Ronkonkoma, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - January 29, 2025) - SIGMA America is pleased to announce its sponsorship of the television series "View Finders" coming to nationwide PBS syndication in Spring 2025. The series, distributed by APT, follows the photographic journeys of co-hosts Chris Greer and Paul Daniel, as they explore and photograph beautiful scenery and landscapes throughout the United States. Two of the episodes will have their world premiere in Dallas, Texas during the Imaging USA trade show, which draws over 10,000 professional photographers each year.
SIGMA is the exclusive lens sponsor for the upcoming season, and all still photos and video footage captured by the co-hosts along with their camera operator Nathan Burnett - from Acadia National Park in Maine to the rugged landscapes of the Southwest and everywhere else along the way - was captured with SIGMA Art, Sports and Contemporary lenses*.
* With the exception of some drone footage
Producer and co-host Chris Greer explains that "View Finders is centered around the overall visual experience; and the SIGMA lenses consistently delivered stunning footage from every location, which we hope inspires our viewers to explore and photograph the country themselves. We are very excited to premiere these two episodes at Imaging USA in partnership with SIGMA."
View Finders: Grand Tetons National Park will be shown at 12:30PM CT on Monday, February 3, 2025 and View Finders: Acadia National Park will be shown at 12:30PM CT on Tuesday, February 4, 2025 at the PPA Theater at Longhorn Marble Foyer, Convention Center, Level 1.
