Can you tell me the difference between Canon and Nikon?

They are all well-known optical instrument manufacturers. They are also the two largest manufacturers of 135mm digital SLR cameras.

Nikon only produces light equipment, cameras, microscopes, etc.

It started producing cameras early. In the traditional camera period, it was undoubtedly 135mm. The leader in the camera industry, he produces and sells a large number of cameras and lenses and has many fans.

But after entering the digital era, Nikon was unable to redesign new standards more suitable for the digital era because a large number of Nikon lenses were still in use. Moreover, it did not pay enough attention to the core technology of digital cameras in the early stage, resulting in current production and sales. Quality lags behind Canon. In particular, the digital development of consumer machines is insufficient, not only lagging behind Canon and even non-professional optical manufacturers such as Sony.

But Nikon still has its own characteristics and style, and its status is still irreplaceable. For many photography masters and photography enthusiasts, Nikon is still their choice.

In addition to producing optical equipment (including cameras), Canon also produces printers, copiers and other office equipment

Although it lags behind Nikon in the field of traditional cameras, after entering the digital age , Canon started early, redesigned the bayonet and other new standards, and vigorously developed digital technology, laying a solid foundation for surpassing Nikon today.

Canon fully masters the three core technologies of modern digital cameras, including lenses, image processing systems, and photosensitive components. So that its development is not controlled by others, and the development is completely in its own hands.

Today, Canon ranks first in the world in terms of sales of consumer digital cameras, and also ranks first in the world of professional cameras. It has the richest product line, a complete range of accessories, especially lenses, and a reasonable and accurate market positioning. He has become the undoubted leader in this field today. Especially in the news and sports photography industry, which is almost the largest market, Canon occupies an absolute dominant position.
