Give the gift of reconnection with Canon

Did you know that smartphones are the most sought-after festive gift?

In America last year, they were on 50% of wish lists. Sure, they offer games, books, social apps, and even photography capabilities. But they also tend to divert our attention during the festive season—a time meant for togetherness.

We all have someone we wish we could reconnect with – be it a family member, an old high school friend, a neighbour, or a colleague. The festive season often deepens this longing. Instead of increasing screen time and settling for online interactions, why not truly engage with the people who matter most during the holidays?

As festive celebrations draw near, the anticipation of creating new, cherishable memories grows.

This year, consider a unique gift for someone you've lost touch with: a camera. Just a camera. It's more than a gift; it's an invitation to engage, to show interest, and to forge a closer bond. Encourage them to set aside their smartphone and capture those spontaneous, heartfelt moments with a camera.
