The equipment, facilities and trained staff necessary to manufacture 21,000,000 interchangeable lens cameras in 2012 won't have completely evaporated and with 2019 poduction well behind the nearly 11 million ILC's built in 2018, lack of production capacity is quite implausible. Lens production doesn't flucuate as much as camera production, but the trendline is very similar, so the demand exceeding supply argument doesn't hold water for lenses either. New products are being delayed because the downward trend in the industry is scaring Ricoh management from spending new money to produce them.
