Originally posted by Kunzite No, the problem here is that you made up some low number which can't be considered even an educated guess. You're not even trying to figure out how much of the planned ~1750 units/week production was sold on the Japanese market.
Not that BCN Ranking covers the entire Japanese market. It doesn't, and it's not even using statistical sampling methods.
So when bcn say's that Ricoh had a 6,7% (if I recall this good) marketshare in dslr last year, we believe them and now it's just a Number. Being #73 means a marketshare at or under 1%, so that is very low. It's just last week. Maybe production is low due to the earthquake giving not many sensors to make camera's with. Maybe just some more export, but I don't see them coming overhere. My "made up" number is a very educated guess. It can be different if most sales are with stores not connected to bcn, but then it is strange that it wasn't last year so. If it makes you sleep better, Nikon D610 and Nikon D750 body's sold less then K-1.
