BCN Ranking has published its list of the top 50 best-selling cameras from January 1 to January 31 2025 and the top dog isn’t exactly a surprise. That’s right, the Canon EOS R10 is handed the laurel wreath yet again, having topped the standings during November and December. The results point towards the Japanese domestic market’s appetite for APS-C cameras, with all of the top ten sellers featuring crop sensors.

Sony boasts the largest presence on the list, with 15 entries, closely followed by Canon and Nikon with 11 and 10 entries, respectively. Only six Fujifilm entries is a slight surprise, given the manufacturer’s popularity of late, with OM System / Olympus and Panasonic bringing up the rear.

The most frequently featured cameras on the list are the Canon EOS R50, Fujifilm X-M5, and OM / Olympus PEN E-P7, each with four entries. And while full-frame cameras are in the minority, the Sony A7C II manages to feature three times. And just in case you thought the DSLR was dead, the Nikon D7500 just made the cut as the lone DSLR entry at 49.
