Photokina agency debunks some myths: Premium Digital Camera Msrket is increasing.


The last couple of years we heard a lot about the digital camera market being in crisis and the new mirrorless system cameras not taking off. Well, the Photokina partner agency GFK shared some unexpected data (Source: MirrorlessRumors):


1) Revenue increasing:

While it’s true that in terms of numbers the companies are selling less cameras it’s also true that companies are selling more high profit margin premium cameras! This means the last couple of years average price of the cameras increased (and therefore also the profit margins increased).




2) Mirrorless is taking off (slowly).

While Mirrorless keeps being not popular in US it’s taking off in all the rest of the world.


3) Premium fixed lens camera is growing fast

Sony certainly did the right thing with the RX line. They offered a premium and class leading range of fixed lens camera that are to-day unmatched by other companies.


The current trend in the market goes in favour of Sony that leads the probably two fastest growing segments in the digital camera market: Mirrorless and premium compacts. And as an addendum watch this nice graph that explains why smartphone users actually buy a larger sensor camera:

New low price for the Sony A7r in Europe!


You remember the time one year ago when you were dreaming to get a 36 Megapixel camera for less than 2000 Euro? Well this is a reality by now. And as you can see from the graph on top the price for the Sony A7r in Germany (and generally in Europe) fell quite a lot recently! The A7r sells for 1739 Euro only at Redcoon Germany (Click here). and 1599£ at WexUK (Click here). You can find even cheaper A7r sold by UK sellers like here (1576 Euro) and here (1694 Euro).


For that price it’s a real bargain!
