How do we pronounce the camera company name "Canon"?

Solution 1:

I believe it's pronounced like "cannon". As in a cannon that shoots cannonballs. Here's an example of its usage.

Solution 2:

It's usually pronounced the same as the English word "canon", i.e. /ˈkanən/.

Canon is a Japanese company, and their name in Japanese is pronounced kiyanon, but they seem to prefer the English pronunciation in their advertising, even in Japan.
