Let’s explore the most used smartphones and cameras on Flickr in 2024. We are writing this article on December 22, 2025, which means 2024 is almost over, and the data we have from Flickr indicates the cameras and smartphones being used by most of their users worldwide.
If you explore the stats, Apple dominates Flickr with approximately 32% of the analyzed photos. That means 32% of the Flickr audience uses Apple devices to capture photos. Just after Apple, the most loved camera brand is Canon, with most of their cameras, including the Canon R5, EOS 5D Mark IV, and EOS 6D Mark II, maintaining a very strong presence. Additionally, Nikon’s Z8 is being loved by the Flickr community. Other than that, for Sony, we have the Sony A7 III, A7 IV, and A7R V also being very popular.
Here’s the completed table Flickr’s most popular cameras of 2024:

The CES 2025 event is scheduled to happen from January 7 to January 10 in Las Vegas. Different types of tech brands come from across the globe to showcase their innovative products at this particular event.
Now, from Nikon this year, Nikon will showcase an Innovative in-vehicle camera system co-created by Nikon and Mitsubishi Fuso to be exhibited at CES 2025 and we are expecting they will also showcase their recently announced Nikon Z63 and Z50 2 cameras, and we may witness some of the cinema camera prototypes that Nikon is working on.
Like every year, Canon will be showcasing its compact prototypes at the event.
During the CES 2025 event, Sony has an extensive presence and has booked multiple halls. At the same time, we are not sure, since Alpha Universe and other websites haven’t listed any of their events in the January month of their scheduled calendar.
Apart from these three camera makers, we also have Fujifilm Corporation attending the event. We are expecting the presence of the Fujifilm medium-format cinema camera prototype that we saw a few weeks ago. Upcoming Fuji Cinema Camera Explained in 15 Points | Fuji Cinema Camera A Closer Look
Panasonic has also booked multiple halls since they have a huge presence in the consumer electronics market. At this same time, we are not able to find any registered Booth name with Lumix, which is the brand name used by Panasonic for their mirrorless cameras. It will be interesting to see whether Panasonic Corporation will allow the imaging division, Lumix, to showcase their products in their booked halls or not, so we have to wait for that.
We will share more information if we get any updates related to other camera makers and upcoming products.

Nikon in a recent press release mentioned
“Innovative in-vehicle camera system co-created by Nikon and Mitsubishi Fuso to be exhibited at CES 2025”
Camera with an optical lens system with telephoto and wide-angle functions to be exhibited at CES 2025
Nikon Corporation (Nikon) will exhibit an innovative in-vehicle camera system co-created with Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation (MFTBC) at CES 2025. The camera features an optical lens system with both telephoto and wide-angle lens functions, enabling users to see far away and also check their periphery at the same time.
We will have our camera gear for the rest of the booths. Although I was expecting to see a cinema camera working prototype in the show, let’s hope for the best.
Canon Booth Details
Booth – Venetian Expo, Hall G – 61101
Back in 2024, Canon displayed several prototypes of their working compact models [Canon’s previous year cameras displayed at the CES show]. Now we are waiting for 2025, and I do hope and expect we will see attractive prototypes from Canon at this CES 2025
SONY Booth Details
More than two halls of space are booked for Sony and their subsidiary divisions, but at the same time, we don’t have information on whether Sony’s imaging division is also attending CES 2025 or not.

We have already seen the auto area framing of the Sony cameras that have been popular quite a bit among content creators, and the auto area framing is typical, as we have seen, and now works on a single subject. At the same time, it has multiple boxes, typically three different sizes available: one is small, medium, and large. Once you select one of the boxes, the camera automatically frames your subject and crops it in the video’s final version, so it seems like someone is shooting your video. It is really helpful to content creators, those who shoot with wide-angle lenses and create videos and vlogs of their daily life routine, or, let’s say, their cooking videos. In this specific area, the auto area AI framing works very well.
Canon AI Auto Framing Tech Tracks, Crops, and Save
We recently saw a patent stating that Canon is also working on auto AI framing technology. In this technology, the camera automatically frames the subject depending on the user’s choice and saves cropped portions of the video to the SD card (of your choice), or you can say as a final product.
After looking at the details, it is very clearly visible the camera will save multiple video clips of the same video by cropping in on the selected multiple subjects in a single frame. It might depend on the user which clip they want to keep and wish to delete. The other option is they can tap on the subjects, either subject A or B, so that the camera will only save the clip of the subject that has been selected by the user among the multiple subjects present on the screen.
Canon Updated Menu System with AI Auto Framing
Canon AI Auto Framing Coming in Canon R6 Mark III or Canon R7 Mark II?
We may see the AI auto-framing feature of the Canon cameras in the upcoming Canon R6 Mark III and the Canon R7 Mark II cameras since it’s not a kind of hardware thing. In general, when Canon does a hardware patent, it generally takes 2 to 3 years. Still, since this is a software-based patent and the working principle of the AI auto-framing is solely dependent upon the DIGIC accelerator chip present inside Canon cameras, once introduced with the Canon R6 Mark 3 as well as R7 Mark 2, later on, these updates will be processed over the cameras with an AI accelerator chip inside them.
Even in the screenshot of the menu that I shared with you, you can clearly see the camera has dual card slots inside it. That indicates none of the entry-level cameras will have these features. As of now, only the cameras with the AI accelerator chip and dual card slots, which indicate a professional body, will have the AI auto-framing capability.

Viltrox has announced 35mm f/1.7 Air lens for bodies FX, E, and Z mount. One of the best things about this particular lens is its price—at just $180, you are getting a 35mm f/1.7 lens for these mounts, and this is a full-frame lens, so you can use it on your full-frame as well as APS-C bodies.
AF 35/1.7 Full-frame equivalent 52.5mm is a standard-angle lens for portrait photography, daily photography, and food photography. It is undoubtedly another affordable lens for the beginner.
Main features:
1. High-efficiency autofocus: STM motor with screw-type guide rod
2. Lightweight and compact size for easy carrying
3. High-quality standard lens with F1.7 wide aperture and pure blur
4. Reliable video performance: extremely low breathing effect
5. Optimized lens hood with longer length, better light-shielding effect
The lens’ optical formula includes 11 elements in 9 groups, with 1 ED lens, 1 aspherical lens, and 2 high-refractive lenses. It also features nano-coating, and the aperture has nine blades. While Viltrox makes no claims of weather resistance, the front element does have a coating to resist oils and liquids.

According to the latest coming from the Fuji rumor mill, the Fuji X-Pro3 successor, which might be called the Fuji X-Pro 5 or the Fuji X-Pro 6 depending upon the time of its arrival and siblings’ name at that time, is delayed and one thing for sure no X-Pro 4 coming. Even the rumor mill is sure of one thing NO X-PRO series update will arrive in 2025, which is why it’s safe to say it may arrive in 2026.
So what’s the biggest reason that Fuji is continuously delaying the update of the Fuji X-Pro series camera? The marketing team has seen the sales numbers of the Fuji X-Pro3 camera, and due to the LOW VOLUME of purchases made compared to the previous two versions of the camera, the series has been delayed for further updates.
And what’s the biggest reason behind the low sales numbers of the X-Pro3? It was the display screen. They have created a unique kind of display screen, which was good for nothing, and if you want to see the actual display of the camera, you have to go through a very hard way. The display was not properly tilting in the backward direction of the camera, so it was kind of an entire design blunder. They were trying to make a kind of Leica M11 series or what we don’t know at this moment, but the existing user base of the X-Pro series camera was not that happy. Even at the time of the announcement, I have posted the comments I have received, and the feedback that I received at that moment mostly suggested that better to invest in the X-T series rather than getting this camera with this weird type of display.
Fuji must learn from their past mistakes. Whenever they want to announce the X-Pro series, it’s completely good; it depends upon their own marketing team’s decision and whatever future strategies they have—it’s all okay. But they should at least include a good fixed display screen in their camera, or even if they want to add a very handy tilting display, it’s most welcome. They should keep it as simple as possible for photographers.

According to the latest rumors from trusted rumor mills, the R6 Mark III camera will have a display screen design similar to the Sony A7R5 camera. That means it will feature a tilting and a very versatile display screen altogether.
The second improvement that we will witness is the use of an OLED monitor on the back display portion of the camera. Currently, Canon uses an LCD-type display, whereas other brands like Nikon, Sony, and Fuji use OLED. So for now, let’s hope and expect a massive improvement in the display part of the camera.
Other specifications of the R6 Mark 3 camera are said to remain the same as we have discussed earlier. That includes the 24MP stacked sensor, which is directly coming from the Canon R3 camera, 30 FPS of continuous shooting speed with electronics, and, of course, all the rest of the core specifications you can see below.
- 24-megapixel LC1720 sensor.
- DIGIC Accelerator accelerated processor, 8.5-stop collaborative image stabilization.
- Same focus system as EOS R5 II.
- Highly reliable 14-bit 30fps RAW electronic shutter continuous shooting, reading speed 1/180s.
- In-camera neural network noise reduction and high-resolution magnification.
- Supports XF-AVC S and XF-HEVC S recording of C4K/120p (S35) and 6K oversampled C4K.
- Supports 6K30p and 4K60p (S35) Cinema RAW Light recording.
- OLED monitor on the rear display with a versatile tilting and rotating design, similar to the Sony A7R5.
And one important thing to note down is that you will not be getting an eye-tracking electronic viewfinder in this segment. That is the R6 Mark 3. Yes, you will have an improved electronic viewfinder compared to the predecessor, but again, no eye-tracking is coming in this particular segment.
