Smartphones are eating into sales of basic cameras and camcorders in the US, BBC reported citing a market research.The NPD Group said in a study that the "point-and-shoot" camera market sold 17 per cent fewer units in the first 11 months of the year compared to the same period in 2010. It said the pocket camcorder market fell by 13 per cent over the same period. An online survey of adults and teenagers suggested users were also more likely to opt for their phone camera to take footage "on the fly".
