Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
Introduction
Version 1.2
Canon represents an invitation.
We invite people everywhere —
consumers, businesses and experts
— to join us on an adventure to
discover and explore great stories
and experiences.
Our identity is at the heart of this
invitation and will help us connect
emotionally with everyone who
shares an attitude for exploration
of the world.
This document is your resource
for reproducing our identity.
It contains all you should need
to create a consistent look and
feel across all media touchpoints.

Our brand strategy
Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
Version 1.2
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.

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

Enriching lives and businesses
through imaging experiences.

Canon should play a part in every
single image in the future.

Canon opens up a fascinating
world of stories and experiences
to discover and share.

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.

Vision and Ambition

Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
Version 1.2
Personality
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.
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.
We are inviting,
human and dynamic.
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.
1.03
Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
Version 1.2
How we speak
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 knowhow 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 corporatespeak. Our genuine passion for what
we do shines through in our warm,
friendly and approachable tone.
1.04
Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
Version 1.2
How we act
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.
1.05
Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
Version 1.2
How we look
and feel
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.
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.
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’.

Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
Version 1.2
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. Canon Visual Identity Guidelines

Three states
Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
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 abovethe-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.
Version 1.2
2.05
Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
Version 1.2
This framework provides structure to
all our marketing communications efforts,
and guidance around how we communicate
what and how.
Dreaming

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

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.

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.

This is the minimum amount of space
that should be left clear around the CAS

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).

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.
80% of (X)
(X)
150% of (X)
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.

• Experience (picture)
• Invitation (CAS device)
• Host (Canon logo)
This principle is shown left.

The hierarchy principle typically seen on
OOH applications (this being a 6-sheet.)
2 Logo top right
The hierarchy principle typically found on
printed applications (this being an A-size

Close arrangement
Version 1.2

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.
1
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.

As the CAS close arrangement
is used in exceptional
circumstances, it is not available

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).

Translation and position of asterisk
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.
1 Canon Red CAS device
On Canon light grey backgrounds and
light photographic backgrounds.

2 Canon White CAS device
On Canon dark grey backgrounds and

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, regardez
Russian: Спешите видеть

down please ensure that the asterisk can be

Their appearance varies and their application
is flexible.

To highlight headings, primary text or key
information on covers or within spreads.
2 Typographic bullet

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.

Graphic language introduction
Circles are used to direct the viewer’s
focus; to link information, products and
images; whilst helping to create intriguing
layout designs.
They are playful, appearing free
and spontaneous.

They may be used to:
• Contain short amounts of text
• Direct the reader’s eye to key information
•Act as a backdrop for product logos
or product images
They may also be left empty, acting
as a visual navigation link.
The permitted styles of circles are:
1

As an imaging brand, all Canon photography and video
should be of the highest quality, show interesting visual

Experience photography and video
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.

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
•

Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
General guidelines
All 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
Version 1.2
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
Restrictions
All 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.
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.

Iconography
Infographics 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.
Canon Visual Identity Guidelines
Version 1.2
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).

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.
