Have your say: Most important cameras of the 2010s

Sony NEX - Mirrorless APSC MILC which adapted lots of lenses and started an upswing for Sony market share
Sony A7 - The camera that let Sony overtake the 2 big ones
Nikon D800 - The "best" landscape FF DSLR at its time and for quite a while; A wicked combo of 36mp (at its time), good modern lens selection to support it.
Oly OMD - m4/3 with style
Fuji XT1 - The cumulation of Fuji's venture back into cameras/lenses (and with most of the issues fixed from the previous few models)
Pentax K1 - The cumulation of all the good stuff present in the apsc offerings + in a FF format (ie. sensor SR, pixel shift, astro tracer, composition adj, extended B mode, etc)

Canon: the 5DII (THE popular full frame digital spec), 7D (first consumer grade fast shooter)
Nikon: D800E (significant step up in IQ), D500 (strong dynamic shooter)
Pentax: K5 (CMOS dynamic range) and 645D, Z (first affordable MF).
Ricoh Theta 360
Fuji XT1 (mirrorless with good decent on sensor PDAF)
Sony A7III (mirrorless FF with decent on sensor PDAF)

Everything else was a "me too" product with or without improvement.

TBH, I'm surprised DPR included the K-1, given that they are not exactly Pentax fans.

They aren't fan of nothing, they help develop the camera sales of amazon via content marketing and direct links to amazon product pages.
