2019 results: Sony owns 49,1% of the worldwide Image Sensor market share

Pulsenews reports:

The world’s image sensor market is estimated to grow to $27 billion by 2023 from $17.2 billion in 2019, according market research firm Techno Systems Research (TSR). In the market, Sony took up the lion’s share of 49.1 percent, much bigger than 17.9 percent of Samsung Electronics.

I am looking forward to Sony’s next generation sensors for APS-C and FF cameras. I guess the first Global Shutter and 3 layer sensors might be coming in 2-3 years.
