Photographic Product Industry 2012-2017: Trend, Profit, and Forecast Analysis.”
The photographic products
industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in the manufacturing of photographic products such as cameras,
camcorders, lenses, and other products across all price ranges. Asia Pacific (APAC) dominated the industry with
the largest percentage of market share in 2011. APAC and the Rest of the World (ROW) regions emerged as the
fastest growing during 2006-2011.

one another. Disposable income, sharing on social networking sites, and increasing interest in photography mainly
generate demand for this industry. Increasing cost of raw materials is a challenge for the industry; however, the

consumer spending affect market dynamics significantly. More than 80% companies are of Japanese origin.
