Camera sales in historic contaxt - Brightcolours - 03-04-2020
With all the doom and gloom about the camera sales decline, current sales numbers are still a lot higher than they have been in the film era.
Shipment of cameras and lenses

In Germany, it's actually not all that terrible with respect to lenses

But system cameras are clearly down

And mirrorless gear has now more marketshare ("Kompakte Systemkameras").
Makes me wonder about other markets. Germany is probably more conservative than most with respect to cameras vs smartphones.
