Are Canikon phasing out their DSLRs yet??....... 

They don't tell you, of course. They are happy to milk you until it doesn't generate profits anymore.
But the messages from various interviews are pretty clear I'd say.


How long did it take for Sony? Technically they still have the A99 II in store ... but ...

 
   Ah the Sony A99 ........ Sony's cul de sac range! ...... 

It must be differentiated between "exiting stock" which resides in their warehouses awaiting orders, which produces money from previous investment....... and new production! ....... new production will be sparse ...... Nikon still has "D series lenses" on their lists ...... some are still buying the 180mm F2.8D to this day ....... surely not in production for some years. (and there's still a waiting list on the 500mm  PF)..
   Sales figures are one thing, but ownership figures are another ....... the fact that overall sales figures are declining means that it is likely that DSLR numbers will never be matched by the ML camera in the coming years ......... just by the overall market continuing to fall and giving way to the ubiquitous telephone ...... Ugh !!
 Camera manufacturers realize the free ride is over and they must realize income from wherever they can ....... I don't know much about Canon ....... but Nikon's existing stock in lenses is worth what percentage proportion of their annual revenue??
In the short term this income requires nothing but processing the sale ...... in the long term of course it's effect becomes less useful.
Lastly, at it's present level, how many years will it take to replace all the existing DSLR lenses out there? ...... never probably! ......
........ and for how much longer will the market remain even at it's present level ..?
