And which is the bigger market - U.S. or Japan? ;-) Or are Karen's
figures world-wide?

Karen's figures were for Japan.  The numbers in the US
are quite different.

On 2 February of this year, the AP reported that the
running order for digtal camera sales in the US is:

Kodak, 21.9%
Sony, 19.4%
Canon, 16.1%
Olympus, 10.4%
HP, 8.1%
Fuji, 8%
Nikon, 6.2%

Can't find much on DSLR market share, except to
confirm that Canon and Nikon are #1 and #2, with
everyone else far behind, in the US and Europe.
