Workshops and the two seminars at the 2-day (24-25 August) event at the refurbished Suntec City Convention Centre were sold out, as participation in this year’s event was almost twice that of the inaugural I AM NIKON DAY event last year.

Participants as well as visitors passing by had fun at the Nikon Day Photo Wall, taking photo souvenirs or visiting various Nikon camera display booths showcasing the latest Nikon COOLPIX cameras and Nikon 1 series.

In line with Nikon’s slogan of “At the Heart of the Image”, the aim of the 2-day event was to enrich the public with greater photography knowledge and tips, for both beginner photographers as well as seasoned amateurs.
