PMA 2008 Marks a Year of Value and Feature Enhancements for Photographers

Welcome to Cameratown's PMA 2008 Tradeshow Coverage. Like in previous years, Cameratown will be bringing you the latest product news and releases as well as Photo Booth tours direct from the show floor. Our live coverage begins on January 31, 2008 but pre-coverage has already began as many companies have already pre-announced products for the show.

PMA 08 covers all segments of the photo imaging industry. Whether your business involves retailing, processing, professional school photography, professional picture framing, scrapbooking, sports and event photography or wedding and event videography, the opportunity for you to learn is unlimited. Education comes from attending any of the 200-plus sessions offered within the pre-convention and convention programs, as well as from learning about the latest technology by visiting more than 600 exhibitors on the more than 12-acre trade show floor. Last year over 20,900 people attended PMA with 683 exhibitors, taking up over 730,800 sq. ft. of floor space.
