The demand for digital cameras is rapidly shifting from developed countries to emerging nations, which is increasing the demand for accessories in these nations. The main reason for the shift in demand is the saturation of the market in developed nations, such as the US and the UK, where most consumers own in-built lens cameras or digital cameras. In addition, the penetration level of digital cameras is very low in emerging economies such as India and Brazil, which is resulting in an increasing demand from first-time buyers. The main driving factors in developing nations are an increase in disposable income, use of social networking sites, interest in photography, and so on.

According to the report, one of the major market drivers is the increase in the demand for interchangeable lens cameras, attributed mainly by their improved features and high-quality image. Women-centric advertisements and the availability of these cameras in different colors are also increasing the popularity of digital cameras among women.

Further, the report states that the growing popularity of smartphones is one such major challenge that has a negative impact on the sales of digital cameras and camera accessories.

The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
