Digital Camera Prices Fall as Christmas Approaches

December 19, 2004 | Mark Goldstein | Digital Compact Cameras | Comment |

Both digital camera and memory card prices fell in the USA during October, ahead of the holiday season:

“Digital camera prices fell 7.4 percent to an average of about $192 as manufacturers released new models and discounted older lines to take advantage of expected heavy demand during the holiday season.

“New high-end models in the six- to seven-megapixel range have begun hitting the market, forcing prices down across the board and delivering exceptional values in the largest segment of the market, the three-megapixel category,” said NPD analyst Stephen Baker.”
