A Visit To Focus On Imaging
If you have not visited this years Focus on Imaging Show at the NEC then you really have missed a treat. The big boys really were making a splash, with a very strong presence from Nikon who were proudly showing of the HDR video capability of the new D90. The quality of the presentation and video all filmed on the D90 was simply stunning.
Canon had a large stand but really for me it was the size and scale of the Panasonic presence that caught my eye, not least their party piece giant camera. They were launching the world’s first interchangeable lens system camera with touch control shooting, so keep an eye out for the Lumix DMC-G2.
It was great to see the variety of stands giving lectures on all manor of topics, from the best way to light a portrait, to how to market your pictures to digital manipulation techniques.
