Leading global technology company, OPPO, has launched the 2024 edition of the OPPO imagine IF Photography Awards, its global competition for mobile photography.
The annual event targets smartphone photographers and features nine entry categories, covering Landscape, Portrait, Colours, Unfading Moment, Fashion, Snapshot, Light, Travel, and Collection. Each category aims to inspire users to share their most compelling stories and emotions captured through the lens of OPPO smartphones. This year’s competition features a world-class judging panel including Steve McCurry, one of the most iconic figures in contemporary photography, together with National Geographic Photographer Michael Yamashita, Hasselblad Master Tina Signesdottir Hult and Magnum Photos member Alec Soth.
Entrants will be competing for prizes that include a grand prize of USD 24,000 for the winner of the OPPO imagine IF Master (Gold Award) plus the opportunity to showcase their entries at international exhibition such as Paris Photo and sign with OPPO to become an OPPO Photographer with priority access to special events. Four OPPO Silver Awards, ten OPPO Bronze Awards and five Youth Special Awards will also be on offer, alongside four Honourable Mentions in each of the nine categories. Winners across all categories will receive generous prize money, the latest OPPO devices, as well as opportunities for international exposure. OPPO also runs a number of events to provide participants with opportunities to engage with some of the world’s top photographers, learn new photography skills and discuss the latest ideas in mobile imaging with peers.
