Canon to Sell 19.2 million Digital Cameras in 2006
Canon are set to meet their target of a 46% profit rise for camera sales, reports Reuters. “Iwashita said it may top that figure on robust sales of new products, including the EOS 30D (pictured) digital single lens reflex (SLR) camera, a high-end model launched in March that features a 8.2 megapixel image sensor and sells for about 160,000 yen ($1,386).” Canon also said that they will not enter a price war with the likes of Sony and Panasonic, two new entrants to the DSLR market.
