Top Ten Sellers of the Decade

KEH has a list of their best-selling digital ILC cameras.
The SLR Still Rules Them All: Our Best-Selling Cameras Of The Decade (2010-2019) - Spotlight
ALL ten on the list are either Canon or Nikon products - in fact, they say all-but-one of the top fifty were manufactured by the two.

However, the Pentax K1000 was second on their list of used film ILC cameras.

This is an interesting read. I guess it says a lot about who their main clients are.

Well they actually say that all but from the top 50 were DSLRs, not that they were manufactured by Canon/Nikon. The only mirrorless in the top 50 is the A6000.

The film raking is far more interesting to me. They sold more Canon AE-1s than K1000s - that is interesting considering they probably don't throw K1000s away, so they had to have less K1000s in inventory - I guess people hold on to their K1000s? I say this because the AE-1 sold over a million units but the K1000 sold over 3 million.

Mamiya RB67 being in the top 10 is surprising to me. I didn't realize they had sold that many of those. I'd think the top 20 or 30 would all be 35mm SLRs.
