In a interview with Bloomberg, Takafumi Hongo, a company spokesman, said that “Canon forecasts sales of about 7 million single-lens reflex cameras this year, compared with sales of 5.9 million last year.
Shipments of SLR cameras jumped 30 percent last year, more than double the 13 percent gain by compact models, according to the Camera & Imaging Products Association, a Tokyo-based industry group. Canon had the biggest share of the market, with 44.5 percent, research company IDC said in April.”
