Have Your Say 2017: The Winners As 2018 gets started in earnest, it's time to look back at what you thought of the best-of-the-best in photography gear in 2017. We first whittled everything down to your final choices after two rounds of voting, and our final poll culminated in thousands of votes cast across 16 choices.
Without further ado, let's see which product you've crowned as the absolute best of 2017.
Runner-up: Sony a9
In third place for our final poll is the sports-oriented Sony a9, garnering 10. 7% of votes and easily edging out the next-best performer, the iPhone X. As we stated in our full review, it's an incredibly capable speed-machine, and its 20 fps burst shooting with zero blackout is one of our favorite features.

Runner-up: Sony a7R III
In the second-place position in our final poll with 21. 3% of total votes sits the Sony a7R III. It's a supremely well-rounded camera, offering 42MP of resolution and 10 fps burst shooting while also improving ergonomics and battery life. We think it's the best camera Sony's made yet, is one of our joint-winners for High-end Camera of the Year as well as our choice for Product of the Year and it easily earned a Gold award in our full review.

Winner: Nikon D850
It's only fitting that each of our joint-winners for High-end Camera of the Year should be among your choices for the best products of 2017 - and with an impressive 25. 8% of total votes in our final poll, Nikon's D850 handily takes the top spot.
Although we picked the a7R III as our overall Product of the Year, the race between it and the D850 was incredibly tight, and you certainly can't go wrong with either. The D850 is truly a DSLR tour-de-force, blending speed, resolution and image quality with superb ergonomics and a vast lens ecosystem for nearly limitless creative possibilities. We've called it the best DSLR on the market, and now, you've crowned it as your favorite product of 2017.
