European Professional Camera 2009-2010 -> Nikon D3x
Nikon D3x with its ultra-high 24.4 million-pixel resolution and full frame imaging sensor, the Nikon D3X is a dream for the professional photographer who mixes studio assignments with fast moving dynamic subjects outdoors. The D3X is capable of an image quality that previously could only be achieved with medium format cameras fitted with digital backs, but it has much faster autofocus, continuous shooting rates plus it can be used at sensitivities of up to ISO 6400 with astonishingly good results. With an enormous range of features the D3X is a top-class modern pro-camera that offers total control over the image, from the moment of composition in the large viewfinder to the output of a ready-to-use digital file.European Advanced Camera 2009-2010 -> Canon EOS 5D Mark II
The Canon EOS 5D Mark II is a worthy successor of the EOS 5D. The principle features remain the same: a full-frame sensor in a relatively compact body, but Canon has added extra professional features such as sealing against the ingress of dust and moisture and functions like Live View, sensor cleaning and a 1080p HD-movie mode. Despite the increased resolution of 21 million pixels, Canon has been able to reduce noise levels to below those of the 5D, which is a great achievement.European Camera 2009-2010 -> Olympus PEN E-P1
The Olympus PEN E-P1 is an elegant camera with an appealing retro design. The camera utilises the new mirror- and prism-less Micro Four Thirds system, which allows the E-P1 to be very compact and lightweight. Besides the compact Micro Four Thirds lenses, users can fit existing Four Thirds, OM and Leica M mount lenses to the body via an adaptor. As the sensor is larger than that found in compact cameras better image quality and lower noise levels can be achieved. The camera doesn’t have a viewfinder but the LCD provides a clear view even in bright conditions.European SLR Camera 2009-2010 -> Canon EOS 500D
The Canon EOS 500D is an excellent DSLR for both novices and advanced amateur photographers alike. The camera provides extra versatility via its good Live View system, and the large and high resolution LCD monitor.

European Photo Printer 2009-2010 -> Canon PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II
As the quality of digital cameras accelerates in detail and colour reproduction so the demands on desktop printers increases. Photographers need improved accuracy, speed and convenience, and Canon’s PIXMA Pro9000 Mark II A3+ inkjet printer delivers all three. With 48-bit processing this updated model is able to reproduce a much wider range of colours, and allows photographers to print raw files directly from Canon’s DPP raw conversion software package. A minimum ink droplet size of 2pl ensures even the finest detail is rendered accurately, while providing the potential to produce much smoother tonal and colour transitions.European Digital Imaging Innovation 2009-2010 -> Fujifilm Super CCD EXR
Fujifilm’s new Super CCD EXR sensor has been designed to adjust its behaviour according to the conditions in which it is being used so it can deliver the user the best quality for any situation. The sensor has three different shooting modes that can be either selected manually by the user or left to the camera to automatically choose which suits the occasion. In high resolution (HR) mode the sensor uses all its 12 million pixels to render the finest details of the scene, while a high sensitivity (SN) mode it uses pixel-coupling technology to produce images with low noise levels in very low light conditions. A further high dynamic range (DR) mode combines two exposures to deal with high contrast situations.
