The point-and-shoot market collapsed, but the dslr market is not nearly as dramatically affected with 2010 numbers not too far off 2018 numbers based on statista charts[1]. On the other hand, mirrorless is starting to show growth[2]. Looking at the overall camera-sales are misleading, especially considering that it largely shuffled numbers around within big companies: A Samsung point-and-shoot with a Samsung sensor became a Samsung smartphone with a Samsung sensor, selling even more units with the camera still being a primary selling point. --- [1]: https://seekingalpha.com/article/4242091-why-nikon-and-canon-should-lower-prices-of-lenses-and-camera-accessories https://seekingalpha.com/article/4242091-why-nikon-and-canon...
