April 2024 CIPA numbers by ZoetMB
April was another solid month for the industry. Compared to last April (just for that one month), mirrorless units were up 5.2% and lens shipments were up 7.7%. Year-do-date unit and shipped value numbers are up far more.
CIPA has predicted 5.89m ILCs, 1.52m compacts and 9.57m lenses for calendar 2024. Based on 2023 shipping patterns, ILC’s could conceivably come in at 6.7-7.1m units. Lenses might hit 10 million for the first time since 2019.
