History of Digital Camera
The History of Digital camera
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 7
Digital cameras differ from traditional cameras in many ways. But
the basic difference is that they use solid state image sensors to convert
light to digital pictures rather than capturing the image on film. Digital
imaging has actually been around for a long period of time, but it has
been used for other purposes..The history of digital technology began
very early. NASA began dealing with digital imaging technology as far
back as the 1960s, just as it did with many inventions that have become
public domain, and NASA used it to convert signals from analogue to
digital. The signals were acquired with space probes and the signals
which were converted to images, mapped the moon's surface.
Development of Digital Cameras
The true digital cameras did not simply emerge as a new consumer
product. There were several other products developed fist, which led to
its creation.
Digital cameras as we know them today first became available for
consumers around the mid 70s. At that time, Kodak developed a number
of solid state image sensors which converted available light into digital
images. The target customers for the new Kodak digital cameras were
both professionals and hobbyists.
Then in 1986, Kodak developed the original mega pixel sensing
unit, with the ability of capturing 1.4 million pixels. Finally, a 5x7-inch
digital high quality print was available to consumers.
How do Digital Cameras Work?
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 8
In the digital world, data, or information, is represented by strings
of 1's and 0's. In this case these digits translate to the individual pixels
or basic units that combine to make up the image you see. When the
capture button on the camera is pressed, a charge coupled device (also
known as a CCD) creates an electron equivalent of the captured light
which in turn ends up converting the pixel value into a digital value.
Each picture is stored in the camera's memory until it is
downloaded to its destination, usually a computer or a CD. Usually, the
form of camera memory is a memory card which can be replaced.
Indeed, this is one of the great advantages over traditional cameras –
you don’t have to buy films.
Important Features to Look for in a Digital Camera
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 9
Resolution is one of the most important features and in many cases
it is one of the top features that determine a camera's price. Resolution is
a measure of detail that a specific camera will capture. The basic unit of
measurement when referring to digital camera resolution is the pixel.
The higher the number of pixels the better the is camera, because a
higher level of detail is captured. This becomes important when you wish
to extend pictures to larger sizes.
Digital cameras are rated in megapixels (millions of pixels). A 1.0
megapixel camera is considered not to be of quality while a 5.0
megapixel camera is often used in professional digital photography
when creating studio grade portraits or taking pictures for a wedding,
for example.
The lens is very important when it comes to digital cameras
because it focuses directly into what you intend to use the digital camera
for. A lens that has a fixed focus and fixed zoom should just be used for
simple snapshots. Zoom lenses come in two forms: the optical zoom lens
and the digital zoom lens. The optical zoom is preferable because it
zooms by changing the actual focal length of the lens whereas the digital
zoom uses an interpolation algorithm to zoom; it “infers” information by
evaluating neighbour information. This results in a grainy photo.
Choosing a digital camera is not easy, but if you have decided
which particular model you need, you will enjoy taking digital pictures
wherever you go to on Vacation, at a family dinner, at a party with
friends, at school, etc.
History of Canon Camera
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 10
Canon is a diversified company, with operations encompassing
image and information processing as well as communication products. It
all started with just one product called 'Kwanon'. The Kwanon was
Japan's first 35mm focal plane shutter camera and featured a lens
named ìKasyapaî. Here is the story about how the Kwanon came to be
developed and how it got its name. The Kwanon was first advertised in
the June 1934 issue of Asahi Camera, which even today remains one of
Japan's top photography magazines.
Japan developed several variants of the 'I' class submarine in the
1920s. The '92-Type' referred to the Japanese Imperial Army's air-
cooled warplane. Both the vessel and plane were trumpeted in Japan as
symbols of the state-of-the-art weaponry. So Canon's advertisement
linked Japan's first 35mm camera with top examples of the nation's
technology prowess. At that time, Japan's camera industry was
outclassed technologically by Germany's world-leading precision
instruments. Japanese manufacturers were only just learning how to
imitate such cameras as the Leica and Contax, so their products
remained relatively primitive. Of course, there was no competition in
terms of price. The Leica was well beyond the reach of the masses. For
example, the starting salary at a bank for a university graduate was 70
Japanese yen per month. The top locally made model, the Pearl spring
camera, cost 49 yen. A D-model Leica with a 50mm f/3.5 lens was priced
at 420 Japanese yen.
his gap prompted Canon to develop inexpensive, high-quality
cameras that would equal the best in the world. To help achieve this
goal, Canon first established a precision engineering research
laboratory. Using the technology available, it was extremely difficult to
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 11
approximate the sophistication and quality of the Leica and Contax.
Intensive efforts using the German cameras as models helped Canon
researchers accumulate valuable ideas that led to the Kwanon as the
nation's first 35mm focal plane camera, equipped with a range finder.
Back in 1934, Canon researchers seemed to see religious significance in
their achievement. Hence, the name 'Kwanon' refers to Canon, the
Buddhist Goddess of Mercy. And the Kasyapa lens is named after
Mahakashapa, a disciple of Buddha and the guru of a religious sect.
The following year, the company decided to highlight its objective
of modern, high-quality cameras by dropping the 'Kwanon' spelling in
favor of 'Canon', which means precision in Latin.
Today, the company boasts an array of proprietary technologies
that have led to many successful products, from the EOS series of
autofocus 35mm SLRs to the compacts. Since the very first Kwanon,
Canon has made more than 90 million cameras for professional and
amateur photographers. The six decades since the release of the Kwanon
have fueled wide diversification into image and information related
fields for Canon now. The diversification was first embodied in the
Kwanon. The wanon is thus the origin of what Canon is today.
History of Sony Camera
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 12
Unlike most digital camera manufacturers, Sony was not a major
player in the film camera market before beginning to make Sony
cameras in digital form. Sony cameras include the company's Cyber-
Shot line of digital cameras, which has become very popular. Sony
cameras ranked second in digital camera units manufactured in 2007,
according to Techno Systems Research's report. Sony manufactured 23.0
million units in 2007, good for a 17.5% market share.
Sony's History
Sony was founded as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo in 1946, which
manufactured telecommunications equipment. The company created a
paper-based magnetic recording tape in 1950, brand named Sony, and
the company became Sony Corporation in 1958.
Sony focused on magnetic recording tape and transistor radios,
tape recorders, and TVs. In 1975, Sony launched its one-half inch
Betamax VCR for consumers, followed by a portable CD player, called
the Discman, in 1984.
The first digital camera from Sony appeared in 1988, the Mavica.
It worked with a TV screen display. Sony did not create another digital
camera until 1996's release of the company's first Cyber-shot model. In
1998, Sony introduced its first digital camera that made use of the
Memory Stick external memory card. Most previous digital cameras had
used internal memory.
Sony's global headquarters are in Tokyo, Japan. Sony Corporation
of America, which was established in 1960, is loaded in New York City.

Factor Affecting Consumer Buying Behavior
2.1.1 Cultural Factors
The cultural factors that influence consumer buying behavior
include the cultural subculture and social class of the buyer.
Culture:
Culture is considered as a set of rules, values, beliefs,
behavior and concepts that is common to and binds together the
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 23
members of a society. It is usually passed on from one generation to
the other. During our lives, there is constant conscious and
unconscious pressure on as to display certain types of behavior.
Perception, wants, and behavior learnt by an individual,
influence his buying behavior. Our culture reflects what we eat,
what we were the cord of conduct, our buying habits, consumption
pattern and the way we use and dispose products. Culture also
determines what is acceptable about product advertising. Thus, an
individual’s buying pattern is largely influenced by the culture. The
diversity of cultures across the world calls for marketing mix to
cater to the needs of those marketing . Ex .some people strongly
believe in their cultural values, beliefs, attitudes etc. so that people
use camera because their attitudes, personality.
Sub Culture:
Every culture has its own set of subculture. A sub culture is a
culture followed by a group of people within a culture that is
distinctly identified within a larger society. There groups have
similar habits, behavior patterns shared value system, buying
behavior on the bases of their age, religion , common experiences
or even geographic location. To tackle the problems created by
subculture differences marketers need to understand the
requirements of the subculture groups and adopt strategies like
altering the product , promotion , packing or price suitable to these
groups. Advertisement strategies of a firm are also affected by the
subculture differences. These groups have their own choice about
brand, variants etc. purchasing decision of these group depends on
their experience as well as age also religious patterns.
Social Class:
Social class refers to the classification of members the society
into a hierarchy of distinct classes so that every individual in a
class has approximately same position in the society. Most
societies in world have different social class structure. Members of
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 24
each social class are free to move in an upward or downward
direction within the social class ,on the basis of their social status.
Social class can be sub divided in two for categories viz.
upper class, upper middle class, and the lower class.
Upper Class:
This class consist of people who are rich and possess
considerable wealth. This class is very important for marketers. Ex.
upper class means that type of people, who are using branded
camera with some special canon, Sony in routine life, while some
people not aware about these flavor.
Upper Middle Class:
This class consists of well- educated people holding top class
position in middle size firms, or professionals who are successful.
They have a strong drive for success and indulge in shopping for
goods that speak of their social status. Ex. They people take a
camera with different brand.
Middle Class:
This class consists of white collar workers like middle level
and junior executives, sales people, academicians, small business
owners, etc. these people lead a conservative lifestyle and spend
moderately. They live in apartments or reasonably smaller houses
and seek to buy product, which give more value of money
Lower class:
This class consists of blue collar workers like factory Labors,
semi skilled and unskilled laborers in the unorganized sectors.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 25
These people are more family oriented and depend on their family
for economic and emotional support. Their families are usually
male dominated. These people are less or poorly educated, live in
smaller houses in less desirable neighborhoods. Due to their law
income levels, these people tend to live in the present and have no
concept of saving.
2.1.2. Social Factors :
Family, friends, formal social group, colleagues at work and
consumer action groups influence the consumers buying behavior
significant. An individual’s family greatly influences the buying patterns
of the individuals. However, this depends on the amount of interaction he
has with his other family members. Subsequently, friends are the next
important social group that influences the buying behavior of the
individual. A friendship group is an informal and unstructured group.
The influences of this group are significant on individual buying
process , because things that are not normally discussed with the family
members are discussed with friend. Suggestion offered by friend on such
aspects influence an individual’s buying behavior. Formal social group
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 26
like lion’s club rotary club and Jaycee’s club do influence the individual
buying behavior. The member in such groups influence the individual
buying behavior. The members in such group influence other members
during informal discussions or by becoming a role model to other
member. The average amount of time and individual spends at his
workplace is around 40house per week . during the working houses, an
individual normally has formal and informal discussions with other
employees and therefore, there exists an ample opportunity for
influencing the buying behavior of the individual. These social groups
influence buyers refrain from buying those good and service that exploit
customer vulnerabilities.
2.1.3. Reference Groups:
An individual’s attitude, value and behavior influenced by different
(small) group. These groups are called reference groups and they have
direct or indirect influence on the individuals buying behaviors of
consumer is largely influenced by the reference group to which they
belong or aspire to belong. Reference group can be of types, vise.
Primary reference group and secondary group.
Primary reference group:
These groups is divided in to for sub groups namely
(1) Membership Reference Groups
(2) Aspiration Membership Group
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 27
(3) Disclaiming Reference Group
(4) Avoidance Group
1) Membership Reference Group:
This is the group to which as person holds members and
has frequent interactions with other members of the group. He
come in regular in informal contact with members of this group
and is directly influenced by them. Ex. In college these types of
groups are more available and their decision will affect the
buying behavior. More discussion on a particular brand will
lead to purchase of best product from the products.
2) Aspiration Reference Group:
This is the group to which the individual does not hold any
membership but desires to belong to that group. He tries to copy
the attitudes and behavior, including buying behavior of the
members of this group.
3) Disclaiming Reference Group:
This is a reference group to which an individuals a
membership but does not wants to belong to and therefore, all
his actions would be opposed to that of the group. He tries not to
be influenced by the attitudes, values and behavior of the
members of this group.
4) Avoidance Groups:
This is the reference group to which an individual does not
hold any membership. He tries to resent the values and beliefs of
such a group.
Secondary Reference Group:
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 28
Secondary groups include religious, professional association
and trade unions with which the interaction of customer is formal
and infrequent. Every reference group has its own set of opinion
leaders are perceived as people with special Skill, knowledge,
personality etc opinion leaders influence the attitudes of other
product/ and then they should target their marketing efforts towards
these role models.
2.1.4 Personal Factor:
There are different personal factors, which affect the buying
decision process. These factors, such as the age, sex, lifecycle stage,
occupation, economic, condition, personality, etc Are unique to every
individual.
Family:
A family is defined as two or more persons related by blood ,
marriage or adoption and reference group but it is prominent in
influencing consumer behavior. Families go through various stages
of life cycle.
Age and Lifecycle Stage :
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 29
Change in the society have led to creation of different
categories like couples marrying late in life, childless couples,
single parents ,etc besides the traditional lifecycle stages which
included young singles , married couples and lone survivors. Over
the lifecycle stages, people use different products and their demand
for goods and services keep changing. People at different ages will
have different tastes in food, clothes, furniture and recreation. Even
families pass though different stages of the lifecycle over time.
There fore marketers should determined the needs of their target
markets and introduce different products and marketing efforts
targeted at different stages.
Occupation and financial status:
Occupation and income level of a person have a major
impact on saving and buying behavior. Manager of the big
companies more prefer parker pen than any other pen. The
financial condition of an individual such as disposable and bear
the interest, etc. will have a significant influence on his buying
behavior.
Life style :
An individual way of leading his life will determine his
lifestyle. Factor such has work life, interests, social group , and
etc. influence lifestyle of an individual.

In world of cut throat competition, companies can survive only
when they outsmart competition; adapt themselves to the changing
marketing environment rather than just pushing the sales .but how do
marketers do this? The answer is simple, yet vary complex –customer
satisfaction.
Satisfaction - fulfillment or gratification of need, desire or appetite.
Customer satisfaction or dissatisfaction is the feeling derived by
the consumer when we compares the product’s actual performance with
the performance that he expects of it .customer from their expectation on
the basis of past buying experience, advice of their reference group and
the promises of the marketers and the competitors. when the product
performance matches the expected performance , the customer
experience satisfaction ; when it falls short of the expectation he
experience dissatisfaction .and when the performance exceed
expectation the customer is highly satisfied or delighted. It becomes
much easier for a company to serve a delighted customer. As delighted
customer may become loyal, bringing more business to the firm, he will
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 33
be less likely to switch to a competitor’s product; and so, he becomes
brand loyal.
Complete customer satisfaction is an achieved by understanding
customer requirement and delivering superior quality goods and
services. Companies must provide the customer with a continuous flow
of new ideas/offers and constantly enhance their service level to build up
satisfaction among customers understanding the customer and providing
satisfaction is not prerogative of the marketing department alone. Every
function/employee needs to contribute to understanding the customer
needs and then fulfilling them.
Organizations need to map Customers needs and wants with their
product .if the product does not fulfill customer need and wants
organizations need to take the initiative to improve their product.
Customer should be an integral part of the product development and
improvement process .As customer need and want do not remain
constant ,organization also need to monitor the trends in the changes on
the customers need and want continuously so that they can modify their
product and services continuously to satisfy their customers in the long
run .
To know whether customers are satisfied with his products and
services, a marketer need to measure the customer satisfaction can be
measured using different techniques like questionnaires and direct
interviews. A customer feedback Programme should be viewed as an
operating tool rather than as market research. Marketers should
understand that no three customers share the same opinion when they
use words like satisfaction-i.e. the intensity of satisfaction. They should
try to keep the survey sample, and employ the right questions that can
give timely data that is easy to act upon. Most customer satisfaction
surveys are not very useful, as they tend to be long and complicated.
They yield low response rates and ambiguous information for the
operating manager and salesperson may try to be customer friendly just
before the survey, while others indulge in post – sale pleading with
customers to provide top ratings, with the promise of offering something
in return, for ex.- bargaining and negotiating a low price, with the
consent of dealers. And the salespersons and managers may include only
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 34
satisfied or most satisfied customers in the survey. Sometime the
customers might rate the company’s performance as not so satisfactory
to get more mileage also do not take it seriously. These circumstances
further raise suspicion regarding the integrity of the surveys.
Increasing Value of Customer Base
A key driver of share holder value is the aggregate value of the
customer base winning company`s improving the value of their customer
base by excelling at strategies such as the following:
Reducing the Rate of Customer Defection :-
Selecting and training employer to be knowledgeable and
friendly increases the likelihood that the inevitable shopping
question from the customer will be answered satisfactorily.
Increasing the Longevity of the Customer Relationship :-
The more involved a customer with a company the more
likely we are to stick around. Some companies treat their customer
as partner’s especially business to business markets-soliciting their
help in the design of new product or improving their customer
service.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 35
Enhancing the Growth Potential of Each Customer Through
Cross-Selling and Up- Selling :-
New offering and opportunities increase sells from existing
Customers .E.g. sometimes canon and Sony camera’s company
provide free service like guaranty and warranty.
Cross-Selling
Such can be the impact of a targeted cross- selling
campaign. Bundling items together can be an effective way to
cross-sell, with data mining procedures determining which
items to bundle.
The items to include in cross- selling initiatives are
determined by customer habits on the one hand and clever
“bundle ‘’ compositions on the other. Clever, creative and
ground- breaking super-bundles are the basis for the new
“lifestyle’’
Up-Selling
Mass marketing has given way to target marketing; this
in turn has given way to one-on-one or conversational
marketing. Most companies engage customers in dialogue
during the acquisition or selling stage and when handling a
problem or a complaint. Conversations are also held with
former customer during win back or regain management .up-
selling is different than cross-selling and to be most effective
should be introduced after the relationship has progressed
through the acquaintanceship and trust stages and entered
the commitment stage.

Making Low-Profit Customer More Profitable or Terminating
Them
To avoid the direct need for termination , marketers can
encourage unprofitable customers to buy more or in large
quantities ,forgo certain features or service , or pay higher
amounts or fees .e.g. sometimes digital camera provide benefit to
that types customer who like to purchase camera in bulk give
discount on the purchase.
Focusing disproportionate effort on high-value customer
E.g. Sony and Canon Company provide free gift at time of
festival like diwali, new years.
Delivering High Customer Value
Consumers have varying degree of loyalty to specific brand, stores,
and companies.
The value proposition consists of the whole cluster of benefits the
company promises to deliver; it is more than the core positioning of the
offering. E.g. digital camera core positioning has been features but the
buyer is promised more than just features ; other benefits includes a
various model , reasonable price. The value proposition is a statement
about the experience customers will gain from the company’s market
offering and from their relationship with the suppliers. The brand must
represent promises about the total experience a customer can expect.
Whether the promise is kept depend on company’s ability to manage its
value delivery system. The value delivery system includes all the
experiences the customer will have on the way to obtaining and using the
offering. At the heart of good value delivery system. The value delivery
system includes all the experience the customer will have on the way to
obtaining and using the offering .At the heart of good value delivery
system is a set of core business processes
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 37
That helps to deliver distinctive consumer value.
Customer Value Analysis
Customer value analysis is being done to reveal the company’s
strengths and weakness relatives to those of various competitors .The
step in this analysis are as follows:
Identify the major attributes and benefits that customer value:
Customer are asked what attributes, benefits, and
performance levels they look for in choosing a product and
vendors.
Asses the quantitative importance of the different attributes
and benefits:-
Customers are asked to rate the importance of the attributes
and benefits. If their rating diverges too much, the marketer should
cluster them into different segments.
Assess the companies and competitors performance on the
different customer’s value against their rated importance:-
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 38
Customers describe where they see the company’s and
competitor’s performances on each attributes and benefits.
Examine how customers in a specific segment rate the
company’s performance against a specific major competitor on
an individual attributes or benefits basis:-
If the company’s offer exceeds the competitors offer on all
importantent attributes and benefits, the company can charge the
same price and gain more market share.
Monitor customer values overtime-
The company must periodically redo its studies of customer
values and competitors standing as the economy, technology, and
future changes.
Monitoring Satisfaction
Many companies are systematically measuring how well they treat
their customers, identifying the factors shaping satisfaction, and making
changes in their operations and marketing as a result.
A company would be wise to measure customer satisfaction
regularly because one key to customer retention is customer satisfaction
.A highly satisfied customer generally stays loyal longer , buys more as
the company introduce new product and upgrades existing products ,
talks favorably to others about the company and its products , pays less
attention to competing brands and is less sensitive to price offer product
or service ideas to the company and cost less to serve than new customer
because transactions can become routine .greater customer satisfaction
has also been linked to higher returns and lower risks in the stock
market.
The link between customer satisfaction and customer loyalty,
however, is not proportion. Suppose customer satisfaction is rated on a
scale from 1 to 5. At a very low level or customer satisfaction, customer
are likely to abandoned the company and even bad-mouth it. At level two
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 39
to four, customer is fairly satisfied but still fined it easy to switch when a
batter offer comes along. At level five, the customer is very likely to
repurchase and even spread good word of month about the company.
High satisfaction or delight creates an emotional bound with the brand
or company, not just a rational preference.
When customers rate their satisfaction with an element of the
company’s performance say, delivery – the company needs to recognize
that customers very in hoe they define good performance . good delivery
could mean early delivery, on –time delivery , order completeness and so
on. One may be easily satisfied most of the time and the other might be
hard to please but was pleased on this occasion.
Influence of Customer Satisfaction
For customer centered companies, customer satisfactions both a
goal and a marketing tool. Companies need to be especially concerned
today with their customer satisfaction level because the internet provides
a tool for consumers to quickly spread bad word of mouth as well as
good word of mouth to the rest of the world. Some customers even set up
their own websites to air their grievances and dissatisfaction, targeting
high- profile brands such digital camera Sony canon. Describing events
and actions as being wrong by the company, those websites often attempt
to galvanize consumer discontent and protest.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 40
Total Customer Satisfaction
Whether the buyer is satisfied after purchase depends on the offer’s
performance in relationship to the buyer’s expectation, and whether the
buyer interprets and deviations between the two in general satisfaction is
a person’s feeling of pleasure or disappointment that result from
comparing a product’s perceived performance to their expectations. If
the performance matches the expectations, the customer is highly
satisfied or delighted. Customer assessments of products performance
depend on many factors, especially the type of loyalty relationship the
customer has with the brand.
Although the customer –centered firm seeks to create high
customer satisfaction, that is not its ultimate goal. If the company
increases customer satisfaction by lowering its ultimate goal. If the
company increases customer satisfaction by lowering its price or
increasing its services, the result may be lower profits. The company
might be able to increase its profitability by means other than increase
satisfaction (e.g. By improving manufacturing processes or investing
more in R&D7) also the company has many stakeholders, including
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 41
employees, dealers, suppliers and stockholders. Spending more to
increase customer’s satisfaction might divert funds from increasing the
satisfaction of other “partners”. Ultimately level of customer
satisfaction subject to delivering acceptable levels of satisfaction to the
other stakeholders, given its total resources.
How do buyers from their expectations?
Expectations result from past buying experience ; friends and
associates advice ; and marketers and competitor’s information
and promises .If marketers raise expectation too high , the buyer is
likely to be disappointed .however , if the company sets
expectations too low ,it won’t attract enough buyers ( although it
will satisfy those who do buy ). Some of today’s most successful
companies are raising expectation and delivering performance.

P’s Marketing
The whole marketing concept depends upon the four major factors,
which is called four P’s Marketing, which falls under the heading of
marketing mix. The recent exponential growth in broadcasting
alternatives means that marketing has become priority. Organization
must learn how to market themselves with greater success, despite
opposition from their competitors. Theoretically, each of the product,
price, place and promotion variables can be controlled by organization
and at the same time. Taken together the constitute the marketing mix.
An organization must come up with a mix that will clearly differentiate
its product from those of its competitors, while simultaneously
considering the corporate goals. In our case “Canon” and “Sony digital
camera” these two have marketing mix strategy.
Many people have already heard about the “4p’s of marketing”.
Generally speaking, the so-called “marketing mix” is a framework that
acts as a guideline for marketers to implement a marketing concept. It
consist of a set of major decision are as that a company needs to manage
in order to at least satisfy consumer needs.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 44
Product
The first element of the 4 P’s of marketing is product. It focuses on
the individual goods and the product line. At heart of great grand is
great product. Product is a key element in the market offering. One of
the definitions of product is as under.
“Anything can be offered to a market for attention, acquisition, use
or consumption that might satisfy a want or need is called as product. It
includes physical objects, services, persons, places, organization and
ideas.”
A product is not only a tangible offering, but it can more than that.
A product is anything that can be offered to market to satisfy a want or
need. Products that are marketed are including physical goods, services,
experience, events, persons, places, properties, organization,
information and ideas.
4.1.1 Product Levels:
There are five different product levels, each of which represents a
customer value hierarchy. These product levels are described as below.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 45
Core Benefit:
The most fundamental level is the core benefit, the
fundamental service or benefit that the customer is really buying.
Basic Products:
At this level, the marketer has to convert the core benefit into
the basic product. Because his major emphasis is to satisfy basic
need of customer. The basic product introduced, to satisfy the core
benefit of using the “digital camera”.
Expected Product:
The marketer prepares an expected product, a set of attribute
and conditions buyer normally expect when they purchase this
product. The consumers while buying the products expect to get
different type of experience of with affordability.
Augmented Level:
The marketer prepares and augmented product that exceeds
customer’s expectations. Product augmentation leads the marketer
to look at the user’s total consumption system.
According to Leavitt: - The new competition is not between
what companies produce, but between that they add to their
products in term of services, advertising, customers advice and
other things that people value.
Potential Product:
At the fifth level stands the potential product, which
encompasses all the possible augmentation and transformation the
product or offering might undergo in the future. Here is where
companies search for new way to satisfy customers and distinguish
their offer.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 46
Successful companies add benefits to their offering that only
satisfy customers but also surprises and delight them. Delighting
customers is a matter of exceeding expectations.
Product Category:
Product Line:
A product line is a group of products within a product class
that are closely related because they perform similar kind of
function, are sold to the same customer groups, are marketed
through the same outlets or channels, or fall within given price
ranges. In our case canon and Sony digital camera are the product
line
Product Type:
A product type refers to a group of items within a product
line that share one of several possible forms of the product. The
product type of canon and Sony digital camera have different

Item:
It is also called stock keeping unit or product variant. A
distinct unit within a brand or product line distinguishable by size
,price, appearance , or some other attribute is an item like
memory card , camera cover , etc are the various item of the canon
and Sony.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 47
Product Mix:
A product mix is also called a product assortment. It is a set of all
products and items a particular seller offer for sale. A company `s
product mix has a certain width, length, depth and consistency.
Product Width:

Price
Form the point of view of manufacturer only, price represents the
quality of money received by the firm of seller. Price is the Most
important factor of marketing mix, Which given absolute percentage
about the purchase and sales.
Price is the one element of the marketing mix that produces
revenue, the other elements produce costs. Price is one easiest
marketing mix element to adjust product features channels and event
promotion. Price also communicates with the market by Which medium
company can show their intention to wards value positioning of its
product or brand.
Traditionally speaking price has operated as the major
determinant or the major influencing factor of the buyer’s choice. Even
this behavior prevails not only in the underdeveloped or the developing
countries but also in the developed countries, so more of lesser price
does matter for any buyer irrespective of the income level or the
demographic factors.
In the order to arrive at the most acceptable price level, the
marketer needs to have information on C’s.
Customer:

to pay etc.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 49

competitor’s price. The poor competitor’s price. The willing company
leads their competitor’s price.

element of marketing. Place includes “all the

distributed and sold. Whether to sell it directly, through a broker, or a
distributor? Whether to run retail store or through the internet or

Canon v/s Sony
Canon XF 305 Versus Sony PMW 200 and JVC GY-HM650 Comparison
People are always asking me what camera they should buy for
broadcast, small camera, self-shooting. Should it be a DSLR? And if not
what exactly should it be?
First off, let's deal with the DSLR issue. I see countless young
self-shooters and video journalists putting themselves on the market,
armed with a Canon or Panasonic DSLR, a couple of lenses and a
Maplins lapel mic. And quite often, they turn out fantastic shots.
But self-shooting is tough enough without a sound or lighting
guy helping out. Make the step up to Video Journalism and you need real
editorial savvy and experience. (And for this criteria, it's a desert out
there). Then throw into the mix the added skill of operating a DSLR to
shoot video whilst 'run and gun' ob-doc shooting and then your looking
at the kind of scarcity more associated with the search for life on other
planets. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it's a tough shout. If you
have an editorially experienced, video journalist, running and gunning
with a DSLR on your books, get them tied down on a bullet-proof, ten
year contract!
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 54
Me, shooting with my 5D mk2 and my mad old rig.
On my 5d I can only run and gun with any degree of competence
with just one lens (16-35mm f2.8). So for me, unless I have the time to do
some stylish shoot, over which I have some level of control, I'll always
pick a camcorder over a DSLR.
So which one? Well if size isn't an issue, but I'm still looking for
a small, broadcast spec (50Mbs 4:2:2) camera ( as opposed to a larger
shoulder cam), then, for me, there's only two real competitors on the
market; the Canon XF 305 and the Sony PMW 200. (The JVC HM650
only pumps out 35Mbs and 4:2:0)
Now if you want to compare technical specs etc and blah, geek-
blah, there's plenty of be-bearded types out there writing about this. I'm
more interested in the real world stuff, what's it's actually like to use and
the day by day quality of the shots.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 55
Having used the 305 and 200 extensively now, the 305 beats
the 200 in terms of use-ability. For run and gun shooting this camera is
a joy to use ( as long as you're not struggling for light). I worked with an
engineer at the BBC that claimed his department had a real input into
the design and layout of this camera, and whilst I'm not entirely sure of
how true this is, it could well believe it, because everything falls to hand
and ergonomically it's really been thought through. As an evolution of
the PD150, Z1 with a bit of EX1 thrown into the mix, this camera makes
perfect sense.
Which is strange really because that is exactly what the Sony
PMW 200 is a direct evolution of the PD 150, Z1, Z5 and EX1.
The truth is that the layout of the buttons on the XF 305 makes
more sense. It's bigger body means they are less cluttered. If you're
struggling to find a button, just stop for a moment, think where you
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 56
would put it if you we're designing a camera, and that's where it'll be.
The 305 has a wide array of self-assign buttons, scattered around the
body of the camera. The Sony has self-assign buttons too, but not as
many and not, seemingly, giving access to such a wide range of useful
facilities as the Canon.
I think the Canon has a nicer piece of glass glued to the front.
Certainly it's more usable, with an 18 times zoom and a macro of 20mm.
The Sony by comparison has only a 14 times zoom and wont go quite so
wide. But one plus for the Sony is that the iris doesn't ramp when
zooming like on the Canon.
The Canon seems to have a better screen than the Sony, which
seems to have inherited a slightly ( and only slightly) better version than
the one that stops the Z5 being the kick arse camera it should be.
However, both the Canon and the Sony screens are the same resolution,
and whilst the Canon screen seems more flexible (flipping under the
handle to pop out either side) it also, apparently hinders the attachment
of some third party kit - matte boxes, etc.
The Canon allows you to quickly and easily dial in a manual
white balance setting, something Z1, Z5 and DSLR users take for
granted. The Sony will allow you to do this, but only by accessing a sub-
setting in a sub-setting in the picture profile option. Which effectively
means you can't. This is something I miss the most when shooting with a
200.
The Canon has an incredible three position image stabiliser.
It's unique design gives amazing results, especially in powered mode and
this alone makes it a great self-shooting, video journalism camera.
The Sony, by comparison is a much less user friendly camera.
Side by side, it's also smaller, looking slightly 'toy like' next to the
Canon. Turn up with a Canon to the shoot and it looks like a proper
piece of kit. The Sony, when you pull it out of the bag, looks a bit of an
anti-climax. Another issue you may feel you have when you shoot with a
PMW200 is that some people (clients) mistake it for a Z1 - not
necessarily the image you may be trying to communicate!
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 57
Another bonus for the 305 is that the BBC use them, and use
them extensively, having turned their backs on Sony a while back. I've
seen job ads that specifically ask for 305 camera experience. I've yet to
see one that specifies the PMW 200.
The 305 also has a 'tricky-dicky' face recognition system that
locks the focus and tracks people as they move around. It sounds cool,
and it is cool, but the reality is this system isn't bullet proof. If the person
puts a hand over their face or turns away the auto-focus function will
snap the focus to the back ground, or at best go hunting. For this very
reason, the Sony has no such gimmick.
The Sony PMW 200 doesn't seem to have the same simple -
'common sense' approach to it that the 305 has. But if you can get
beyond all of the above the 200 is worth some serious consideration.
On the surface of it, the 305 uses cheaper media cards than
the Sony. A 32Gb extreme card costing about £70. A 32Gb SxS card for
the Sony costs around £300! But the Sony will also record onto 32Gb
XQD card, costing around £170, or if you drop down to 35Mbs you can
use much cheaper SD cards (32Gb for £25).
Being smaller makes it more portable. A large petrol back-
pack will take a PMW 200, mac laptop, 3 (160 element) led lights with
zipshot tripods, gun mic, radio mic, headphones and batteries. You'd
struggle to match that with a 305.
They say the heart of a car is it's engine and that it defines
everything about the car. Equally, the heart of a camera is it's sensor
and this does define everything about the camera. The Canon 305 has
three third-inch sensors. The Sony has three half-inch sensors. However
you try to dress this up, three half-inch sensors will always give a better
picture quality, more control over depth of field and better low light
performance than smaller chips.
Canon & Sony
BPCBA/2010-13/SEM-VI/GROUP NO:22 58
The 305 is a camera you can just switch on and start shooting
some kick-arse stuff with straight away. The 200 will, I believe, give
nicer pictures but you earn them, they don't come so easily. But once you
master your 200, get all the settings and profiles just where you want
them, adjust to that screen, the 200 will take you further and I suspect to
a higher level.
Bottom line, when I had to put my own hard cash on the table,
I bought a 200.
