On March 11, 2011, the strong earthquake of Richter magnitude 9 occurs in northeast Pacific cost of Japan and caused tsunami and nuclear leakage continuously. These extremely destructive natural disasters are very scary for any country. All these also affect Japanese digital camera industry seriously.

Japan is the major exporter of world's electronic products and chips. Static shows that the current global semiconductor market was 298 billion U.S. dollars, among which Japan accounted for 24%.

In the earthquake area, many companies are subject to different degrees of damage. Sony spokesman Yasuhiro Okada said that the company has shut down six manufacturing plants in northeastern Japan and they are evaluating the impact of large-scale power outages and the destruction of production facilities caused by earthquakes. Affected factory workers have been evacuated. It is reported that the six factories shut down by Sony are mainly to produce Blu-ray discs, magnetic heads, and batteries and other products. It is not clear how much the loss is.

According to foreign media and other information, Matsushita spokesman ...
... Yuichi Takatoku in Tokyo said by telephone that several employees of three factories in disaster area suffered minor injuries. Osaka is assessing the loss of small-scale destruction of buildings and damaged facilities.

Sendai factory of Nikon is reported no injuries and the factory have not been significantly affected. However, it is almost impossible to continue production within 14 days after the earthquake. Nikon Sendai plant is very important production base and it mainly produces high-end Nikon SLR and professional level, such as the D3-series digital SLR cameras and F6 film SLR cameras.

The earthquake is certainly influential on Japanese camera as well as other industries, but because many manufacturers have moved their factories to other areas, such as Nikon also has factories in Thailand, the proportion of factories damaged by earthquake is not great in the world. Some cameras may be affected or delayed production, but it will not affect the entire industry.

Among the video makers, the damage Sony suffered is more serious. As we all know, Sony is the main sensor component supplier of many manufacturers. After the factories are damaged, the delay of production and decline in output will influence the price of other digital camera. But is has not been totally proved now.
