Canon celebrates National Camera Day with workshop

As National Camera Day approaches on June 29, Canon Malaysia is gearing up to celebrate this special occasion in style.

In line with their commitment to promoting visual storytelling and creativity, Canon organized a unique content creation workshop at Utama Farm, a sustainable urban farm located in Petaling Jaya.

The workshop, titled “Farm to Table,” not only focused on honing content creation skills but also provided participants with an immersive experience of eco-conscious farming practices.

Farm to Table: Exploring content creation and sustainable farming

The ‘Farm to Table’ workshop offered attendees an opportunity to test the capabilities of Canon’s highly sought-after cameras, including the Canon PowerShot V10, EOS R8, and EOS R50.

The picturesque outdoor setting of Utama Farm provided the perfect backdrop for capturing memorable moments, such as fishing and prawning.

By combining the joys of content creation with the wonders of sustainable farming, Canon aimed to inspire participants to create engaging visual narratives that resonate with modern audiences.

Creative insights and Canon camera capabilities

Recognizing the growing demand for authentic and captivating content, Canon understands the importance of capturing real-life scenarios to tell impactful stories.

The workshop not only emphasized the creative aspects of content creation but also delved into the technical capabilities of Canon’s cameras.

Participants had the chance to experiment with the innovative features of the PowerShot V10, a compact vlogging camera that offers convenience and professional-quality video capabilities.

Its lightweight design, built-in kickstand, and image stabilization features empower creators to capture exceptional videos from unique perspectives.

Participants had the opportunity to experience the seamless transition from capturing photos to printing them using Canon’s photo printers, such as PIXMA G670 & TS5370A. This enables participants to materialize their creative vision from the click of the shutter to the final print.

Hunter Zhang, Director of the Image Communications Business Division at Canon Marketing Malaysia, emphasized the company’s dedication to environmental sustainability, as well as supporting the photography and videography communities in Malaysia.

Canon’s ‘Kyosei’ philosophy, which guides their operations, ensures a balanced approach between business growth and environmental responsibility.

As National Camera Day approaches, Canon remains at the forefront of revolutionizing visual content creation.
