SUMMARY
Despite a decisive shift towards mirrorless cameras, Canon remains a major producer of DSLRs, manufacturing an estimated 580,000 units in 2025. This figure represents almost 90% of the total DSLR production by major manufacturers, significantly outpacing Nikon and Pentax. While Canon has ceased developing new DSLR models, it continues mass production of existing lines like the EOS-1D X Mark III and EOS Rebel T7, indicating sustained market demand. This production level, though down 27% from 2024, highlights that the DSLR market has not entirely disappeared.
