Canon, imaging solutions provider has expanded its range of products in the Nigerian market with the launch of three new products – the EOS R camera system, the PIXMA TS9540 printer and the ZOEMINI pocket printer.
The company which reiterated its devotion to this market, says that every new technology solution it develops is in line with its commitment to ensuring that customers optimally manage productivity.
Amine Djouahra, senior manager sales and marketing – B2C, Canon Central & North Africa, said, “We are very proud to have officially launched and announced the availability of our EOS R System today here in Lagos- Nigeria. This market plays a significant role in our growth plans and we hope that today’s local launch event will further cement our position as innovators in imaging technology.”
Canon’s EOS R System is redefining the frontiers of photography and filmmaking. Over thirty years on from the original, era-defining EOS launch, the bold, new EOS R System once again expands photographic possibilities in countless ways. The new RF lens mount has been engineered with the perfect blend of optical, mechanical and electronic design to capture unique moments previously seen as very challenging.
During the launch of these products in Lagos on Wednesday March 20, 2019, Seasoned photographer, TY Bello said that the new Canon EOS R camera was far from the ordinary.
“While test shooting with this new camera, I realized that it could do so many other things that I never imagined I could do with such a compact, lightweight camera. It is very silent to shoot with and can gain focus on an object in extremely low light conditions. Even if you’re in a very dark room – six times darker than the human eyes can see, the camera will focus on your object and you can take perfectly clear pictures,” Bello said.
Since its inception in 1987, the EOS System – including Cinema EOS – has grown into the most recognised imaging system in the world.
Also launched on the same day, the Canon PIXMA TS9540 is a compact All-In-One inkjet printer that is capable of A3 printing, with a comparable A4 printer footprint.
Omotayo Omodia, country manager, Canon Nigeria, explained the new printer to deliver professional results with the help of Canon’s class leading FINE print head technology and its five individual inks give photos a rich gradation and up to a 100-year album life.
“Unleash your creativity with all new feature of create fun nail stickers and customize your nails with Canon’s unique nail sticker media and app. It comes with 200 designs (with new designs released each year). You can also get creative and print your own personal photos to stick on your nails,” Omodia said.
The ZOE MINI is Canon’s smallest and lightest Mini Photo Printer, the perfect accessory for those who enjoy snapping and sharing treasured moments with family and friends. It features ZINK™ technology, meaning zero ink is required. With customisation at its foundation, this printer, through the Canon Mini Print app, offers the option to print not only individual smudge-free and water-resistant 2” x 3” prints or stickers, but also a tile print that is made up of four or nine prints, as well as over ten unique collage templates that print on one 2×3 photo.
