Hello and welcome to Canon Blogger. So, what is this place really all about? So glad you asked! Canon Blogger is all about sharing. Sharing insights and experience from a photographer, blogger, an IT Professional for nearly ten years now, and most importantly, an educator! My name is Jason Anderson and I am the host of CB. I have been working with photography in various capacities for about seven years now.
As the name of the blog suggests, you probably know that my gear is based on the Canon family, specifically the EOS line. Don't worry though, as I have dabbled with Nikon, Pentax, and dating back to my youth, even the Vivitar line (specifically a 110 film camera), so content here is designed to be as device-agnostic as possible so everyone can get something from what I am sharing!
