Original text in German:

Schon bei der letzten photokina konnten mit dieser Konzeptanpassung wichtige Neuaussteller gewonnen werden. Auch der Anteil jüngerer Besucher ist seit zwei Veranstaltungen konstant gestiegen. Die Aufmerksamkeit für die photokina ist ungebrochen groß, ebenso wie die Vorfreude vieler Besucher und Aussteller auf die photokina 2020. „Wir freuen uns über eine starke Nachfrage und Anmeldungen aus den neuen sowie den klassischen Segmenten von Unternehmen wie unter anderem Canon, CEWE, GoPro, Sony, Panasonic, Kodak Alaris, Sigma, Tamron, Carl Zeiss, Hasselblad, Hahnemühle, Arri, Rode Mikrophones, DJI und Insta360“, so Christoph Werner, Geschäftsbereichsleiter der Koelnmesse. Dem gegenüber stehen Absagen unter anderem von Leica, Nikon und Olympus.
