Das ist wohl mein erstes Mal als Ausstellungsobjekt: Unter Kopfhörer 4 kann man mir lauschen, wie ich 2020 im Radio über das Ende der Photokina sprach. Weit interessanter ist aber der Rest der Ausstellung „Stimmen der Zeit“, die Koch bis zum 4.1.2026 im Museum Folkwang zu hören und zu sehen ist! /1

Ah, used to go there for Photokina back in the day. When everyone dressed like a ZDF anchor.

Auffer Photokina damals:
Model in Latex auf Bühne vor hunderten männlichen und zwei weiblichen FotografInnen. Moderator macht lange Ansage das es ja um *aesthetik* und *körperformen* geht und *sinnlichkeit*.
Sicher, darum geht es auch, aber wie da verbal eiergetanzt wurde nur um BLOS um den fetisch

'Lieblingsoutfit'
Am liebsten in Jeans und T-Shirt. (Mir fehlt leider ein Bild vom photokina-Shirt.) Das schöne T-Shirt in türkis hat mir K1 vom Ende der Welt mitgebracht.

Wait wut? Ok, I’ll have to explore that starting tomorrow.

Wahrscheinlich bin ich der einzige, der so Großveranstaltungen wie die Photokina total vermisst. Man hat sich Monate vorher schon drauf gefreut. Mit Freunden/Bekannten verabredet. Dort getroffen, sich ausgetauscht über die gleichen Interessen. Viel gesehen und gelernt. Das ist leider Nostalgie.

I must wonder if any of us realises how many Africans speak Russian fluently.

My chill revelation was at a PhotoKina, decades ago, when I overheared an entire delegation of Africans, visiting a Russian boot, fluently conversating in Russian.

Military-wise: the largest concentration of RU gear

Footage from the phone of a neutralized Russian soldier.

A different angle of the same dance by African “black-Russians” serving in the ranks of the Russian Armed Forces — previously published back in December last year. The screenshot shows the "200th" operator of this video.

Let’s hope Bild Three continues to capture the same magic and becomes a Photokina of the West.

Most of the shows in the EU allow alcohol all day on the show floor, many (depending on what hall most) of the stands have beer machines at IBC & Photokina.

Great to see you can make it Dave, although I did still manage to clash with Photokina, so a certain jet-setter or two sadly can't make it this time !

Imaging World is a new fall event in Europe, born from the formerly b-to-B only event Ringfoto - Die Fotomesse. The event will take place Oct 10 - 12, 2025, at the Nuernberg Messe. With an innovative concept and following the motto “Create. Explore. Have Fun.”, the event is aimed at photo and video enthusiasts of all levels – from end consumers to professional retailers. The event is looking to fill the gap following the collapse of Photopia Hamburg and the demise of Photokina. As a truly central event for the imaging industry, it brings together RINGFOTO retailers, photo and video manufacturers, end consumers, influencers, content creators, and the media.

👉 Ausgezeichnet
👉 Lieblingsausflug ist schwer zu isolieren, aber Schulaustausch im Jahr 1973 mit Realschule Brake u. Weser, einschließlich Skiausflug im Harz, sicherlich ein Highlight. Arbeitet auch bei Photokina, CeBIT & PaperWorld zur Unterstützung der Polaroid GmbH.

I’m about to text some of my people in the know for real world feedback.

I remember seeing the GFX50R and loving it until I saw how much of a VHS tape it was in person. That was a fun Photokina.

Panasonic to Launch New Fixed-Lens Camera Soon, Reports State
As the CP+ Show is filling in the gap left behind by the closure of Photokina, there are several new reports about camera manufacturers and which regions and age groups have made the most profit. There is also now a discussion about the future direction some camera companies wish to take, and an example of that is Panasonic. Per new reports, it appears the company is looking to expand its fixed-lens camera market in the near future. Here's what the company had to say.

Το 2008 ο Olbinski είχε μια ατομική έκθεση με τίτλο "Olbinski - photokina Expo" για τη Hewlett Packard (Κολωνία, Γερμανία). Το 2009 είχε μια μεγάλη μουσειακή έκθεση στο The Jule Collins Smith Museum στο Auburn με τίτλο «New Dreams of Old Values».

A story @behindthebluemotel.com might get a kick out of:
When he was the sales mgr at KEH, my dad went to Photokina (85?) with the GM and King Grant. There was also a car show in Köln.

GM says "When we hit X mil in sales, I want one of those V12 BMWs."

King: "I'd rather get the V12 Mercedes."

The opposite/antipode is also true.
Many many moons ago, on the PhotoKina in Cologne/Germany, I got a haunting chill, realising the african visitors next to me were talking fluently Russian.
That very moment, I also understood the fear SA'ns had, for all the USSR military gear north of their border.
One peculiar aspect of Russian social structure is that the ruling elite has tons of "Historian Orientalist/Africanist" majors in it, usually with good language fluency. That is because the Oriental Studies departments have been a major recruiting pool for the KGB/FSB.
