FUJIFILM Philippines Holds Female Photography Talks Series on Women's Month

Women are now often described as "empowered" and "successful." Thankfully, we no longer stay in the background because many of us have found our voices, chosen careers we excel in, and involve ourselves in activities fueled by passion and curiosity. All these allow us to inspire other women to also lead meaningful and purpose-driven lives.

FUJIFILM X-A2 Circle of Influencers

This March, FUJIFILM Philippines celebrates Women's Month with a series of female photography talks. Dubbed Click to Chic, the workshop was launched yesterday at Oakwood Premier in Ortigas with the aim to help aspiring female photographers learn how to maximize their FUJIFILM cameras, especially the X-A2.

Present during the March 2 event were model and host Janeena Chan, lifestyle and travel blogger Camie Juan, and young celebrity Miles Ocampo. All young ladies own an X-A2 camera and gushed about how much they love taking photos with it. These members of the X-A2 Circle of Influencers shared basic photography skills and practical tips on how to best use the camera in beauty, travel, and lifestyle photography.

According to them, FUJIFILM X-A2 is the best fashion accessory to highlight a phographer's total look. Armed with a wide range of functions that deliver simple operation and picture-taking power, the X-A2's Super Intelligent Flash or IFlash automatically delivers the ideal amount of flash for every scene, clearly and brightly capturing faces even under strong backlit or dark conditions to make skin tone look smoother.

Camie said she became convinced of the A-X2's potentials when she saw someone who owns an X-A2 take macro shots of food. She described that at extreme closeups, dishes look more appetizing and expertly shot. Moreover, macro shots under dim lighting are compensated by the IFlash which prevents washing out the subject and background.

As to quickly sharing photos online, this camera enables users to easily highlight up to 30 images for transfer to a smartphone so you can post them immediately. Janeena acknowledged how useful this feature is for someone like her who regularly cross-posts images in her social media channels.

Miles, on the other hand, shared with us a slide presentation showing the beautiful shots she has taken using her X-A2. A delight to watch, the bubbly young star often interjected her talk with funny side comments that had us all laughing.

With 80 years experience in photographic film manufacturing behind it, FUJIFILM believes in the power and influence of women to see and capture things of beauty and milestones through a camera's lens. According to FUJIFILM's Maan dela Cruz, "For the longest time, photography has been male-dominated. It's time to highlight the creativity of women."
