Shot on CAMON, a global photography contest is shining a spotlight on real and ordinary life. The Shot on CAMON contest, organized by TECNO in partnership with Amateur Photographer, invited people around the world to capture everyday moments using the TECNO CAMON 40 Series. 

A Global Contest with Real Moments

The contest received thousands of entries from different countries. It focuses on real life, not staged scenes. The goal is to preserve moments that are often missed. People were asked to capture the rhythm of daily life, human connection, and movement in their surroundings.

Theme 1: Snap Every Pulse

The first theme is about finding the rhythm of life. It encourages observation, not orchestration. Highlighted moments include a boy lifting water toward the setting sun, a street band playing in a neighborhood, and a pirate ship ride holding a breath in mid-air. The message is that pulse is about seeing something clearly, even if only once.

Theme 2: Snap All Fleeting Bonds

The second theme is about connection. It shows how powerful small, intimate moments can be. Examples include a hand held in another, a parent and child on a swing ride, and a girl looking at her cat. It highlights how intimacy is about recognition, not just physical closeness.

Theme 3: Snap Any Motion

The third theme focuses on movement. It captures energy through still images. Submissions include a cyclist in evening light, reflections shaping a scene, and a leap frozen mid-air. The theme shows how motion can stay alive even in a single frame.

Big Rewards for Winners

The contest ended on September 30, 2025. The total prize pool is $37,000, with a $10,000 grand prize. Selected winners will join a special photo tour in London. Their work will also be shown in global exhibitions, featured in TECNO’s annual photo book, and displayed on TECNO’s official platforms.

Global Creative Stage

“Everyone has the potential to create, to view the world in new ways, and to share that vision,” said Laury Bai, TECNO CMO. The Shot on CAMON contest seeks to showcase emerging creative voices on a global stage. While the winners are yet to be announced, this first wave of outstanding entries already offers a glimpse of the talent, with the award-winning works set to be revealed soon.
