True enough. I do think though, that they are going to have to turn
themselves into a brand with Leica style cachet appeal to survive.
OTOH, perhaps they can do quite well at present levels of sales,
though I suspect that those numbers will continue to erode. Canon is
just too much of a steamroller right now to not crush the smaller
players that get in the way.
