Canon Sales Are Down Year Over Year

By Louis Ferreira | Published: July 24, 2024


Canon sales have been down year over year, but the announcement of the Canon EOS R5 Mark II and to a lesser extent the Canon EOS R1 could turn sales around for Canon.

  • Q1 2024: -31%
  • Q2 2024: -14%

Canon is projecting +1% so maybe sales will rebound in the second half of 2024.
