As in the last year, here is yet again the survey by the Japanese BCN, for this year:-

As usual, I summarise the brand share and ranking as below:-

The brand share and ranking of the last year is also included. And as in the last year, Pentax has come last amongst all current "major" DSLR/ILDC brands and makers. Last year they had two models entered the Top 20, this year they have one only. But yet the good thing is that there is still a 0.4% share gain, though.
