June 2026 CIPA numbers by ZoetMB

(All comparisons to YTD 2025)

Narrative: June 2026

June numbers can only be described as “meh”. It doesn’t look like there’s going to be much, if any, growth this year unless things pick up in the second half. However, total shipped value is up 5%, seemingly due to higher prices or consumers buying higher-end units.

Note: We’ll receive the Q1 fiscal 2027 Nikon numbers in about a week.

Compared to YTD 2025:

• DSLRs are down 37% in units and 35% in shipped value
• Mirrorless units are down 2% in units and up 6% in shipped value.
• Compacts are up 16% in units and 15% in shipped value.
• Lenses for smaller than 35mm sensors are up 3% in units and 10% in shipped value and lenses for 35mm and larger sensors are down 4% in units and up 2% in shipped value.
• The lens-to-body sales ratio is 1.56 compared to 1.49 a year ago.

We’re predicting total annual sales of between 6.26 and 6.69 million ILC bodies, slightly down from last month’s prediction.
