Although Cannon probably sells a lot of photography equipment to journalists, according to a www.news.com article, they made some of these loyal customers very angry when the NFL made it mandatory for photojournalists to wear a red vest with the Cannon logo on it for "security" reasons.

The NFL claimed that the logo was just a representation of the financial support of Cannon, but the photographers objected to being forced to become walking (and photographing) advertisements for Cannon. The claim is clear on that one; if you're a professional photographer and you're walking around with a Cannon logo on your chest, people MIGHT make a connection between the two.

The image above also illustrated how Cannon is also involved in other forms of questionable advertising. This ad shows professional photographers using lenses on the end of the white lens hoods. There shouldn't be lenses on the end of lens hoods; that negates the purpose of the hood. Here's another photo that's un-altered to compare:

So they used these photographers for an ad, and then altered the photo, implicating the photographers in their rather unethical statement.

It's interesting to see a company whose credibility is based on their savvy about images, using images so carelessly. They're using these images to make claims that are false.
