The TIPA Awards 2007:
This year there's been quite a range of names topping the categories in the Technical Image Press Association awards - Nikon and Canon are head to head in the DSLR categories, whilst compacts cross a range of Fujifilm, Nikon, Panasonic and Ricoh.
The awards are as follows:
DSLR cameras:
Best D-SLR Entry Level: Nikon D40x
Best D-SLR Expert: Pentax K10D
Best D-SLR Professional: Canon EOS-1D Mark III
Digital compacts:
Best Ultra Compact Digital Camera: Fujifilm FinePix Z5fd
Best Compact Digital Camera: Nikon Coolpix P5000
Best Superzoom Digital Camera: Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3
Best Prestige Camera: Ricoh Caplio GX100
Good to see support for Ricoh - seem to an underlying force that keep releasing very effective cameras for the buck.
Otherwise no big surprises - Canon's EOS-1D mk III ruling the roost in the pro DSLR area.
