The Canon brand of cameras got its start in the early 1930s in Tokyo, Japan, as Precision Optical Instruments Co. 1935 marked the release of Japan’s first 35mm focal-plane-shutter camera, the product that started it all. Now, almost 100 years later, Canon is the world’s largest camera manufacturer and is respected across the globe for its quality and innovation. The company now produces photo and video technology as well as printers, scanners, medical equipment, and manufacturing equipment.
While Canon makes a wide range of products today, they are, of course, most famous for their cameras. From point-and-shoot models to DSLR and mirrorless cameras, they produce it all in high quality. Photographers looking for the latest technology and a lightweight build should check out models like the Canon EOS R 30.3MP Mirrorless Full Frame Digital Camera (Body Only) 3075C002. This camera is among the most affordable mirrorless bodies out there of any brand. If you’ve already got a camera body, though, you can consider investing in a new lens. The Canon EF-M 32mm f/1.4 STM Lens 2439C002, for example, is a great basic lens with optimal low-light performance.
The Canon brand has a wide range of products for photographers and videographers of any skill level. But you don’t just need the camera gear itself— you also need accessories like straps, bags, and protection from the elements to ensure your camera functions properly.
