Competition Increases as Digital Photo Print Volumes Slow: Snapshot Dye-Thermal Photo Media Forecast, 2006-2013
Lyra Research Inc, May 2010, Pages: 10
Most photo industry professionals have come to accept that the simple snapshot photo print has lost much of its value. Although digital image capture rates are increasing, cost-conscious consumers are printing fewer of these images. In many cases, electronic screens, photo-sharing Web sites, and low-cost digital memory have replaced photo albums and shoe boxes full of prints. The worldwide economic recession also has contributed to the first ever decline (albeit small) in consumer digital photo print volumes.
Despite all of the negative signs, the photo imaging industry is plowing ahead and broadening the ways that homes, retailers, and wholesalers can produce digital prints. The ink jet printer remains the main tool that consumers use to produce snapshot and larger prints at home. Retailers and wholesale printing environments are producing a growing share of photo prints using silver-halide and dye-thermal technologies, and, increasingly, ink jet systems.
This report explores snapshot dye-thermal media shipments and revenue for home photo prints and photo prints made at retail kiosks, minilabs, and photo booths. It compares dye-thermal snapshot media shipments and revenue for home and retail locations. It also discusses the battle for retail dominance between ink jet and dye-thermal photo printing systems.
