The camera will be showcased and launched for the first time yet in the hands of professional photographer and filmmaker David Newton over a workshop, then followed by a technical training led by Paul Atkinson. Moreover, visitors of the Canon studio will get the chance to experience the camera and the latest cinema lenses hands on. The “touch & try” zone will be located opposite to the workshop’s studio.

“We’re both proud and excited to be part of ONDXB. The festival’s incentivizing and innovative vision is aligned with our own. We’re positioning Canon as that medium of connectivity between aspiring and established creators. We have the means to equip them, and the philosophy to inspire them to narrate their own stories” says Venkatasubramanian Hariharan, Canon Middle East, Business Unit Director.
