Why can't China enterprises make SLR cameras?

After nearly half a century's accumulation, Japanese manufacturers have reduced R&D and manufacturing costs, but even if China enterprises have the strength to make cameras, many of them are patents. If they don't use their scheme, they can only develop their own patents, and the cost will increase. If you don't use them to develop your own solutions, the cost may be higher. Even if we cut the cost to the extreme, we will end up with 20 thousand top-level cameras, which are very, very good in all aspects. SLR is basically made in Japan. Korean products have just come out and few people buy them. American products do not exist. German products are very good, but the price is surprisingly high, and the price is similar to that of cars. At present, there is no SLR company in China. The production technology of electronic sensors is almost completely controlled by Japanese manufacturers, and no other country can do this.

Although Germany is the best in lens processing technology, the Japanese do the best in industrialization, which is cheaper than its best and better than its cheapest. Financial pressure and talent pressure, the most important thing is that consumers don't understand new brands (we usually buy products from professional companies, especially well-known brands), not because they don't produce, but because they don't have production capacity, and CCD and CMOS of digital SLR cameras can't be produced in China. Relatively few people use digital SLR cameras. Canon and Nikon are mature in digital SLR cameras and have produced dozens of digital SLR cameras. In addition, Sony and Pentax have also joined the production ranks of SLR digital cameras, and the market competition has been quite fierce.

No China enterprise has the technical ability to compete with Canon, Nikon, Sony and Pentax. Sony's SLR digital camera only costs 2000 yuan in China market. Even if a China company can produce digital SLR cameras, it may not be able to sell them. Digital SLR is a precision instrument integrating optics, mechanics and electricity, and its difficulty is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The obvious fact is that there are fewer countries that can make digital SLR cameras than satellites! It has high requirements for electronics, machinery, materials, optics, processing and other technologies and is developing rapidly. Many technologies have been mastered only by Japan. SLR is similar to an engine, and it is a kind of thing with repeated use accuracy! This is China's weakness, just like we can make disposable rockets, missiles and spaceships, but we have never understood how to make engines.
