Photographers Rights in Canada and the United States
It's not news that photographers have been being harassed for the simple act of taking photos in public. ZAPRAG helps educate both photographers and consumers on the rights of photographers
Online, September 27, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Just Released - the first of the ZAPRAG line of educational products to help educate photographs and the public to the rights of photographs taking photos in public.
The first in a series of products is the ZAPRAG lens cleaning cloth, a function high quality microfiber lens cleaning cloth imprinted with the photographers' rights. ZAPRAG currently has Canadian and U.S. versions available, with the UK version almost complete. Versions for other countries are in production. Lawyers, in each respected country were consulted, to insure the information is correct and up-to-date. The cloth itself is not only an educational adjunct, always on hand when you're out photographing, buts also a fully functional lens cleaning cloth - safe for lenses, eyeglasses, I-phones etc.
Complementing this line of products, ZAPRAG have also produced a series of laminated informational cards, ZAPCARDs, containing the photographers' rights pertinent to each country. This double-sided card is laminated and comes with a 'break-free' lanyard.
Items will prove useful to photographers when they find themselves confronted by security guards, and other persons questioning their right to take photos in public. Items are available on the website or from select photography retailers. Look for additional countries in the very near future.
"Know your rights and educate those that don't."
