Do you want to take pictures like this???

 

Or like this?

Or like this? (obviously, self-promotion is in progress…)

or this?

If you do and if you want to take such great shots like the above, its easy to achieve!

(p.s. all the shots above are taken by my dear Canon 500D)

 

All you have to do is to purchase a Canon EOS DSLR camera, an Ixus or PowerShot or even that latest camcorder from Legria series!

Now, how do you get up to speed with their capabilities? Sure, you can read the manual but nothing beats that time-honoured tradition of going to a school to get your basics down pat.

Here’s where Canon Imaging Academy come in. Very much like its doppelganger of an acronym, CIA – the Canon Imaging Academy have some of the most intelligent trainers within its ranks. Offering you the sweet spot of going up several levels of proficiency on the device you own.

And I was one of the pioneer students! Trust me, its all fun!!!
