[QUOTE="The Feedster, post: 510888, member: 259515"] Nikon executives will no doubt be feeling jolly pleased with themselves after Nikon came top in two of the most prestigious categories at the annual [URL="http://www.tipa.com/awa_2008.lasso"]Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) awards[/URL]. Topping the ‘Best DSLR – Expert’ category was Nikon’s flagship, full-frame [URL="http://www.techradar.com/products/cameras-and-camcorders/cameras/digital-slrs/nikon-d3-201434/review"]D3[/URL] model. The judges deemed that the camera was a “milestone” for Nikon that offers “incredible” low-light performance – even at when used at ISO 6400. The judges also praised its nine-frames-per second. Nikon also scooped top prize in the ‘Best DSLR – Professional’ category, with its [URL="http://www.techradar.com/products/cameras-and-camcorders/cameras/digital-slrs/nikon-d300-211151/review"]D300[/URL] model. Noting its “solid design, excellent handing and robust build quality” the judges went on to praise the “fast, responsive autofocus system” and “stunning results” it is capable of producing. [B]Best advanced DSLR[/B] Despite seeing their nearest rival take top honours it wasn’t all bad news for Canon as their recently launched [URL="http://www.techradar.com/products/cameras-and-camcorders/cameras/digital-slrs/canon-450d-301270/review"]EOS 450D[/URL] (known as the ‘Rebel XSi’ in some markets) claimed top honours in the lucrative ‘Best DSLR – Advanced’ category, no doubt at the expense of Nikon’s recently released [URL="http://www.techradar.com/products/cameras-and-camcorders/cameras/digital-slrs/nikon-d60-261481/review"]D60[/URL] model. Sony can also be pleased with the good showing by their Alpha range with their [URL="http://www.techradar.com/news/photography-video-capture/cameras/hands-on-sony-alpha-a200-dslr-184985"]Alpha 200[/URL] winning ‘Best DSLR – Entry-level’. * Elsewhere, there were wins for Samsung, Panasonic and Fuji in the ‘Ultra-compact’, ‘Compact’ and ‘Superzoom’ categories respectively.
