Introduction

Consumers are creating images like never before, but not necessarily with traditional cameras. Businesses are using technology in new ways to capture, print and share imagery. It’s transforming the way they work.

People with a sense of adventure are invited to experience the world through Canon. We aim to open up a fascinating world of stories to discover and share. This is our promise to everyone. Those who love us and those who don’t yet know us. Those who are experts and those who never want to be.

To deliver our promise, we are focusing on helping consumers, experts and businesses bring to life meaningful stories and experiences — the real reasons why people use our cameras and technology. Canon can play a part in every story.

When we re-focus on what matters to people, we connect with them emotionally and invite them to experience the world through Canon.

Our brand model

1.02

Our brand model defines what our brand stands for and why. It should serve as a guide for all future expressions of the brand, whether visual, verbal or experiential.

1 Brand Platform Our brand platform encapsulates all elements of our brand from our vision to our ambition and sits at the heart of all we do. Come and See acts as an external expression of our business.

2 Personality The qualities that guide how the brand acts, speaks, looks and feels.

3 Promise The unique experience and benefit we aim to deliver for our customers.

4 Vision and Ambition What we strive for; our ultimate goal

Vision Enriching lives and businesses through imaging experiences.

Ambition Canon should play a part in every

single image in the future.

Promise Canon opens up a fascinating

world of stories and experiences to discover and share.

Personality

We are inviting, human and dynamic.

1.03

How do we speak, how do we behave and how do we look?

How do we make people feel? Our brand personality plays a big part in creating a deeper emotional connection with our customers and sets us apart from our competitors. Across our business and wherever we are, whoever we are talking to, we should use our brand personality consistently to create a distinctly Canon experience.

Inviting We’re intriguing, inviting people to discover a boundless world of stories and experiences. We are open and accessible, encouraging anyone to join in and take part.

Dynamic Like the everyday explorer, we have a curious, active spirit. We want our customers to be free and playful, discovering and sharing experiences in whichever way they want. The opportunities we create for people to capture through photography, share through technology and reproduce through printing are boundless.

Human Our technology may be highly advanced but we want it to feel utterly simple and intuitive to use. Being human means we’re never contrived, intimidating or cold. We’re warm and approachable, always open to a conversation. We relate to each other through the stories and experiences that unite us as people.

How we speak

1.04

Our tone of voice must always reflect our brand personality and can be adjusted to suit different audiences from consumer to business.

Our language is warm, invitational and conversational in style, ensuring we are interesting and easily understood by everyone.

We always avoid jargon.

We use storytelling to bring experiences to life. Stories create intrigue to discover more about the benefits and advantages of our products. They should be inspirational and excite people about new creative possibilities. Enabling our audience to instantly picture themselves in the story.

We must adapt our messages and tone to suit different audiences.

Consumers We stimulate and excite our consumers with an intriguing and inviting tone that is warm, friendly and conversational. It should always feel as if we are speaking one to one. Our messages are invitational to demonstrate how everyone can explore new experiences. Professionals We engage and captivate professionals through an open, knowledgeable and conversational tone. Our messages focus on how we can help make experiences richer with Canon know-how and open up new possibilities. Internally Our focus is on the customer and how we can use our technology and know-how to make their experiences richer, deeper, more memorable.

We don’t hide behind corporate-speak. Our genuine passion for what we do shines through in our warm, friendly and approachable tone.

How we act

1.05

Being inviting, dynamic and human means we should make sure there is never a disconnect between what we promise as a brand and how we behave.

A great promise and brilliant personality count for little if we don’t bring them to life in everything we do, every day.

• We’re not intimidating; we’re friendly and welcoming, always open to a conversation.

• We treat every customer as a human being, not a number.

• We don’t talk at people, we connect with them emotionally.

• Although we’re reliable, the experiences we create are never predictable.

• We look for the excitement in the everyday — there’s always something interesting to discover and share.

How we look and feel

1.06

With our new visual identity we aim to create a brand that appeals to everyone, not just experts — the kind of people who have a sense of discovery and everyday adventure. The ones who love to explore the world around them. We aim to inspire them through the way we look, feel and sound.

Intriguing experiences and stories draw our customers in and stimulate interest in the benefits and advantages of what we can offer. We use a single strapline with three words in three circles to convey this — ‘Come and See’.

Through the use of circles, we create intrigue, inviting the curious explorer in. The circles are never static but always surprising, relevant and fresh. Our designs are full of energy and dynamism; they never feel rigid, corporate or aloof.

Introduction

With our strapline ‘Come and See’, we use circles as an intriguing invitation to look deeper into the world.

They open up the way, making Canon more democratic and accessible to everyone. The circles are not the story itself, they are a facilitator or device for telling the fascinating stories and experiences that are critical to what Canon represents. 

Our system is simple yet endlessly flexible, based on a few key principles. By applying the system correctly and consistently, we’ll ensure our identity always looks relevant, fresh and distinctive.

Our visual identity is applied across multiple media channels. To help manage the work-flow across these channels we have a communications framework called the Three States.

The Three States refer to the Dreaming, Exploring and Locating categories.

Dreaming — is traditionally categorised as above- the-line. Our communications at this level are about inspiring brand-led experiences and not products.

Exploring — traditionally below-the-line and on-line. We use stories to communicate product range benefits.

Locating — is the most functional POS level of communications and features our products and product information.

2.06Our identity Three states 360 brand experience

This framework provides structure to all our marketing communications efforts, and guidance around how we communicate what and how.

It illustrates the key touch points for each consumer mindset (dreaming, exploring, locating) across the whole brand experience.

While some touch points are used only for one consumer state (e.g. TV is exclusively for dreaming), others can cross more than one state (e.g. live events).

In summary:

• Dreaming Inspiring brand-led experiences

• Exploring Informative range benefit-led experiences

• Locating Transactional product-led experiences

Partnership

Canon en World Press PhotoCanon is al sinds 1992 corporate sponsor van World Press Photo. De jaarlijkse World Press Photo of the Year wedstrijd wordt wereldwijd gezien als de meest prestigieuze competitie voor fotojournalisten en biedt unieke, veelzeggende momentopnamen van gebeurtenissen en alledaagse situaties over de hele wereld. World Press Photo streeft naar het genereren van brede publieke interesse en waardering voor het werk van fotografen en de vrije uitwisseling van informatie. 

Canon en het Rode KruisCanon ondersteunt dertien landelijke Rode Kruis Organisaties in Europa, waaronder Nederland. De belangrijkste aandacht gaat hierbij uit naar nieuwe en bestaande jeugdprojecten van het Rode Kruis.

The CAS device should play a role in all aftersales communications that have:

An invitational aspect(e.g. - a leaflet with a CTA to visit the website)

An emotional aspect(e.g. - packaging for a product)

The ‘come and see’ fits well with a customerabout to open the box of their brand newproduct and experience it for the first time.The ‘come and see’ idea would be dilutedif it appears on a warranty document orsomething else factual or functional.

1 Emotional/invitational This piece of packaging features the

CAS device as it has both invitational and emotional aspects.

2 Factual/functional This piece of technical literature does

not feature the CAS device as has neither invitational or emotional aspects.

2.31 Our identity Come and See device Opacity mask

The CAS device features cut-through type on the words ‘come and see’. There may be instances when the cut-through lacks definition on high contrast photography.

For this purpose we place the CAS device over a transparent opacity mask in white for lighter photographs and dark grey for darker photographs.

The examples demonstrate how the mask improves legibility.

Transparent mask on light photographs

1 Cut through without mask Note the area beneath ‘see’.

2 White opacity mask Without the positioned CAS device.

3 Cut through with mask Now note the area beneath ‘see’.

Transparent mask on dark photographs

4 Cut through without mask Note the area beneath ‘see’.

5 Grey opacity mask Without the positioned CAS device.

6 Cut through with mask Now note the area beneath ‘see’.

OpacityThe opacity of the mask is down to your individual need. We suggest a minimum opacity of 50%. A maximum of 80%.

The CAS device should always be clearly legible when applied to background colours or photographs.

On Canon coloured backgrounds apply:

1 Canon Red CAS device On Canon light grey backgrounds.

2 White CAS device On Canon dark grey backgrounds.

Applying the CAS device on photographic background, ensure it is legible and in an area with little contrast whilst respecting the CAS device clearspace.

2.33 Our identity Come and See device Exclusion zone and minimum size

The CAS device should always be prominent and legible. The exclusion zone prevents other elements being placed too close to the CAS device. This exclusion zone is equal to the ‘and’ circle measure.

1 Minimum exclusion zone This is the minimum amount of space

that should be left clear around the CAS device. Whenever possible leave more space than the minimum permitted.

2 Minimum size For print, the minimum recommended

size of the CAS device is 27mm wide. Online, the minimum recommended size of the CAS device is 125 pixels wide. The minimum size is the standard sized CAS device (section 2.34) matched to the minimum Canon logo size (section 2.14).

2.34 Our identity Come and See device Sizes

There are three recommended scales for the CAS device.

The size of the CAS device is determined by the width of the Canon logo. When creating an application apply the correct logo size for the format first (see section 2.15). Then size the CAS device at any of the shown scales applicable to the application.

1 Small (80% Canon logo size) Used when space within the design

is limited or when a smaller CAS device is considered more appropriate.

2 Standard (100% Canon logo size) This is the CAS device size that is

to be considered the standard scale.

3 Large (150% Canon logo size) Used when space within the design

is not an issue or when more emphasis on the CAS device is needed.

The exception to this principle is for advertising as shown in section 2.36 - 2.37.

The hierarchy of information is always:

• Experience (picture)• Invitation (CAS device)• Host (Canon logo)

This principle is shown left.

OOH applications (this being a 6-sheet.)

2 Logo top right The hierarchy principle typically found on

printed applications (this being an A-size landscape format).

3 Logo centre right The hierarchy principle on an environment.

4 Logo top left (exception) The hierarchy principle on what would

typically be a digital or online application.

The CAS device is designed to be flexible and applied to areas of the canvas with the most impact. Although not recommended, there may be instances where a close relationship between the logo and CAS device is required.

Three lock-ups are shown. Use these as a guide to create the lock-up following the sizing and positioning principles.

1 Logo bottom right This position would be typically seen

on media when the logo needs to be an endorsement.

2 Logo top right This position would be typically seen

on OOH media when the logo needs to be at a prominent height.

If the Canon logo is positioned centre right, either arrangement one or two can be used.

3 Logo top left This position would be typically seen

online and on hand-held devices.

2.37 Our identity Come and See device ATL lock-up version

There is a specific lock-up designed solely for use in ATL. This lock-up should not be used anywhere else.

The positioning principle still holds true that the Come and See device is the invitation from the host (Canon) to the experience but in ATL the experience is the digital experience (website), so the invitation points instead to the call to action (CTA).

The CTA position and colour (black, white or red) are set, but the type size is flexible depending on the application (use common sense to ensure correct visual balance and legibility).

In countries where the law requires a translation of the words ‘come and see’ we will use an asterisk to guide readers to the translation.

The asterisk should be the same colour as the CAS device. i.e. Canon Red or white.

Canon Red CAS device On Canon light grey backgrounds and light photographic backgrounds.

Canon White CAS device On Canon dark grey backgrounds and dark photographic backgrounds.

Position To avoid interfering with our visual device and the message it conveys, we use an asterisk outside the device as shown on the left.

The asterisk needs to correspond to the translation which must appear somewhere on the communication. i.e. the footer.

French: Venez, regardezRussian: Спешите видеть

Important note: If the CAS device is scaled down please ensure that the asterisk can be identified as an asterisk and not a circle.

2.49 Our identity Typography Styling

We have guiding principles for the way we style our typography.

1 Large headlines (above 24pt) Choose Gotham Light or Gotham Book.

2 Small headlines (below 24pt) Choose Gotham Light or Gotham Book.

3 Sub heads Choose Gotham Book.

4 Sub heads Choose Gotham Medium.

5 Sub heads Choose Gotham Bold.

Greater emphasis can be achieved through using a heavier weight in sub-heads.

6 Body copy Choose Gotham Book.

7 Captions These can be in any additional weight

of Gotham.

8 Leading and tracking For copy sizes up to 24pt. The Leading

principle is 105–120% value of the point size. All copy is tracked to −10pt. Larger sizes may need tracking to −20pt and tighter leading.

Microsoft terminologyIn Microsoft applications. Standard typographic terms such as leading, is called line spacing. Tracking is referred to as character spacing.

Headlines< 24pt (Light) (Book)

Sub headsare foremphasis

Body copy is the workhorse of any given application and is always in Gotham Book

Leading is 120% of the type size. Tracking is only ever between −10pt and −20pt.

Captioning and legal copy should never be less than 5pt and should appear in Gotham light.

Emphasis may be achieved by using additional weights of Gotham.

2.52 Our identity Circles Introduction

As part of our graphic language, circles reflect our brand personality.

They invite, intrigue and guide people through the stories we wish to tell, while creating a unique style that is unmistakably Canon.

Their appearance varies and their application is flexible.

There are three types of circle application:

1 Navigation tab To highlight headings, primary text or key

information on covers or within spreads. 2 Typographic bullet

To highlight headings or bullets within body copy.

3 Circles as graphic language Used to direct the viewer’s focus they

playfully highlight areas of an image; link information, products and images.

2.53 Our identity Circles Navigation tab

The navigation tab is a solid red, light grey or dark grey semi-circle which can highlight document titles, headings or key information.

The tab helps to increase the presence of Canon Red in our communications while directing a viewer’s focus to key information.

We have specified heights for typical A-formats. The heights apply for landscape or portrait formats:

• A5: 6 mm • A4: 8 mm • A3: 10 mm

The size of the navigation tab is determined by the format and always bleeds (50%) off the page.

The minimum clearspace between the navigation tab and the highlighted text is the same width as the navigation tab (X).

1 Alignment The tab aligns centrally to the cap-height of the first line of text. The type size may vary but the tab does not.

2 Position The tab may be positioned at any level

on the left edge of the page.

The position of the tab should be considered along with all the elements of the design.

2.56 Our identity Circles Typographic bullet

The purpose of the typographic bullet is to highlight headings, pull-out copy or quotes.

The bullet may also separate sections or chapters within body copy, highlight page numbers, or as a traditional bullet point.

The preferred colour of the bullet is Canon Red. It may be applied in black or white to increase legibility at small sizes or on dark backgrounds, where Canon Red is not legible.

The bullet is always a single line space above the typography at the same size and weight.

2.63 Our identity Circles Sizing

There is a minimum and maximum size for all applications. With the exception of the light circle.

1 Maximum size This is determined by the margins of

the shortest edge of the format. This rule applies to portrait or landscape formats.

2 Minimum size (20mm) It is important not to reduce the

circle to a size less than 20mm. This is to differentiate the circle from the navigation tab.

2.66 Our identity Circles Cropping

The circles must be cropped by at least 10% of the circle width. No circle may be cropped any smaller than a quarter-circle. The aim is to see a circle and not a curve.

Cropping is only applicable to the solid, keyline and transparent circles.

1 CAS device is present minimum Do not use circles.

2 CAS device is present maximum Use a maximum of two circles in any one style or any two styles.

3 CAS device not present minimum Use a minimum of one circle in any style,

2.68Our identityCirclesColoured circles and background colour

Always use the permitted colour combinations for circle and background colours. Circles should always be 100% colour from the supporting colour palette. How to use background colour and colored circles:

• Primary colour background: Circles should always be 100% colour from any of the supporting colour palette.

• 20% tinted background from supporting colour palette: Circles should always be the same colour as the background, but used at 100% colour.

Important Note: For further details on permitted coloured circles, please see the supporting colour palette page.

2.72 Our identity Circles Light circle opacity strength

The light circle should act as a faint effect to highlight the key area of an image.

The opacity strength may vary depending on the image colour and depth.

On dark images start with a 10% opacity of white and increase or decrease to create a subtle effect.

1 4% — too faint

2 10% — OK

3 40% — too heavy

The light circle is intended to appear large over an image — multiple circles are not permitted.

Always obtain print tests for every image where this circle is applied.1 2

As an imaging brand, all Canon photography and video should be of the highest quality, show interesting visual perspectives and demonstrate creative use of imaging technology and techniques.

This section is an overview of the key principles.

For more technical photography and video information please refer to the photography and video guidelines.

We live in a world full of experiences with fascinating and enriching stories, waiting to be discovered. Our captured experiences are an invitation to the curious explorer to pause for a moment, to look deeper, to see. Challenging convention, precious moments and discoveries are shared through imagery that intrigues, delights and provides a new perspective on the world we think we know.

2.79 Our identity Photography and video Experience photography and video

Understanding that experiences activate diverse senses, the moment captured must connect emotionally with the audience. How might it feel, smell, sound or even taste? The art of capturing experiences is the ability to take the viewer on a journey of discovery, inviting them to become part of the moment. We capture experiences with a sense of open possibility, allowing imaginations to decide what came before or what comes next.

Experience photographs should be:

• Dynamic — photographs should never be bland, but should always be interesting and unexpected, inviting the customer into a new world.

• Real — images should always feel authentic, minimal retouching is acceptable but avoid excessive Photoshop effects.

• Inviting — there should always be a strong sense of depth with a background and foreground, where possible.

These principles apply to the following types of imagery:

• Brand Imagery• Sample Imagery• Campaign Imagery• Stock Imagery• Event Imagery

Video Types:

• PR Videos• Instore Videos• TVC• Product Video• Sample Video

Canon products should be realistically photographed with minimal digital manipulation. This ensures an open and honest photography and video style.

Products may be shot in actual, imperfect surroundings, grounding the product by showing a ‘real’ experience. The result being products feel more attainable whilst telling stories which highlight the product benefits.

When people are shown with the product, the purpose is for that person to add context. The product is hero.

DON’T Choose obvious and clichéd images — we are explorers

DON’T Use circles to crop or hold images.

2.82 Our identity Photography and video Photography and video don’ts

Our visual style is as rich and varied as the experiences we aim to capture. However certain images and effects are off-brand and should never be used.

Follow these rules to maintain consistency within our visual identity system.

Always use approved photography, available on the brandsite:

canon-europe.com/brandsite

For further information, contact the brand team (details in section 3.02).

DON’T Choose to force the narrative

DON’T Choose staged images with people or product lifestyle imagery.

DON’T Choose flat images — photographs should have depth

DON’T Choose bland images. Photographs should be intriguing and stimulating

DON’T Use excessive image manipulation. Creative Commons © Nicolas Raymond (freestock.ca)

Retouching• Agency images — retouching is only

allowed if it is essential to the final image. However, the final image must retain a real and honest feel and not be so retouched that it begins to look like it has been created in Photoshop or via CGI.

• Other Canon produced imagery — Retouching should be limited by the possibilities within DPP, Digital Photo Professional, Canon’s own image processing software, and with the permission of the photographer.

Ambassadors, Explorers & Masters• No retouching or alteration except with

the permission of the photographer.• Credit the photographer on all images

with the copyright symbol & title. eg. “© Brent Stirton, Canon Ambassador” with the permission of the photographer.

For further guidance please refer to the photography and video guidelines.

General guidelinesAll images should be shot on a Canon camera and using a Canon lens.

Always• Shoot at maximum resolution and

the lowest possible ISO• Ensure the image is a true representation

of the products’ capabilities• Ensure that images do not suffer from

colour casts or lens flare that could be construed as optical imperfections

• Be aware of religious references and culturally sensitive issues

Don’t• Vignette• Reverse images — unless agreed or

deemed necessary and never reverse images containing text or famous people

• Show other company branding and especially not ones that conflict with Canon brand values

Stock images• All stock images must be shot on

a Canon camera and using a Canon lens• The image and its quality must be

a representative sample of the camera/product that it is intended to illustrate

• Ensure the agreed usage rights are obtained at the time of purchase, and that these details are entered into Kura

RestrictionsAll images should be legal, decent, honest and truthful and should reflect a sense of responsibility to consumers and to society. Content with references to tobacco, alcoholic drinks, nudity, gambling, weapons and politics is not permitted.

The exception to this rule is photography in marketing materials aimed at professional photographers. For example Canon Professional Network (CPN).

For CPN, reportage photography can be used which may be more journalistic than our other images. Please choose these images wisely.

2.85 Our identity IconographyIcon style

Icons use a simple clean vector style and can be either outline, solid or a combination of the two. As well as icons, we can also use Helvticons, Boldicons & Glyph Icons in Canon communications.

All icons are fixed artworks and solids should not be converted to outline by users.

All icons should appear in a Canon primary colour wherever possible.

2.88 Our identity IconographyInfographics style A

Style A shows the Infographics appearing unboxed, placed on top of a flat primary colour background.

This is recommended and should always be the default version without a surrounding box – this clean, purist yet free approach is most faithful to the new Canon style.

2.89 Our identity IconographyInfographics style B

Style B shows a coloured box that contains the icons if legibility would be an issue with the background or to create pace and section infographics.

When colouring boxes and backgrounds grey (light and dark) is used as the default background colour. If further colours are required for a background it should be a 20% tint of a secondary colour and should match the colour of the box (which would always be a 100% tint).

In some instances infographics can also be placed on top of images. Care should be taken to make sure that legibility of information is maintained.

Where possible low contrast, dark images should be selected so that the content can be reversed out of the image.

2.91 Our identity IconographyInfographics check list

Although we encourage creativity and appreciate the need for a flexible system when creating new infographics, always consider the following elements when creating an infographic:

1 Circles Always ensure the circle has a purpose in

directing the eye through an infographic.

2 Legibility Consider a good clear space around icons

and scale them to an appropriate size to maintain legibility.

3 Accent colour Keep the accent colour of all icons

consistent across an infographic.

4 Logo Always display the Canon logo on stand

alone infographics

5 Background colour Use Canon primary colours where

possible, or use 20% tints of selected accents colour for background.
