Contest: Nikon Photo Contest 2016-2017

Nikon will celebrate its 100th anniversary in 2017. Congratulations! There will be 'Nikon 100th Anniversary Award' and 'next Generation Award' that targets the discovery of fresh young talent this year. Entry closes on Friday, January 27, 2017 at 1pm Japan Standard Time. Go over your photographs or grab your camera right now when you still have some time! 



History

The Nikon Photo Contest International has been held by Nikon Corporation since 1969 to provide an opportunity for photographers around the world to communicate and to enrich image-making culture for professionals and amateurs alike. 

In the last 10 years, with the wide penetration of digital cameras with video capabilities, the environment surrounding image-making has dramatically changed. Adapting to this change, the 34th contest was reconceived, changing its name and its structure, and it continues to evolve to create new standards and provide new opportunities for discovery. 

Vision

The Nikon Photo Contest nurtures an aspirational community that supports photographers and filmmakers who wish to share important stories and influence the way people think through images.
