Shooting for the top: Canon Ambassadors

The Canon Ambassadors programme is an ambitious new project, which will take our links with the world of professional photography to another level.

We have invited a number of internationally renowned photographers to work with us, to create a new and powerful connection between Canon and the professional community.

The Ambassadors will be sharing their expertise with other photographers, both professionals and enthusiasts, and helping us to develop new products that offer even greater creative possibilities.

A truly international group, they represent the full range of photographic disciplines, from photojournalism and wildlife to fashion and wedding.

But they all have two things in common: they are photographers of the first rank, recognised and respected by their fellow professionals, and upholders of the highest standards in all aspects of their craft; and they are committed and expert Canon users, willing to pass on their experience and knowledge.

With this exhibition, we are proud to introduce the first Ambassadors: Lorenzo Agius, Jeff Ascough, Frits van Eldik, Gary Knight, Ziv Koren, Michael Nichols, Paolo Pellegrin and Brent Stirton.
