Nikon Canada partners with Adventure Canada

Nikon Canada has partnered with expedition travel company Adventure Canada, a move that will outfit all of Adventure Canada’s 2016 expeditions with complimentary Nikon cameras and lenses for guests.

Passengers aboard select expeditions will have the opportunity to gain first-hand experience with select Nikon gear as they explore Canada and Greenland’s most remote wilderness destinations.

Nikon gear available on the ships will include the highly-anticipated D500, a robust and lightweight DX-format HD-SLR camera with 4K UHD video.

Adventure Canada’s Mighty Saint Lawrence and Heart of the Arctic 2016 expeditions have been hand-selected as Nikon Canada Expeditions.

Award-winning Canadian photographer and Nikon Canada Ambassador Michelle Valberg, who has a long-standing history with both companies, will be present on the Heart of the Arctic expedition to share her field experience and expertise with passengers, encouraging them to learn and explore photographic techniques.

Additionally, a Nikon Canada technical representative will be aboard the ship to help passengers get the most out of the Nikon photography equipment.

Adventure Canada is also launching #MyAdventureCanada, an online photo contest designed to encourage photographers to tell their own stories through images.

Launching on March 21, 2016, #MyAdventureCanada asks participants to illustrate what Canadian adventure means to them by submitting photos of their own adventures Canada-wide.

The photo entry that receives the most online votes will win passage for two aboard Heart of the Arctic 2016, a value of over $25,000 USD. The runner-up will win a Nikon D3300 HD-SLR and 18-55mm VR Lens Kit, valued at $569.95 CAD.
