Canon Australia is today celebrating a massive win - five of its products were recognised with “Best Product 2010” awards by the prestigious Technical Image Press Association (TIPA).

TIPA is represented by  29 photography and imaging magazines across 13 European countries.

The five award-winning products included the imagePROGRAF iPF6350 large-format inkjet printer.

“Winning these prestigious TIPA awards highlights Canon’s unique position as a market leader in both image capture and output,” said Darren Ryan, General Manager, Product Marketing – Consumer, Canon Australia. “We’re humbled to achieve such a broad sweep given the unprecedented level of competition in the market. Canon’s continued global commitment to high investment in R&D continues to deliver us a great portfolio of market-leading products. This combined with our focus on understanding the consumer deeply and developing value-adding relationships with the trade will see Canon maintain our leadership in the camera and printer categories.”

The TIPA jury awarded the Canon imagePROGRAF iPF6350 with “Best Large Format Printer in 2010”. Featuring Canon’s new proprietary twelve-ink LUCIA EX system in combination with newly developed image processing technology and a colour calibration function, the judges felt that the iPF6350 was “built to fulfil the demands of professional users for sophisticated print quality”.

Winners of TIPA’s European Photo & Imaging Awards are selected annually from among the photo and imaging products announced in Europe during the previous 12 months. Canon products have been recognised for excellence with multiple awards spanning both capture and output devices. An awards ceremony for the 2010 winners will be held on September 21 during this year’s Photokina fair in Cologne, Germany.
