That’s also not direct evidence to contradict the anecdotal claim that Canon and Nikon shooters are switching to Sony in large numbers.
1. Sony’s marketshare has dramatically increased over the past five years.
2. Nikon’s marketshare has decreased dramatically over the same period.
3. Canon’s marketshare has also decreased and fluctuated over the same period.
What timer period? Early 1900s?
Aside from an article last autumn stating Canon took almost 25% of full frame mirrorless away from Sony, other stories tend to throw water on the "dramatically" vocabulary.

There is fluctuation in markets the past couple years, but I am not seeing much drama yet in what's been happening. It seems that moderate changes may be what's occurred.
I suppose 22% gain in Japan from full frame mirrorless could be considered "dramatically". Although, a big change isn't a surprise with Canon and Nikon releasing full frame mirrorless. But 1/5 isn't pocket change.
