With an assortment of new recording devices emerging every day, you could strap on a Gopro to your forehead, go to the Manhattan super store B&H and film every camera there. On you could wander around blogging on your iPhone and still only see a fraction of the new devices and software available each day.
There is an alternative that might offer far more updates in one short four-day period. That is The PDN PhotoPlus Expo and Conference (running from Oct. 29 - Nov. 1, 2014) at New York's Jacob Javits Center (655 W 34th St, NY NY) which brings together the latest emerging photography equipment, software and users alike.
Attendees range across a landscape of over an expected 22,000 photography experts, professionals, teachers, students, and enthusiasts, to see a wide range of exhibits and experience over 80 conferences.
Photoplus is the perfect event for those looking to learn and for experts to network with their peers. Hands on seminars let you try some of the latest technology and discussions demo how to use the array of equipment and digital tools.
The following are among the many companies with booths:
- Hasselblad
- Leica
- Olympus
- Nikon
- Canon

Speakers include street photographer Martin Parr and musician Ben Folds. As part of A Day Without News, David Friend, Lynsey Addario, Santiago Lyon, Ron Haviv, and Antonio Bolfo will sit on the keynote panel on photojournalists who have been harmed, kidnapped, or killed covering dangerous world events.
