the results are in.

sony seems to be disappearing in Japan.

a) no longer in the top 3 vendors for either P&S and SLR's

b) dropped pretty far % wise to 2nd place in MILC (lost 10% marketshare)

OM, Sony and Canon.. I was off with my guess.. close though, however canon certainly didn't gain as much as i thought.

To be honest I am a bit supposed that Sony actually placed in the top three for mirrorless. I just don't see many of them out on the streets compared to the M this past two years in Japan.

I was surprised they got so high.  alot of products I guess? A7 gen I and gen II, A6000, 5100,etc.

however. one thing to note is the fact that Mirrorless in Japan took a tumble last year by the looks of it only being around 30% of shipments.

doing some rough math, sony fell to around 7.5% of marketshare overall from 15% the year prior.

(probably explaining some of your thoughts)
