Compact cameras are dominating the Japanese camera market once again as, now one of Japan's top retailers reveals its bestsellers for May 2025. The top ten list reflects new digital camera sales at the Map Camera store in Tokyo. Topping last month's list is a familiar favorite: Fujifilm's compact X100VI.
Published by Map Times, this list highlights the ongoing market competition. Just recently, I reported that in contrast to Map Camera's sales, Yodobashi Camera – one of Japan's largest electronic retailers – did not feature a single compact camera in its May 2025 sales rankings. Instead, Sony's A7C II mirrorless full-frame camera dominated, appearing twice in their top list.
