世論 What Japan Thinks

Last month goo Ranking published three surveys regarding digital cameras; what would you first shoot with a new digital camera, what is the most important point when selecting a digital camera, and finally what colour would you want the digital camera body to be.

As always, these rankings should be taken with a pinch of salt due to the lack of demographics and the open nature of the poll. Remember that the score listed is the percentage of votes for each choice relative to the top choice.
