BCN Ranking surprise: Nikon at the #1 spot in fixed lens cameras in Japan with 31% market share

By [NR] admin | Published: July 22, 2018


BCN Ranking (now called BCN+R) published their digital camera ranking for the first half of 2018 and there is a surprise:

In the first half of 2018, Nikon got at the #1 spot in the fixed lens camera segment with a market share of 31% (Canon is now at the #2 spot). I am not sure how this happened since Nikon doesn’t really have any interesting Coolpix offering (except the P900), while Canon continues to produce high-end compact cameras. I can only imagine Nikon’s market share if they did not cancel the DL line.

With mirrorless cameras, Olympus was at the #1 spot in 2017 with 27.7%, but in the first six months of 2018 Canon is at the #1 spot with 30.1% market share. There is no mention of Sony or Fuji in the BCN+R article.

I could not find any DSLR market share data.

Here is a translated recap from our friends digicame-info (if anyone has a better translation, please post in the comments section):

Update on the Lexar XQD memory cards

By [NR] admin | Published: July 21, 2018


I got the following quote from Lexar’s Director of Global Marketing, Joel Boquiren, regarding the current Lexar XQD memory card situation:

“Due to an unforeseen memory constraint from our XQD technology partners, we’ve had to delay production of the Lexar® Professional 2933x XQD™ 2.0 card until further notice. We are trying our best to minimize the delay as much as possible and are searching for a cost-effective plan for our XQD technology to perform at its best to meet our customer’s’ demand. In addition, we are working tirelessly on the future standard of CFexpress through our efforts in the Compact Flash Association.”

Here is some background information I received from “unofficial channels” (these are basically unconfirmed rumors, so please treat them as such):

The French Army reconnaissance team uses Nikon gear

By [NR] admin | Published: July 21, 2018



“The French Army reconnaissance team uses Nikon gear” is by Paul Grayson:

I was accredited to the Eurosatory 2018 “Land and Airland”, bi-annual, “Defence and Security International” Expo in Paris. On 10 June, I photographed the “Live Demonstrations” of French anti-terror teams: RAID, BRI and GIGN, as well as demonstrations by both the French Army’s ground forces and special forces and by the private, AENEAS, security force.

I thought your readers might like to see that among the now ubiquitous air and ground drones delivering photo/video to the military and police, the French Army reconnaissance team duo still use “traditional” Nikon body and telephoto lens combos.

The D750: A Hiking Companion

By [NR] admin | Published: July 21, 2018


The D750: A Hiking Companion by Ian Hanson (www.thespurtrail.com, Instagram):


There’s nothing like setting goals for yourself and then actually accomplishing them.  For every 100 ideas that I set for myself, I probably truly accomplish zero of them.  That’s why, when I finished hiking the Superior Hiking Trail (if you’re not ready for an AT or PCT adventure, this is a good start) I was almost a bit confused.  I stared out across the final overlook, from Minnesota into Canada, and realized there was no more trail to walk.  I was on the last paragraph of the guidebook and that was it.

My advice for anyone with an itch to hike, is simply this.  Pack as light as you can.

I do not take my own advice.
