Nikon is the most used camera in North Korea in 2021 according to this article published on a media outlet specializing in North Korean topics: Nikon is the most used camera by the State News Agency KCNA. Although the article is paywalled, here are two tweets published by NK NEWS:
“North Korea’s favorite camera appears to be the 2014 Nikon D750, which was used to shoot 656 KCNA images last year according to EXIF data […] The top five cameras used by KCNA are all Nikon DSLRs, responsible for 2,066 of the 2,504 shots from 2021,” writes Ángel García.
Extracting EXIF data from North Korean state media photos can give insight into what equipment photographers in the country use.
Nikon cameras were the most favored last year, with the employment of older models possibly suggesting limited resources.https://t.co/vDhq9skxBt
