Sony produced 1,15 million mirrorless cameras in 2020 beating both Canon and Nikon

The Japanese website Sankeibiz.jp unveiled the camera production numbers for 2020

2020 Mirrorless production

  • Gross domestic product … 3.26 million units
  • Sony … 1.15 million units
  • Canon … 1.05 million units
  • Nikon … 250,000 units

2020 Digital SLR production

  • Gross domestic product … 2.39 million units
  • Canon … 1.71 million units
  • Nikon … 650,000 units

So as you see Canon is still ahead of Sony if you count the total DSLR+Mirrorless production. Nikon is the company really struggling at the moment.

Curiosity: The Sony A9 just leaked a secret Dutch government document :)

Funny note….Reuters reports:

Talks on forming a new Dutch government were put on hold on Thursday when one of the chief negotiators unwittingly revealed a sensitive document to a news photographer while rushing out of parliament after learning she had tested positive for COVID-19.

At Nos.nl you can see the actual photographer showing the leaked document on his Sony A9.

Thanks to the anonymous tipster!

Japanese market share analysis: Sony and Fuji on the rise, Canon and OM Digital decline

According to BCNranking Sony increased it’s mirrorless market share on the Japanese market up to 34%. Canon had a slight decline down to 22% and Fuji is getting closer to Canon at 20%. There has been a quite dramatic sales drop for OM Digital which is somewhat to be expected after the transition. What’s really worth to be noted: Nikon is far behind all of those companies. Quite worrisome!
