ZITATSony is about to take over the global no. 1 spot in non-DSLR digicams this year, reports The Nikkei.
> Sony Corp. (6758) expects to ship 26 million units, an increase
> of 11%. Its projection for shipments of compact digital cameras
> is higher than Canon's.
Meanwhile, Panasonic is moving to the no. 3 spot:

> by 34% to 13 million units. This would make it the third-ranked firm,
> up from fifth place.
Canon intend to remain as the no. 1 overall because of the DSLR-dominance:
> Canon Inc. (7751) intends to remain the global leader by shipping
> 29.4 million units, an increase of 20% on the year, with digital
> single-lens reflex cameras accounting for 4.4 million of this.
The leading Japanese business paper collected the sales projections for financial year 2008 from the leading, Japanese manufacturers (excluding Kodak of the US and Samsung from Korea from the list).
