Quote:Slightly increased revenues to 173 billion yen (+4%)In the mean time. Or just "meanwhile".
Massively increased profits to 12.3 billion yet (+170%) - although not impressive.
Increased sales target to 5mio X-cameras up from 4.6mio for this FY.
In the meanwhile Canon blamed mirrorless for shrinking business.
Where did Canon blame mirrorless? They blame (rightfully so) camera phones for the drop in compact camera sales. And the interchangable lens camera drop due to market shrinkage.
Meanwhile, Sony is doing very well (sarcasm) with mirrorless:
27.2% drop of total camera sales, compared to Canon's 24% (-17% in interchangeable lens cameras). Sony also blames market shrinkage.
