Focus x Sony x Nanlite: The Makers Experience
Where Vision Meets Precision


Join Focus Camera, Sony, and Nanlite for an immersive evening of creativity at MakerSpace Studios, located within the iconic Brooklyn Army Terminal, on May 20th.

Step into a dynamic, hands-on experience designed for photographers and creators of all levels. Explore and shoot with the latest Sony Alpha cameras and lenses across a series of curated environments—each intentionally built to showcase the power, speed, and precision of Sony’s imaging technology in real-world scenarios.

Each set will be professionally lit by Nanlite, allowing you to work within fully realized lighting environments and experience how advanced lighting and Sony’s camera systems come together to shape the final image.

Throughout the evening, Sony specialists will be on-site, offering hands-on guidance, shooting tips, and workflow insights—giving you direct access to expert knowledge as you test and create.

Capture compelling content as local NYC artisans demonstrate their craft—working with metal, wood, textiles, and ceramics—offering rich, tactile subjects filled with depth, motion, and storytelling.

Expand your shooting experience with additional environments, including styled setups within shared studio spaces and professionally lit stations.

Attendees will also have access to exclusive event-only savings on Sony gear, and the first 40 guests will receive a complimentary 64GB memory card (first come, first served).

Whether you’re looking to expand your portfolio, experiment with new gear, or connect with fellow creatives, this event offers a unique blend of inspiration, education, and community.

Secure your spot today and don’t miss this one-of-a-kind opportunity to capture, create, and connect.
