BeLEAF in the Power of CAPTURE

Suntec Convention Centre, Meeting Room 325
02 May 2010

 

 

The main objectives of the workshop were to introduce to the local photography community the latest version of the Phase One Capture One software - Capture One 5 PRO - as well as offer participants an opportunity to experience the new camera system made up of the Aptus-II digital camera backs from Leaf and the 645DF camera body from Phase One.

We had a wonderful line-up of guest speakers who shared generously with our full-house crowd of 50 participants on a variety of topics:

  • Mr. Jesper Printz Johansen from Phase One in Copenhagen, who graced the event together with his colleagues Mr. Gary Wong and Mr. Fai Chan from Leaf's Asia Pacific office in Hong Kong; and
  • Mr. Matthew Tan, an award-winning and well-respected portrait photographer.

 

A sneak peek at what went on during the workshop, which was extended by another hour to accommodate the exciting programs we had in store for everyone:
