Sydney, 2 November 2011<\/strong>: With less than eight weeks till Christmas, Canon Australia announces its much anticipated Christmas campaign Canon Island<\/em> this week.<\/p>\n

Building on the success of its 2010 promotional activity, Canon is launching a creative brand experience offering consumers the chance to win a once-in-a-lifetime prize. Canon Island<\/em> is a first for Australia\u2019s Best Selling camera brand* and expects to significantly boost sales.

Canon shoppers purchasing $90 or more worth of Canon Australia and New Zealand products in one transaction can enter the prize draw – which will see the winners whisked away on an all expenses paid VIP trip to a yet to be revealed exotic Australian island. Entries can be made online via the Canon Australia website, www.canon.com.au\/canonisland<\/a>, Canon New Zealand website www.canon.co.nz\/en-NZ\/canonisland<\/a> or by scanning the QR code on the entry form.<\/p>\n

All 57 Australian winners plus their lucky guests will embark on an exclusive three day adventure on a mysterious island. <\/em>The trip will be jam-packed with awe-inspiring activities promising to take guests on an ultimate adventure; from exotic Arabian Nights to the deep sea exploration of an Underwater Paradise and a colourful Carnivale Circus.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHere at Canon, we want to inspire consumers to capture life\u2019s unforgettable moments but also reward them for choosing Canon.
