Why it worked
The video leverages a common interest among photographers (lenses) and encourages community engagement by asking users to share their work. The use of a recognizable brand like Canon also likely contributed to its reach.

Product placement
Canon 50: ACTS - it is a camera lens that is shown and held up to the camera, implying it is the subject of the video. Removing it would change what happens in the video. Norman Camera: APPEARS - it is a store name visible on the background and on the employee's badge. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.
