Amateur Photographer Magazine

Before we meet each magazine submits its shortlist of products for each category. When we come together we discuss the nominations and agree on a winner. This year, in fact, there was not much discussion, as in most categories the winners were obvious. I vote according to the tests we have performed, but I am only one of 16 judges. Not all the awards reflect in opinions of the AP tech team, but we are very happy with the outcome of all of the categories.

It sounds as if it would be quite interesting. Do you all meet up prior to the awards to discuss things with cameras on hand or is it done at a distance? (e-mail/phone etc)

Do you find that different countries place a different emphasis on the various qualities of a camera. The UK IMO is very much geared towards DSLR's, most people I imagine would aspire to own a Pro camera such as the 'Full Frame'/FX models or one of the Pro/Semi Pro models such as a 40D/D300/E-3/K20D/a700. Difficult to explain what I mean but take the example of motorcycles, the UK market is pretty much geared towards Sportsbikes (R1, Blade, GSXR) while some of our European friends are geared more towards Trailbikes or Tourers?
