This study provides a high-level view of image sensor share and penetration in the strongest digital image capture device categories: the consumer point-and-shoot digital camera category, digital camcorder category, and camera phone category. The study provides a worldwide view only and does not cover simple under $100 VGA cameras, scanners, analog camcorders, image-enabled mobile devices, or PC cameras. "Merchant CMOS vendors should focus on the mobile device market," said Chris Chute, research manager, Digital Imaging Solutions and Services, IDC.
