choices. While both cameras have been either announced or will be announced for the 2021 calendar year, we've not yet seen either camera model in-person to review yet. As such, the R3 and Z9 are not in the running for consideration for this year's Camera of the Year Awards. They both will, however, be at the top of the list for consideration in our 2022 awards!"

That's scary - if you'd asked me, I'd have said of course the R5 came out this year, if not yesterday!
