Down with the Shutters

The Economist has a piece on the digital camera market:

"In little more than a decade, sales of digital cameras have soared; they have now almost completely replaced film cameras. But now even the digital camera business is maturing. After growing by 670% in 2000-05, unit sales of digital cameras are slowing. Worldwide sales are expected to rise to just over 100m a year by 2009, an increase of only 26% (see chart). At the same time, prices are tumbling. Digital cameras have rapidly become a “mature” consumer product."
