Nikon produced cameras in 1948, leading the development of the industry together with Canon. Smart phones are equipped with multiple cameras to take high-quality photos, and people no longer need to carry cameras with them, which makes the camera market into a downturn. Nikon also plans to close two factories in Yamagata and Fukushima prefectures that are engaged in the processing of replacement lens parts for digital cameras. At present, the Sendai Nikon factory of Japan’s affiliated company only produces the top model D6 for professionals.
Previously, Nikon had three camera production bases located in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan, Thailand, and China. However, with the popularity of smartphones, camera sales have been severely impacted. Nikon’s production base in Wuxi, Jiangsu has been closed in 2017. Now, after the shutdown of the camera production base in Sendai City, all Nikon camera production lines will be transferred to Thailand .

Nikon was founded in 1917. As a “century-year-old company”, Nikon has always been a representative company of “Made in Japan” and has been high hopes since its inception. Relying on its own technical experience in the optical field, from the beginning of imitating the German brand, it gradually moved towards completely self-developed and self-made, and even grew into a world-class camera giant through a series of innovations, and jointly monopolized the global high-end camera market with Canon and Zeiss. Nikon is one of the representative companies of precision and optical technology. Its business areas include four major business areas: healthcare, precision equipment, imaging products, and industrial metrology. In recent years, as the performance of smart phone cameras has improved, the digital camera market has shrunk significantly. According to the Japanese Camera and Imaging Machinery Industry Association, the output of cameras in 2020 is about 8.74 million units, which is about a quarter of that in 2015. According to the Nikkei News, Nikon accounts for nearly 30% of the Chinese camera market, but the entire camera market is shrinking. Under the influence of changes in the external market, the demand for small digital cameras in particular is declining. As mobile phone camera functions become more and more powerful, the demand for digital cameras continues to shrink, and its sales continue to decline after reaching its peak in 2010. CIPA data shows that in 2010, the sales volume of digital cameras exceeded 121 million units, and by 2020, the annual sales volume will only be 8.88 million units, which is not only a 41.6% decrease from the same period last year, but also a 92.7% decrease from 2010 sales, which is less than 1/10 of the peak. . In the update iteration of mobile phones, mobile phone cameras have become better than before. Nowadays, people can take 100 million pixel photos, their sharpness and image quality are very high. Not only that, the camera software can also automatically generate HDR images, and has portrait and night modes, which can mimic the effects of professional cameras. The camera industry is getting sluggish day by day, but many camera manufacturers choose to rise to the challenge and enter the mobile phone market directly. For example, Kodak produced its own camera phone in 2016. Leica, a German camera brand with a history of more than 120 years, chose to partner with Huawei as early as 2016. It is not difficult to see that the old brands in the camera industry are also changing their previous product models. In the future, the conventional size of smartphones may change to accommodate larger sensors, and they may even install different lenses. Today, with the rapid development of technology, mobile phone photography has become very convenient, and mobile phone pixels have been officially promoted from the “10 million” level to the “100 million” level, which is comparable to professional cameras. Today, the space left for digital cameras is getting smaller and smaller. It is often not your peers who defeat you, but the crossover!

1. Ground meat Instead of wasting time chopping, many women after work often stop by the market to buy some pre-ground meat to process quickly and conveniently. Everyone thinks that the ground meat outside the store looks so red and fresh, how can it be silly. But in fact, that’s just the real feeling, you don’t know what they include in it. Maybe it’s made from a lot of shredded meat, fat, part of the animal, even rotten or rancid meat… that you can’t predict. So to be sure, the sisters do not want to buy cheap ground meat from the market, lest it harm the whole family. 2. Pig’s heart If you ask 10 people, 8 people will love old pig’s intestines because of the delicious taste. However, the old intestine of pigs is where the animals defecate, so they are often infected with many bacteria. If not properly cleaned, they will affect human digestion when eaten. In restaurants, due to limited time, this part is not carefully processed. They “shortcut” by using some deodorant chemicals, all kinds of spices to cover the smell. So, if you like to eat this dish, you should buy it and cook it yourself, but it’s bad luck in the store. 3. Duck head People quizzes who can ignore this duck head dish. The duck head is fragrant, the brain is sweet, crispy and soft to eat. However, ducks are animals that like to eat dirt and eat food on the ground, so their heads accumulate a lot of heavy metals, even filled with worms. So if you do not know how to prepare, the duck head is very dirty. Like an old pig’s heart, the time in the queue is limited, so the preliminary processing is often omitted, so no one can guarantee that the duck head is both delicious and clean “offering” for you to enjoy. So if you are still passionate, you should buy it yourself and prepare it for safety. 4. Ready-made braised meat, spring rolls or spring rolls Many women are too busy or simply … lazy, so they often buy braised meat, spring rolls or rolls available from the store to enjoy. The delicious meat taste, rich color, soft melt in the mouth makes so many people fascinated, but there are many potential risks of harm. Because they can be made from bad meat, stored for too long in the refrigerator, rancid and then processed by the seller, using additives to eliminate odors. So if you eat it, you will only harm your body, not gain any fat.

Noticing that the small CUV segment is “heating up” in the Vietnamese market in recent years, Mazda Vietnam (Thaco) has decided to add 2 brand new CUV models in the Vietnamese market, positioned under the Mazda CX-5 series. Instead of assembly, the Mazda CX-30 and CX-3 will be imported directly from Thailand similar to the BT-50 and Mazda2 pickups.

In terms of positioning, the new generation Mazda CX-3 will position lower than the CX-5, while the CX-30 is located between these two models. Mazda CX-30 “born later” than the CX-3, the new Mazda CX-30 uses the same chassis platform SkyActiv-Vehicle Architecture shared with the new generation Mazda3 “brother”.

Mazda CX-30 is a member of the CX-Series family, the car uses the Kodo design language with many similarities to the CX-3/5/8. The front of the car features a large grille cluster and a strong chrome bar underneath connecting the LED headlight cluster. The arrival of the all-new Mazda CX-30 has opened up more options for customers back home in Japan. With that said, the Mazda CX-30 is the product that fills the gap between the CX-3 and CX-5 when it carries dimensions: Length x Width x Height: 4,395 x 1,795 x 1,540 mm, and base length: 2,655 mm.

Mazda said it has arranged interior space and CX-30 seats, in order to provide a comfortable sitting position for customers. The front row has large armchairs, the rear seats have a longer distance from the front seats, the height of the seat position and the floor height are adjusted to ensure a spacious space. The capacity of the rear luggage compartment reaches 430 liters, the open width of 1,020mm may not contain large baby strollers and travel bags at the same time.

In Thailand, the CX-30 uses a 2.0L SkyActiv-G 4cyl engine for a maximum power of 162 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 213 Nm at 4,000 rpm combined with a 6-speed automatic gearbox (6 AT) and front-field drive (FWD). Similar to the Mazda3, the CX-30 uses a McPherson-style suspension in the front and a torsion beam rear suspension.

Because of the development of the same chassis, the CX-30 shares quite a lot with the new generation Mazda3 “brother”. Therefore, the CX-30 interior has a similar design to the Mazda3 hatchback. Brown leather seats + 10-way electric driver’s seats while the customer seats adjust their hands. The Mazda CX-30 is equipped with an 8.8-inch info entertainment screen that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity.

Mazda CX-3 is undoubtedly a familiar model with many doctors interested in Mazda cars, in 2017 there were CX-3 models brought home, but used for personnel at the company and not sold to the market. Until now, after 5 years, Mazda CX-3 has plans to sell in Vietnam market.

In Thailand, the Mazda CX-3 uses a 2.0-liter Skyactiv-G (I4) in-line 4-cylinder engine but has been refined to give a maximum power of 148 horsepower and a maximum torque of 201Nm. Higher than the 146 horsepower and maximum torque of 198 Nm in the 2017 version. Power is transmitted down the front bridge (FWD), via a 6-level automatic transmission (6AT).

Mazda said the engine has been tweaked to make the torque higher and more fuel efficient. Equipped with G-Vectoring Control (GVC) technology that helps control G-force by interfering and changing the torque from the engine to each wheel to help the car more stable when entering the corner. Besides, the suspension is also improved.

In Thailand, Mazda CX-30 has a starting price of VND 1,099,000 – 1,199,000Bath (about VND 805 – 877 million). While cx-3 is priced from 769,000,000 – 959,000,000 (about 563 – 703 million DONG). As expected, the Mazda CX-3 will cost no less than VND 550 million, while the CX-30 will cost no less than VND 700 million in the Vietnamese market.

Currently, the CUV segment of Grade B and Grade C is increasingly popular in the Vietnamese market because of its versatile. The small CUV segment quickly became a trend of buying cars of many customers, which caused automakers to focus on these product lines.

Regarding Mazda, currently its smallest CUV is the CX-5 and Mazda Vietnam is missing a model located in the lower segment of the CX-5 to meet the demand from the market.

Once sold, the Mazda CX-30 will compete with the Toyota Corolla Cross, while the CX-3 competes with the Kia Seltos, Hyundai Kona or Ford EcoSport. Even in the near future, Mazda Vietnam can assemble CX-3 and CX-30 models in the country if these two models attract customers.
