Nikon D200 Gathers Awards

By DSLRBlog Editors | Published August 22, 2006

Cameratown has pointed out how well Nikons D200 DSLR has done recently in the awards. While it has been the D80 getting all the fan attention, industry seems smitten with the D200!

The D200 digital SLR camera was designated European Camera of the Year 2006-2007, and the Nikon’s photo finishing software Capture NX was named European Photo Innovation of the Year 2006-2007. The D200 had already earned the Camera Grand Prix 2006 award from Japan’s Camera Press Club, as well as the Best D-SLR Expert Award 2006 from Europe’s Technical Image Press Association (TIPA), giving it a total of three major photo industry honors to date. Moreover, Capture NX has become the first Nikon software package to garner an EISA award.

The camera is a great piece of kit so very well deserved. Of course I am a fully paid up member of the Canon fanclub so too late to turn my head even something so pretty, heh.

Canon 30D Takes Top Ranking

By DSLRBlog Editors | Published March 30, 2006

DSLR Photography says the new 30D from Canon became the top selling DSLR in Japan last month, replacing the Nikon D200.

Unfortunately they don’t say where they get their figures from and it is only Japan they are tracking, but still it is good news for Canon. I am surprised really, the 30D seemed a bit ho-hum based purely on reports while the Nikon D200 by all accounts kicks ass. I wonder if these positions will switch once the initial launch purchases steady off…
