Five Canon products were selected for this year’s “Best Photo and Imaging Product” awards by the Technical Image Press Association (TIPA), representing 28 photography and imaging magazines from 15 countries across five continents.

The five award-winning products are: the EOS 6D digital SLR (DSLR) camera, the EOS 100D (EOS Rebel SL1 in the Americas)  DSLR camera,  the EOS-1D C DSLR cinema  camera,  the EF24-70mm f/2.8L II USM interchangeable lens, and the PIXMA PRO-10 inkjet printer.

Canon’s reliable image product lines are widely used in Vietnam. For years, Canon has hold the largest share of the DSLR camera market in Vietnam. As of March 2013, its market share in the DSLR sector is 53.4 per cent. Canon’s leading position in Vietnam is mirrored elsewhere with the company maintaining a No.1 share worldwide for a ten-year period from 2003 to 2012.

Celebrating Canon’s triumph at the TIPA awards – its 19th consecutive year of success at the prestigious event, Nick Yoshida, president and CEO of Canon Marketing Vietnam said: “We are very proud because these awards show that Canon image products are reliable and meet the needs of consumers both worldwide and in Vietnam as well. These awards also prove that our innovative technology is producing the best image quality and the most interesting experience for users. Canon is committed to continue its efforts to nurture a love of photography within the community.”

Held every year since 1991, the TIPA Awards recognise the best photo and  imaging products announced during the previous 12 months based on such criteria as innovativeness, use of leading-edge technologies, design, and ease of use.  In 1992, Canon took home its first TIPA accolade for the EOS 100 SLR camera and, over 21  separate occasions since then, has been honoured with TIPA awards for a total of 65 products and technologies. This year also marks the company’s 19th year in a row to be a recipient of a TIPA award.
