I might not use the best words at times, but conveniently enough I see the CIPA figures on Thom Hogan's site now. http://www.dslrbodies.com/newsviews/the-...re-in.html
Roughly speaking, DSLRs are still selling 3x more units than mirrorless. What's Canon share of DSLRs? Half if not more? Basically Canon by themselves are shifting more DSLRs than all mirrorless combined. Nice problem to have.
I'm not sure exactly what regions those figures cover. Are they worldwide, or as CIPA is a Japanese organisation, is it Japan sales only?
Of course, that is not to say the situation will remain like that forever. Mirrorless growth has stalled, as has DSLRs. Canon getting more aggressive in mirrorless isn't going to buy them a lot. I think they're still waiting for the right time to make a bigger move.
