Photo & Imaging Expo Shanghai 2025 Canon Booth

By Louis Ferreira | Published: July 18, 2025

The P&I Expo has just started and will run through July 19th. Some photos of Canon’s booth were shared on Weibo. You can see the images above and check out a translated summary of the booth below:

[Virtual Tour of the P&I Expo]
Canon’s booth stayed true to its usual style, offering hands-on access to new cameras, livestreaming setups, and other interactive experiences—but this time, it also brought three big surprises:

First Surprise: 3D & VR
Visitors could try out VR shooting, immerse themselves in VR videos, and experience glasses-free 3D displays. Canon also showcased its one-click 3D modeling powered by its proprietary Dual Pixel technology.

Second Surprise: Custom Camera Memorial Models
Canon is planning to launch a service that turns old Canon devices into collectible part models—perfect for fans who want to preserve their gear in a meaningful way.

Third Surprise: Canon Asia Tourist Protection Plan
For travel photography enthusiasts, Canon introduced a warranty support plan covering 13 countries and regions in Asia and Australia. If your gear needs repairs while you’re traveling and it’s under warranty, you can get it fixed locally and claim reimbursement from Canon once you’re back. Pretty convenient, right?

And that’s not all—Canon also exhibited a 410-megapixel sensor, a complete lineup of RF lenses, and more. Interested? It’s definitely worth checking out.

Photographers: Expand Your Creativity and Versatility to Another Dimension with New Speedlite EL-1
As a photographer, the equipment you invest in needs to measure up to the standards you set forth as a creator. In the true spirit of exemplary creativity, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today announced the Speedlite EL-1. This new generation professional speedlight provides higher performance and reliability unlike ever before, in comparison to previous models, with a new rechargeable Li-ion battery and newly designed user-friendly interface.

“As an extended form of expression, we understand that integrating a flash into your photography is an art form, and having the right equipment to meet your artistic demands is imperative to client service,” said Tatsuro “Tony” Kano, executive vice president and general manager of the Canon U.S.A., Inc. Imaging Technologies & Communications Group. “We’re excited to bring the Speedlite EL-1 into our product catalog which continues to offer photographers, who are experts in their field, the right high-quality professional imaging tools of the trade.”

The Canon Speedlite EL-1 works seamlessly with EOS cameras and is ideal for any photographer who works in portrait, still-life, wedding or in-studio photography. It’s also a resourceful tool for those photographers who work for news agencies, red carpet events or entertainment reporters. Its durability and reliability are at the core of the newest features, which include:

  • A powerful rechargeable Li-ion Battery Pack providing high speed recycle and increase in number of flashes while utilizing the Canon LC-E6 battery charger
  • An increased continuous firing number of approximately 170 thanks to a new active cooling system
  • Wireless second-curtain sync
  • New joystick, FE one-touch memory, LED modeling lamp and user interface display design
  • A high-durability Xenon glass flash tube to provide higher accuracy and durability of the flash head

Additionally, the Speedlite EL-1 provides an expanded power range for versatility of exposure with “micro flash” minimum flash output as low as 1/8192 power, a zoom flash head that covers a wide focal length range of 24-200mm, bounce angle expanded to 120° and the same level of weather-sealing comparable with the EOS-1D camera series. Also included are two color filters and a bounce adapter for additional lighting control making the EL-1 a strong addition to the evolving catalog of Canon Speedlite flashes.

PP: Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 Fisheye Lens: A “Wacky” and Wonderful Addition to Your Mirrorless Kit

By Louis Ferreira | Published: July 14, 2025

Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye: Venus Optics / B&H Photo

The Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 Fisheye is a unique and fun lens, according to PP’s latest review, which you can watch above or check out the summary of their review below:

Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 Fisheye Lens Review
Chris Nichols took the new Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 full-frame fisheye lens for a spin at the Calgary Stampede. Known for its music scene, the Stampede, also called “Cowella,” provided a vibrant backdrop for testing this unique lens.

Lens Features and Design
The Laowa 8-15mm is a fisheye zoom lens designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras, available for Z, RF, Sony E, and L-mounts. At 15mm, it provides a full-frame image, while at 8mm it creates a circular fisheye effect with 180-degree coverage. A key drawback is the lack of electrical connections, meaning no EXIF data is recorded and in-body image stabilization (IBIS) is not fully supported. The lens is also not weather-sealed and weighs 650 grams.

Performance and Image Quality
Nichols suggests that while fisheye lenses can be seen as “one-trick ponies,” this Laowa offering is a solid choice for mirrorless shooters, especially with the limited options available. For the best results, he recommends using the lens at its extremes: 8mm for the full circular effect or 15mm for a diagonal fisheye look, as intermediate focal lengths can produce awkward-looking image.

The lens produces round, “soap bubble” specular highlights in its bokeh, though it’s not typically a lens used for shallow depth of field. For optimal sharpness, especially when subjects are off-center, stopping down the aperture is advised. Flare is described as “fun to use” with interesting concentric ring effects when the sun is in the center of the frame, but sun stars are “mediocre”.

Video and B-Roll
Jordan Drake, who shot the B-roll for the review, notes that for video, the lens is best used for a specific “wacky” effect. The review’s B-roll was shot using Wescott’s rustic wood panels as a background to match the Stampede’s aesthetic.

Conclusion
Despite the lack of electrical connections, Nichols enjoyed his time with the Laowa 8-15mm lens at the Stampede, highlighting its 180-degree coverage and impressive optical performance when stopped down. He recommends it as a “cool choice” for those looking for a fisheye lens for their mirrorless camera system.
