The digital camera market is expected to grow from US$ 8,290.25 million in 2021 to US$ 12,119.44 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.6% during 2021–2028.
The use of digital cameras has not just been limited to personal and professional photography, but has been extended across entertainment, media, and sports industries. The film industry is one of the largest and most lucrative categories in the global entertainment industry. For instance, China's film industry is one of the world's largest film industries, churning out revenue of about US$ 6.6 billion in 2016. This promising outlook of the film and entertainment industry is expected to drive the demand for digital cameras to achieve perfect shots and videos. Rapid technological changes, consumer behavior, and business models have changed the way consumers want to experience and pay for entertainment and the media. The leaders in this industry are concentrating on building fan-focused businesses and brands to produce outstanding content. As a result, they invest a significant amount on technologies and equipment such as computer-generated image (CGI) and visual effects (VFX), as well as advanced cameras.
Also, there is indispensable use of digital cameras in sports media. The installation of high speed and digital cameras at stadium offers spectators to see slow motion replays at critical game situations and helps obtain accuracy while watching. Similarly, the use of high-resolution digital cameras in wildlife, landscape, architecture, and studio photography helps obtain sharp and crisp images and videos. The rising focus toward action photography has subsequently promoted the demand for compact digital cameras, such as GoPro. Further, social media platforms, such as Instagram, have substantially expanded the scope for photography, which, in turn is expected to proliferate the growth of the digital camera market

However, DSLR camera manufacturers are now focusing on integrating software enhancements and other technologies in these cameras for enhanced consumer experience, this factor is expected to drive the demand in the coming years.
With the growing trend toward photography, the demand for digital cameras is expanding. Digital camera allows to capture and store photos and videos digitally rather than printing it to film as per traditional analog cameras. As the consumers are becoming enthusiastic toward sight capturing, the demand for compact, lightweight, and high-quality cameras is rising. Further, the introduction of digital cameras and smartphones has created photography a mainstream profession, which have subsequently generated the need for high quality cameras with user-friendly interface and affordable price.

A mirrorless system camera does not involve a mirror box within its body and are designed with a compact and attractive exterior with an electronic viewfinder paired with interchangeable lens. Such cameras offer convenience in use compared to digital SLR cameras owing to their smaller and lighter structure. Mirrorless camera comprises lens at the front body along with sensor placed inside and a screen along with an optional viewfinder placed at the back. Additionally, such cameras have small, short, and light lenses and are constructed with a tiny LED or OLED screen, which helps to deliver best possible results altogether. Hence, the expanding demand for mirrorless cameras is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the growth of the digital cameras market.
