Hm, seems the TIPA is copying Bertram Paul: last year I choose the D300, so
does TIPA. Few months ago I choose D90, so does TIPA.
Darn copycats!
I'll make my own award: the BEPA award !

Hmm, seems that Bertram Paul is copying Focus/Sosumi, who also
chose the D300, followed by the D90, and who also post from the same
location. Small world, huh, copycat/sock puppet? :)

I see that Canon got five, and they didn't even bother to inform the
press about it.
But ofcourse, for Nikon, it's something special. :-P

1 SLR versus 2 Nikon. Like last year.
This time they won the Expert trophy: only experts know how to use it ;-)

Right, that's why Canon is advertising so many "awards" on their site?
Lamest: TIPA award of 2007 is getting a little stale, maybe?

One lens versus 0 Nikon. Good bodies are worthless without good
lenses. :-)

Where? I just glanced over the Global, EU, US and NL sites, but I don't
see any.
Not that it really matters; my response was just meant to be a joke
(noticed the smiley, sticking its tongue out at you and going
"nanananaaana"?). And I love the way you bite like a true fanboy.

TIPA awards never get stale. In 2005, Nikon got an award for their 200mm
F/2. And no matter how good it is, no matter how it beats the crap out of
the current competition, it will never get a new award. In fact, a new
lens with _less_ performance can get an award too, because it might be
the best product of its own introduction-year.
That's the reason why both Canon and Nikon get so many awards each year:
they simply introduce more new products than smaller competitors.
Really, 'cause it seems to me you're just being a fucking prick and adding
winky faces to pretend you're really a nice guy.

No, no! You got it all wrong!
I'm just a nice guy pretending to be an asshole.
To some. :-)

It is the same person, just trying to evade peoples killfiles.
Just edit your killfile to put the idiot in, then you'll never see his
posts again.
