The availability in various price ranges is notably driving the market growth, although factors such as the proliferation of smartphones are hindering the digital camera market growth. Our researchers analyzed the data with 2022 as the base year, along with the key drivers, trends, and challenges. A holistic analysis of drivers will help companies refine their marketing strategies to gain a competitive advantage.
The availability of cameras in various price ranges is one of the key drivers supporting the digital camera market growth. Digital cameras are available in different price ranges depending on their features. For instance, more than 15% of digital cameras are priced under USD 50. These cameras provide basic digital camera features such as digital video resolutions of 1280 x 720 HD, waterproof capabilities, and others.
Around 20% of digital cameras are found in the price range of USD 50-USD 200. More than 60% of the digital cameras are high-end digital cameras, which provide features such as +200x zoom capabilities, video recording with autofocus, and others and are priced above USD 200. These varied price ranges allow consumers to choose digital cameras with the desired features as per their budget. This, in turn, will drive the digital camera market growth during the forecast period.
An increase in the use of action cameras is one of the key digital camera market trends fueling market growth. The popularity of social networking sites, growing adventure tourism, and advances in technologies to generate HD quality videos have increased the demand for action cameras. The advanced features of action cameras enable photographers to capture high-speed action in stills and videos.
The cameras also have a long battery backup and waterproof features and are easy to use in rough conditions. Action cameras assist in monitoring and improving the performance of professional athletes. Thus, the increase in the use of action cameras on a global scale has increased their sales globally during the forecast period.
The proliferation of smartphones is one of the factors hindering the digital camera market growth. Smartphones are popular devices nowadays and provide several high-end features that put them in direct competition with other electronic gadgets such as calculators, digital cameras, and others. The high-quality small cameras in cellphones are internet-connected, making it exceedingly simple for customers to share their /images quickly on social media.
For instance, Samsung, worked on a stunning 144MP photo sensor utilizing the 14nm FinFET technology, following up on a 108MP camera sensor. The Galaxy S11, which was launched in February 2020, has a Samsung 108MP camera sensor. The penetration of smartphones has been increasing as smartphones are more convenient than digital cameras. Thus, due to the growing sales of high-end smartphones, the sales of digital cameras are expected to decline during the forecast period.
The market report includes the adoption lifecycle of the market, covering from the innovator’s stage to the laggard’s stage. It focuses on adoption rates in different regions based on penetration. Furthermore, the report also includes key purchase criteria and drivers of price sensitivity to help companies evaluate and develop their growth strategies.

The offline segment was valued at USD 8,080.35 million in 2017 and continued to grow until 2021. Offline marketing tends to be more expensive compared with online marketing because it requires vendors to implement promotional campaigns. However, as a large share of the market is still held by the unorganized sector of the market, which does not have Internet access, offline distribution is the only way to reach customers. National and international campaigns and the availability of mom-and-pop stores have increased the credibility of the offline distribution channel. Such factors wil increase segment growth during the forecast period.
