Smartphones are eating into sales of basic cameras and camcorders in the US, according to market researchers. The NPD Group said the point-and-shoot camera market sold 17% fewer units over the first 11 months of the year compared to the same period in 2010. It said the pocket camcorder market fell by 13% over the same period. Its online survey of adults and teenagers suggested users were also more likely to opt for their phone camera to take footage “on the fly”.
