    MARKET SEGMENTATION

    Vlogging Camera Market Segmentation

    MARKET DYNAMICS

    The vloggers are mostly influencers, who are always striving to create the best possible content to improve their channel and earnings. A good camera is a must have but it also needs to be lightweight and versatile, to be used in almost all outdoor and indoor applications. Because of this, many vloggers are now substituting their mobile phone cameras with a vlogging camera, this is an ongoing trend and could also be a potential risk to the vlogging camera market.

     

    Future growth of vlogging cameras will also be closely linked to drone camera sales as many vloggers have both.

     

    The average selling price of a mirrorless camera’s body preferred for vlogging is $880 in 2022 and this is ~80% higher than the average DSLR vlogging camera ($380). The market share of mirrorless cameras in global vlogging cameras will increase from 27% in 2022 to 30% in 2027.

     

    The current smartphone cameras have become the biggest competitor for DSLR cameras. 

     

    Qualcomm has planned to develop artificial intelligence (AI) technology that will help smartphones to surpass DSLR cameras completely within the next three to five years.

     

    The second stage includes AI control of the so-called 3A features, namely auto-focus, auto-white balance, and auto-exposure adjustments.

     

    Average Vlogging Camera weight across segments is around 386.9gms in 2022

     

    Back in 2018-19 DSLRs were used for high quality vlogging weighing on an average 675.3gms.

     

    Development of newer models like Sony A7,Nikon Z7 mirrorless cameras weighing around 476gms have gained popularity among vloggers in upcoming years.

     

    VLOGGING CAMERA MARKET SIZE AND FORECAST

    The vlogging camera market size is derived from two set of buyers, 1) who are new to vlogging and buying their first camera with a lower budget and limited features 2) experienced vloggers who understand the nuances of advanced cameras, related tech and the impact it has on their content.

     

    We talked to 14 celebrity vloggers (>1M subscribers) and found that their average cost of camera ranged between $1,300-$1,900. But there are more than 100,000 aspiring vloggers (20k-100k subscribers) who have varying needs, budget and are always on the lookout to upgrade their equipment. Something the vlogging camera manufacturers will have to pay very close attention to.

     

    • The price point is important to vloggers as they shift to serious vlogging after generating traction and will be upgrading their gear. The digital cameras offered in this price range can shoot top quality videos as well as the action cameras. Some of the DSLR models which cost more than $900 in 2020 will also fall into this price range as better cameras are developed
    • Companies will have to market products in this price range exclusively for content creators and offer features that facilitate fast editing as well as uploading to platforms for sharing

     

    Mirrorless and DSLR cameras will have a slower replacement period (~2-2.5 years) compared to action cameras (~1-1.5 years). USA currently has 23% of the global market share (by volume) and this will grow to 15-16% by 2027, USA will remain the biggest market in terms of a single country for Vlogging cameras.

     

    “The global vlogging camera market size is estimated at $XXM in 2020, growing at 8.7% CAGR till 2027”.

     

    COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

    The vlogging camera market is dominated by Asian manufacturers. 6 out of 9 manufacturers profiled in this report belong to Japan and it is because of their long-proven expertise in building all form of cameras over past many decades. Olympus has the highest gross margin among all manufacturers.

     

    The vlogging camera market is highly concentrated with just four players accounting for ~77% market share So far, Sony and Cannon have emerged as the top choice brands by vloggers and they cumulatively account for a substantial market share.

     

    Nikon is willing to expand their base of younger customers by introducing entry-level models that are more affordable while still featuring improvements to video and other functions and by supplying software that supports expression through imaging.

     

    Nikon has planned to increase their revenue and profits down to the increasingly weaker “yen” against the global markets, and the decision to slim down their entry-level cameras and lenses, instead focusing all their marketing and development on cameras and lenses for the higher-end enthusiast and professional markets. 

     

    Sony is actively engaging in acquisitions, joint ventures, capital expenditures and other strategic investments to acquire new technologies. Sony invested in Bilibili Inc. and Epic Games, Inc. (“Epic”), and acquired minority interests in both companies, with the goal of accelerating business expansion in the area of entertainment in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2022.

     

    GoPro’s sales through GoPro.com represent an increasing percentage of revenue and are focused on continuing to accelerate the growth of e-commerce sales. Revenue from GoPro.com represented 33% of revenue in the fourth quarter of 2020.

     

    Canon is accelerating the promoting and marketing sector to boost the sales of the products such as “EOS R5” and “EOS R6” full-frame mirrorless models.
