ChallengeHow do we grow Canon more than the growing DSLR category, by attracting beginners and enthusiasts.
Solution
By inspiring beginners and enthusiasts in a way that helps them achieve more with their creative photography. Leveraging the insight that creative photography isn’t about technology, it’s about inspiration. For beginners, they need to see inspiring photos to know where tostart and to think they can do it. For enthusiasts, they want to explore andexperiment and be challenged, also finding inspiration by seeing photos thruother people’s eyes. Canon would own an inspirational relationship that woulddevelop photographers skills through challenges, competitions, tutorials and acommunity for sharing and exhibiting photographs.
