Most Popular Digital Cameras of July 2007

By Ben Stafford, DigitalCameraReview Staff | | 8135 Reads

We're just about ready for the back to school shopping season and I'm sure the parents have been ready for two months now. If you need a start with shopping, this list of cameras shows you what visitors of DigitalCameraReview.com looked at over the past month. The rankings are determined by the number of times a particular product page is viewed by our users. The rankings below are from the entire month of July 2007.

Between the June and July lists, there was just a little bit of shuffle within the top 5 cameras and three cameras fell off the bottom. It's pretty interesting to see the popularity of the Panasonic cameras continue to grow, with the number of Panasonic models equal to the number of Canon cameras.

For additional help while choosing a camera, you can register for our forums and ask as many questions as you want. If you're looking to buy, the best place to start is our Digital Camera Buying Suggestions forum. If you need help with your current camera, then we have forums for each brand of camera.
