Why Nikon Will Stop Its Camera Body Production in Japan
NIKON – The camera-producing giant company is set to stop its production of camera body in Japan by the end of 2021.
The technology has really come far nowadays. Not only the DSLR cameras can take good photos but as well as the mobile phones – although there are still differences since the former really has photography as its main function.
However, if you will be needing a camera for personal purposes only like taking random photos anytime of the day, capturing some important part of an event, taking a photo of your beloved pet, etc. – a mobile phone would do. You can further enhance the photos with the help of certain app and software now.
These advancements in the field of mobile phone production has undeniably affected the marketing of DSLR cameras and other camera bodies.
When it comes to camera production, one of the most popular is Nikon. With Canon Inc., these two (2) companies made names in the field and people who wants to purchase DSLR cameras most especially for business purposes turn to these brands. However, one of the giants will soon stop its camera body production in one of its plant.\
Based on an article in ABS-CBN News, Nikon will stop the production of its camera body in Japan by the end of 2021. It is due to the effect of the advancement in the photo functions of mobile phones now.
According to the report, Nikon will transfer its production of camera body from its plant in Miyagi Prefecture to its major factory in Thailand. The company assured that the quality of their products can be maintained even if the manufacturing is done overseas.
It was in 1948 when the company launched its first camera. However, there are big challenges when it comes to competing businesses and it has recorded up to 34.4 billion group net loss.
