Current status of China’s camera market
According to sales data released in early 2021, global digital camera shipments in 2020 were 8.88 million units, a 41.6% decrease compared to 2019.
According to the latest market research from Technavio, the digital camera market will shrink in the next 3 years. It is now expected that its market size will decrease by $284.66 million by 2025 compared to 2020.
This may be due to forces such as the rise of premium smartphones, which may replace dedicated cameras. However, according to the latest report, this is also due to the current fragmentation in the market. The digital camera market is divided into several different categories, ranging from DSLRs to compact cameras, and is likely to further diversify into emerging hybrid segments as technology evolves.
The most important thing is that the digital camera market is still dominated by several well-known manufacturers, including Fujifilm , Nikon , OM (formerly Olympus ), Polaroid and Ricoh . At the same time, Canon , Nikon, Panasonic , Samsung and Sony are still the top 5 in the industry. However, their high growth is offset by the high cost of retail sales.
Nonetheless, Technavio foresees some opportunities in this market, especially as innovation and emerging products develop. The report also states that the increasing usage of social media platforms is one of the key drivers for the growth of the global digital camera market during the forecast period.
Chinese camera market trends
Of course, as a digital camera giant, Canon itself is also transforming into the medical field with more development prospects. At last year's CIIE, Canon made its debut in the medical pavilion and released a variety of medical imaging products including the OCT-S1 ultra-wide-angle blood flow optical coherence tomography scanner and 3T magnetic resonance equipment equipped with high-definition MR imaging technology. Previously, Canon had acquired Toshiba's medical instrument business and used photography technology in the production of precision medical inspection instruments such as PET-CT.
In addition, Canon also uses image processing system technology in emerging fields such as robot production system management and autonomous driving, and makes full use of artificial intelligence technology to shift part of the production line to the production of industrial cameras, which will be used in construction. Automatic quality inspection on site, automatic detection of cracks in tunnels and bridges. Canon also looks forward to occupying a place in the low-orbit satellite industry in the future world. The low-orbit satellite manufactured by the company using superb photography technology was launched in 2017.
