Everyone know digital camera sale was dropping, the data show camera production quantity go back to analog era. I think the number will remain constant in next few year, at least before next revolution like analog to digital.(mirrorless not a revolution, for consumer mirrorless just a more advance digital compact that can change lens).
 
seems like the vast majority of pictures taken today are never printed, they are just posted on social media or photosharing sites. Most consumers are happy w/their cellphone shots and the convenience, that's killing low to me point and shoot market, all of it. That leaves the DSLRS, mirrorless etc for "enthusiasts" and professionals.

Personally, I am either cellphone (if I am not doing "serious"lol shooting) or DLSR. I won't settle for less than APC-S since I want the option to sell or print big any shot and shoot in low light.
