Camera Store Week kicks off on Sep 16 – and it's coming to a store near YOU!
From September 16 to 22, Camera Store Week will be taking place at a local camera shop near you. It’s your opportunity to get hands-on experience with the latest Canon products like the EOS R1 and EOS R5 Mark II, talk to Canon experts on everything from cameras and lenses to printing and finishing, and take part in talks and workshops to help you get the best from your equipment.
This is a grassroots event that brings the best products and specialists to camera stores across the country, giving everybody access to Canon’s cameras, lenses, knowledge and expertise while supporting local businesses – with exclusive offers and an exciting competition running throughout the week.
Not only will you get the opportunity to touch and try the Canon EOS R range, helping you find out first hand what’s right for you, Canon is supported by brands such as Manfrotto, Lowepro, Delkin and Rode to enrich the image and content creation process.
What is Camera Store Week?
This year, Camera Store Week is being held from Monday September 16 to Sunday September 22.
Canon started the event back in 2021, as a way to bring together individual retailers into a single, unified, supported celebration of imaging, taking place at the local level
The concept is to share inspirational ideas, promotional offers and hands-on opportunities in-person, enabling you to ask questions about products you’re interested in and get advice about equipment you already own.
Camera stores are uniquely able to offer this kind of personal, one-to-one experience to give you insight and guidance that’s tailored to you. It’s a chance to talk, photographer to photographer, about your goals for your imaging and what you can do to realise them.
What is happening?
A host of different events and activities will be held throughout the week, including:
Canon Expert Days
These give you the chance to talk to product specialists about EOS R bodies and lenses, get advice on what equipment will best suit your own needs, and try out the kit for yourself – including the brand new EOS R5 Mark II and the flagship EOS R1.
Workshops & Seminars
Professional photographers explain how and why they use their Canon gear, and demonstrate how you can get the most out of your cameras and lenses by sharing their practical skills and pro tips.
Exclusive prices
Canon will be offering unbeatable promotions during Camera Store Week, including savings of up to £780 on the Canon EOS R6 Mark II hybrid camera, and up to 10% on RF lenses.
Handpicked collaborations
In addition to its own products, Canon is collaborating with some of the biggest brands in the business like Manfrotto, Delkin, Lowepro and Rode to provide further offers, enabling your to improve your imaging even more.
