Step into the story of Canon — from a small Japanese lab in 1933 to the world’s leader in imaging and camera technology. Discover every milestone that shaped Canon’s history and future.

1933 – بداية الحلم

In a tiny room in Tokyo, a group of passionate engineers founded Precision Optical Instruments Laboratory. Their dream? To create Japan’s first high-quality 35mm camera — a camera that could compete with Europe’s best.
That dream was named Kwanon, symbolizing the Goddess of Mercy — a name that would soon evolve into Canon.

من 1936 إلى 1940

1936 – أول كاميرا 35 ملم في اليابان

The AE-1 changed everything, making advanced photography accessible to everyone.

1987 – The EOS Revolution
