Arlington, Va. – Digital imaging hardware and software will
receive a major focus during the 2010 International CES, which will return to
Las Vegas Jan. 7-10.
Produced by the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), CES will
provide a Digital Imaging Showcase that will feature more than 37,000 square
feet of exhibit space, with more than 60 exhibitors in South Hall 3 of the Las Vegas Convention Center. The exhibit area will
feature all aspects of the imaging product category, including cameras and
capture devices, storage, software, printers, kiosks, bags and accessories, CEA
said.
“Digital imaging connects consumers and their memories across
multiple product categories,” said Karen Chupka, events and conferences senior
VP, CEA. “With consumers looking to improve the quality of their digital
libraries, the Digital Imaging Showcase at this year’s CES will be bigger than
ever before, as innovative companies exhibit their latest products.”
Digital imaging – and high-quality digital cameras in particular
– remain a central focus for consumers, as household penetration of digital
cameras reaches nearly 80 percent and shipments of digital cameras featuring
more than 10 megapixels are projected to increase by 237 percent in 2009.
Shipments of digital cameras will generate $6 billion in sales in 2009, with more
than 30.5 million units sold, according to CEA.
Top imaging companies will be featured at the 2010 CES, such as
ATP, Kodak, Iomega, Tiffen, Wacom and Wynit. Other major imaging companies
exhibiting at the 2010 CES include Canon, Casio, Fuji, JVC, Lowepro, Nikon,
Olympus, Panasonic, Samsung and Sony.
