 CCD in digital cameras & camcorders
CCDs have been successful as well, especially in traditional point-and-shoot digital still cameras, camcorders, and security cameras. However, none of these applications are growing at nearly the rate of camera phones, leaving CCDs behind. In markets for linear image sensors, CCDs have been successful in speed applications such as digital copiers and flatbed scanners, while CIS have been more popular in cost-sensitive applications, including fax machines and multifunction peripherals.
CCD, CMOS & CIS image sensors
This report provides a complete review of the 2004 market for image sensors, as well as annual forecast numbers through 2009. CCD, CMOS and CIS market shares for each application, in both units and revenues, are provided annually for the entire forecast period. Profiles of the world’s leading image sensor suppliers are also presented.
CMOS in web cameras and camera phones
While CMOS has surpassed CCDs, CCDs are not going away. They maintain substantial market share in many camera applications, including mainstream digital still cameras, security cameras, and camcorders. CMOS sensors are having success in other camera markets as well, including low-end digital still cameras and Web cameras. Even with its increasing market share, CMOS revenues will be less than CCD revenues through 2005, due to high CCD volumes and ASPs in markets such as digital still cameras and security cameras.

CMOS and CCD image sensor report : ‘Image Sensors 2005 Report’ provides a review of the 2004 market for image sensors, as Well as Annual Forecast Numbers Through 2009. Research and Markets has announced the addition of Image Sensors 2005: Camera Phones Drive CMOS Past CCDs in 2004 to their offering. The image sensor market has continued to show sharp growth over the past year. CMOS sensors have ridden the camera phone wave to surpass CCDs in 2004. Camera phones shipped well over three times the volume of the next most successful image sensor application, digital still cameras. CMOS sensors have also been successful in low-end digital still cameras and web cameras.
