Beyond the cameras and lenses upon which Canon initially built its name, the company is focused on the development of its customer service experience and innovating within the imaging space.  Canon EXPO 2017 will provide visitors the opportunity to see the company’s professional 4K camcorders, high resolution chip security cameras designed for low-light conditions; and output products including 4K projectors and 12-color-ink printer systems.  People will also have the chance to see medical, architecture, security and real estate imaging products on site, and test out 3D printers, ophthalmoscopy and eye refraction products.

“Canon leads Vietnam in DSLR, inkjet printers, and our copiers, our digital mirrorless cameras all occupy top 2 or 3 market positions here.  With 15 years of experience in Vietnam behind us, we have an in-depth understanding of the demands of customers here, across the consumer space, but also in the business community, in areas as diverse as security, healthcare and architecture,” said Mr. Hiroshi Yokota, CEO of Canon Marketing Vietnam.  “Canon EXPO is a celebration then for all of our customers in Vietnam, showcasing a 15 year development journey of Canon here.”

“Canon’s success today would not have been possible without the enduring support of our customers and our partners – especially Le Bao Minh, our valued distribution partner here for two decades,” Mr. Yokota continued.  “We are committed to two key philosophies: kyosei, which means living and working for the common good; and ‘Delighting You Always’, both our slogan and our promise to our customers to bring them technology that adds joy to their lives.”

Canon EXPO:  A celebration of the latest trends in imaging

Canon EXPO 2017 will feature the first Vietnam showing of Canon’s latest developments.  These include 3D printers, cinema-grade 4K projectors and 120MP / 250MP CMOS sensors.

While Canon is well known for its DSLRs and its compact, fashionable cameras, Canon EXPO will give photographers their first chance to see the world’s highest resolution sensors for themselves.  The 120MP and 250 MP sensors are able to create pictures as large as a soccer field.  The sensors will be used for such purposes as security cameras in future.

The image quality experience is a journey from input to output.  Canon EXPO will allow designers, marketers and artists to view stunning creations from Canon’s latest 3D printers.  The printers allow users to make their ideas become tangible realities in just seconds.  Dubbed ‘MARV’ – from MARVelous – the printers showcase the magic behind imaging technology, and the marvelous feeling that comes with the 3D printing experience.

Canon EXPO will highlight the broad reach of Canon’s technology, from the consumer-focused personal and family cameras, to semi-professional and professional grade photographic equipment, to photo printers for preserving memories. The business segment has options for enterprises large and small, including multifunction printers and scanners with their dedicated Therefore and uniFLOW software that enhances the performance of industrial printers, projectors and network cameras.  Meanwhile, the one stop solution with multi-functional printer imageRUNNER ADVANCE Gen 3 scales can satisfy the demand of any modern office.  Beyond just scanning and saving data via Therefore, it also monitors the workplace printing environment with uniFLOW to manage the safe and secure storage of data.

Canon EXPO – A celebration of new technological breakthroughs

Canon EXPO pulls together a trio of breakthrough technologies expected to be at the forefront of the future of imaging.  These are:

  1. Super sharp printing technology for a wide variety of materials

Visitors will see samples printed on glass, iron, wood and stone from Canon’s printers.  The company will also have the imagePROGRAF PRO-540 large-format printer.  With a red stripe reminiscent of Canon’s camera lenses, the printer features 12-LUCIA PRO colors based on the Chrome Optimizer standard that helps optimize photo colors, along with a new generation FINE print head to help save time and generate high resolution imagery. The two-paper-roll design also provides flexibility in converting print materials.

Canon EXPO features a cinema zone, where the company’s entertainment technology will be at the center of a full area of games and movies on a 4K projector screen – the hottest trend in home theater.

Few things concern us as much as our own security, and with an eye on the future of security, Canon will launch a high-resolution network camera system with an ultra-wide viewing angle, that can see through the night and capture movement in extreme low light conditions.
