The global action camera market size is expected to reach USD 9.6 billion by 2025, expanding at a revenue-based CAGR of 16.7%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. A shift in consumer trends and demand for technologically advanced action cameras is likely to induce the market growth throughout the forecast period. 4K and above in parallel with high definition image resolution have made a huge difference to consumer perception about the camera industry in the recent years.
