TechRadar recently ran a WhatsApp poll asking 'What camera do you use – mirrorless, DSLR, phone, or all of the above?' Phones overwhelmingly came out on top, but it was also striking how many votes DSLR got, with almost twice as many votes as mirrorless (see below).
Shoppers are also putting their money where their WhatsApp votes are. During the Black Friday / Cyber Monday sales, the most popular camera deals on TechRadar by click-through were by far those for entry-level DSLRs. Sure, cheaper gear flies off the shelves in greater volume, but even entry-level mirrorless cameras at the same price point, like the Canon EOS R100, couldn’t compete with the Rebel T7 / EOS 2000D DSLR (the deal on which, by the way, was far from the best in our roundups).
