Photography Market Research
« on: July 27, 2009, 07:52:11 AM »
Hey Filmwasters,

Anybody know where to get some free general info on world-wide photography market research, such as digital/analogue camera usage, print services/labs, or other general industry stats/forecasts?

Much thanks if anybody has any leads...

Brian

flickr stats show camera usage somewhere. not sure if film cameras are included, though.

No, it doesn't give film camera usage. Their stats are entirely based on the camera's EXIF tags.

You could check the film sales data at Kodak and Fuji (annual reports)...
