Action Camera Market Size Worth $9.6 Billion By 2025 Owing To A Spike In Interest For Adventure Sports Among People Around The Globe | Grand View Research, Inc.

“Grand View Research, Inc. – Market Research And Consulting.”
The global action camera market is projected to show healthy growth over the coming years, owing to a spike in interest for adventure sports among people around the globe, as well as the growth of social media platforms that have enabled adventure and extreme sports professionals to post their pictures and videos for their audience.

The global action camera market size is projected to reach USD 9.6 billion by 2025, progressing at a revenue-based CAGR of 16.7%, as per a study by Grand View Research, Inc. Action camera, also called ‘action cam’, shoots action from the user’s point of view, while the user is immersed in the action. Action cameras are most often used in outdoor and recreational settings, as well as in extreme sports such as base jumping. Camera features include the ability to capture photos in burst mode and time-lapse, while also allowing high-definition video recording, as well as slow-motion recording (either 120 or 240 frames per second). With consumers steadily moving towards adventure sports and activities as a means to adopt a more active lifestyle, the demand for action cameras has seen an exponential growth. Manufacturers are striving to offer technologically advanced products at competitive prices to penetrate the market.

Features of action cameras such as 4K shooting, in parallel with high-definition image resolution, have drastically shifted consumer perception about the camera industry over the past few years. Display manufacturers are focusing on providing adjustable contrast features for images with effective brightness as a means to capture consumer attention; such innovations are expected to create a competitive growth environment for the market. Additionally, the entry level pricing of the product, coupled with consumer demand for latest technology, are the major driving factors as the industry is progressing in terms of resolution, image quality, and enhanced VR aspects. Demand for 4K resolution in action cameras is accelerating owing to the increased sale of Ultra HD variants in the past few years. With a rise in influencer marketing culture and the explosion of various social media channels on a global level, there is an increasing demand on the consumers’ part to share adventurous activities on these channels with their friends and audience, which is positively impacting the market growth.

The action camera market has been segmented on the basis of resolution, distribution channel, application, and end-use. The major resolutions available in action cameras include ultra-HD, full HD, high-definition, and SD (standard definition). The major channels for the sale of action cameras include online and retail. Application areas for the product include sports and recreational activities, as well as emergency services, among others. The end-use segments include personal and professional, with different ranges of products catering to both sets of end-users. Some of the major industry players developing innovative action cameras include GoPro, Inc.; Sony Corporation; Nikon Corporation; Garmin Ltd.; SJCAM; YI Technology; and SZ DJI Technology Co., Ltd.
