CIPA revises camera manufacturing forecasts sharply downwards

[Herb Chong]

CIPA has revised it's yearly production forecasts for digital cameras 
sharply downwards. instead of almost 21% growth in production (and sales) 
this year, it's now expecting just over 8% growth. domestic (Japanese) 
shipments are expected to drop, the first annual drop ever, while all 
overseas markets are going to show markedly slower growth than originally 
forecast.
