Hi everyone! I've been working on "bestof", a huge list of the "best" things in every category.

I came to the conclusion of these picks using both online reviews (both videos and articles) as well as online consensus in various different forums. A lot of them probably aren't very good, please lmk if my picks are terrible! I want to eventually turn this into a really useful source for people looking to buy X thing.

Please let me know if you have any questions or if there's any alterations I should make to my picks! Also, I would like feedback on how to improve the site as a whole!

improvements that others have suggested already:

  • higher contrast colour palette
    • What colour schemes do you think would fit this? I still want there to be a pop of colour, but right now it is very low-contrast
  • more information on WHY I picked the things I did
    • p.s. How should I go about this? Should it be a note at the bottom, a link, a tooltip, or something else?

anyways here's the link: https://swarbler.github.io/bestof/camera-gear/camera-gear/

Note that for the camera section, I've split it into different sections based on FF, APS-C, and M43, with subcategories for the different brands. Each brand has their own merits to their cameras. Should I add that to the site?

I do think that I should add in Olympus (or are they OM-System now?) cameras soon, but which ones are good options? Is the OM-3 any good? How about older models? I've heard that the OM-1 mark one is good value.

edit: I have migrated to codeberg, the old github pages link is dead.
