As consumers turn more to mobile devices for picture taking, they are realizing the importance of having wireless capabilities to transfer and share those photos. This is good news for the imaging industry, as more and more cameras are coming onto the market with wireless capabilities.
While smartphones fit the bill for instantaneous picture taking, consumers still want a dedicated high-quality image capture device, such as a camera or camcorder, to preserve the best quality images possible, and then to be able to easily share them with friends and family either through social networking, e-mail or printing.—Liz Cutting, Executive Director, Senior Imaging Analyst, The NPD Group, Inc.
