Nikon maintains DSLR lead over Canon

I think more 'global' stats can paint a more objective picture on Canon vs Nikon market share and the relative growth and size of DSLR vs Compact market. Canon shipped 2.46 DSLRs million, 31% growth over last year. Nikon made 1.74 million shipments, 36 percent growth. Sony made 326,000 SLR shipments in 2006. Samsung and Panasonic shipped 43,000 and 36,000 SLRs, respectively. The overall camera market grew 15 percent to 105.7 million in 2006. The compact market grew 14 percent to 100.4 million. Total 5.3 million SLRs were shipped in 2006, 39% growth over last year. Yes I'd seen those stats for 2006 - couldn't find a link to them. They are very close to the % market shares for 2006 reported by BCN in Japan, and those market shares for Canon and Nikon have reversed since December 2006. I am kinda surprised that tables turned so fast, it will be interesting to see if global figures follow same trend :-) Thanks for the link. Sachin Garg [India] www.sachingarg.com | www.c10n.info |

Canon's 400D falls short of the D80 in several ways, and Nikon's D40/D40x are at a price point where Canon really has no competing product. Similarly, the D200 beats the 30D in several ways. Canon really needs to address the low to mid-range of the D-SLR lines. |
