The ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic will negatively impact the underwater camera market size on account of disrupted tourism industry. According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), international tourist arrivals globally is estimated to decline by 20–30% in 2020. This will lead to declining the demand for underwater cameras among travelers. In addition, stringent lockdowns imposed during the first quarter of 2020 that impacted the manufacturing and R&D capabilities of players, limiting the market growth. However, with the gradual reopening of facilities following the relaxations in lockdown rules, the market will regain traction.
