AFC Micro Salon show

The AFC Micro Salon will be held for the 23^rd time in the Hall de la Pinède du Parc Floral de Paris, on Thursday, 9^th February (10:00-21:00) and Friday, 10 February (10:00-18:00). Once again, this year’s Micro Salon will be combined with the AFC Postproduction Days. Registration is now open and we request that attendees if possible print their named admission badges before the event.

On 20 January, the Femmes à la Caméra collective opened AFC Events at Paris Images 2022 with a round-table discussion involving several female European cinematographers. The collective was also present for the entire duration of the event at their stand, which offered visitors the possibility of testing out several systems for optimizing the ergonomics of shoulder-carried cameras.

Following our “micro edition” in 2021, held online, and two years of waiting for its visitors and expositor associate members, the AFC is pleased to announce that its Micro Salon will once again be held at the Parc Floral de Paris from Thursday 20 January to Friday 21 January 2022. Two days for friendly meetings and technical discussions around the tools used to create film images.

Because of the current situation and at the request of our exhibitor partners, the AFC Micro Salon will not be held as initially planned next January at the Parc Floral. The AFC and its associate members hope to announce a new date for the 2021 Micro Salon this spring, depending on the public health situation, the intentions of the various parties involved, and the availability of the location.

One location, two days, three reasons to mark your agendas for AFC’s upcoming Micro Salon at the Parc Floral de Paris

• on Thursday, 16 January -10am to 22pm
• and Friday, 17 January - 10am to 18pm

Two days of good cheer, discussions, and knowledge dedicated to the tools used to create cinematographic images.

The 19^th annual Micro Salon, held on 8 and 9 February 2019, made a decisive change, which had been in the works for the past two to three years, and moved to the Parc Floral de Paris. There, a massive open space awaited it, which allowed for easier set-up, a design that made visiting more pleasant for attendees, and large meeting spaces where conviviality, one of our event’s hallmarks, went hand-in-hand with equipment presentation and screenings of images, the creation of which is the principal subject of interest of all in attendance.

Viva Indian Cinematography. That’s the title chosen by ISC, (Indian Society of Cinematographers) to happily announce on their Facebook page that AFC, the French Society of Cinematographers, have invited India as the Guest Country at the Micro Salon happening in Paris on 27^th January 2017, with official invitations sent to ISC, WICA (Western Indian Society of Cinematographers) & SICA (Southern Indian Cinematographers Association) .

For better or for worse, the 17^th annual Micro Salon was in the spirit of the times: the number of visitors at this year’s Micro Salon shrank. In the eyes of our partners with stands at the event this was a positive thing (although our sister-organizations on the other hand are always trying to reach a broader audience). The reason? Quite simple: fewer visitors means more quality time for discussion with the exhibitors!

Having now reached the age of sixteen, the AFC Micro Salon is now in its best years! Mission accomplished once again, as the four levels of La fémis presented the skills and innovations of fifty-six of our attending associate members to the over 2,650 guests who attended the event.

K5600 always believed in being close to the end-users and participating in exhibitions and Festivals is a great opportunity to exchange information and ideas. This often leads to new ideas for new products. The new Alpha 800W was born from some of these discussions over the years.

The French cinematographic community has always displayed a keen interest in both the technological and artistic aspects of cinema, especially with many renowned French equipment manufacturers and cinematographers having a successful history in exporting their technologies and talents across the worldwide stage.
