Speaking about the initiative, Mr. C Sukumaran, Director, Consumer System Products & Imaging Communication Products highlighted that, “Amidst a global pandemic and lockdown across the country, we believe it is imperative to keep our consumers motivated and engaged. While the current times may feel challenging, our endeavour is to drive home the point that this could be the best time to learn something new and hone your skills in the art of photography. Considering this as an opportunity for the brand and with an aim to flourish the culture of mainstream photography in India, Canon India is organizing the masterclass webinars in collaboration with some of the best talents in the photography industry. Given our focused approach to ensure that the learning curve for photography enthusiasts is maintained, we are certain that these online masterclasses will be well received by our patrons across the country and will help them pursuing their passion for photography.”

Canon strongly believes that there should be no reason for people to stop learning new skills in the current lockdown. Each class is being hosted by a professional photographer, sharing in depth knowledge pertaining to their genre of specialized photography. These webinars cover a wide range of topics such as cinematic videos from a DSLR, pro tips on Wedding Photography, Professional Guide to Photography & many more. The first class was conducted by John Edwards on Professional Guide to Cinematic Videos from a DSLR, followed by three more classes covering Travel Photography and Wedding Photography.
