Canon has announced its lineup of speakers for The Photography Show & The Video Show 2021, with big names like BBC presenter Chris Packham, sportswear photographer Hanina Pinnick and professional sports shooter Eddie Keogh.
Taking place from 18-21 September at the NEC in Birmingham, England, The Photography Show will see Canon join 150 of the biggest brands in imaging as the event returns to a physical, live format, on its stand at N500,N400.
In addition to hosting an all-star lineup of speakers, Canon will also be showcasing the best Canon cameras including the Canon EOS R5 and Canon EOS R6, along with the latest lenses, flashguns, accessories and apparel. There will also be a collection bin for spent Canon ink cartridges, which will be collated for recycling.
As exciting as the kit, though, is the star-studded roster. Chris Packham CBE is not only a noted conservationist, being a fixture on BBC nature programs, he is also an avid photographer – and his talks on Sunday 19 and Monday 20 September explore how he found respite through the camera lens.
While not the household name that Packham is, Hanina Pinnick has certainly worked with brands that are known in every household, having shot campaigns for Adidas, Nike, New Balance, Foot Locker and others.
Not only is Camille Seaman a TED Senior Fellow, she has captured images for the likes of National Geographic, Time and The New York Times, specializing in fragile environments, extreme weather and storm chasing.
