Photography and Camera Expos in 2008
Photography expos are a great way to see what’s new for your favourite brands, and to test drive many different types of cameras, that may not necessarily be available in every retail outlet that sells camera gear.
The beginning of a new year is the perfect time to check out what’s going on when, and where.
Depending on where you live, here are some resources for finding photographic expos you might be interested in.
There are many expos and shows on - particularly in the US. Here are a few:
United States

Wow,
Who’s in for a world trip following the photography expos?
Thanks for all that research, Alpha.
