film camera figures for Japan show that over there, film camera sales have dropped over 50% since last year and show every sign of dropping even faster. the fastest drop, as expected, are in P&S cameras. Pentax, the 5th largest in sales, lost over 2% of its film camera market share to just over 7%. that means they sold just about 100K film cameras of all types in Japan last year since total domestic sales by all vendors was just over 1.4M.
