2009 U.S. Consumer Photo Scanning Survey

2009 U.S. Consumer Photo Scanning Survey

This IDC study contains results from a top-level study of U.S. digital camera, camera phone, and scanner owners. The survey focuses on key consumer imaging applications, including quantifying how many images and video clips users capture, delete, print, and archive. An analysis of images scanned is brought to light, and trends are identified across survey responses. The data is presented by capture technology where applicable and by total respondents.

"IDC believes that consumers' interest in converting their photo prints to digital will rise as their digital experience expands." - Ron Glaz, program director, Worldwide Digital Imaging Solutions and Services
