So it Be… Maybe

Choosing the best cameras of 2009 is not an easy task. 2009 was a bad year for the digital cameras market. The financial market crisis together with the smart phones with built in cameras caused the digital cameras market to shrink in 2009 after the digital cameras market grew by 24% percents in 2007 and by 10% in 2008.

Efficient digital camera makers from Taiwan which provide good cameras for reasonable prices had grabbed a large market share in 2009 reaching almost 60% percents of the market.

Sony with a new camera replacing the Sony Alpha 700 and Fuji SuperCCD EXR cameras also had major success in 2009.

The best cameras of 2009 might be popular ones that were released on 2008 like Olympus E-3, Casio EX-F1, Sony A350, Panasonic TZ5, Canon EOS 1000D, Nikon D3 or the super zoom camera Fujifilm S100fs.
