 Launched last month, the new Cyber-shot V1 has now been honoured with a prestigious Technical Image Press Association (TIPA) Award for ?Best Digital Prosumer Camera’ at the recent TIPA European Photo & Imaging Awards 2003-2004. It certainly hasn’t taken the DSC-V1 long to win the respect of one of Europe’s most influential press titles. This award for the camera is a powerful recognition of its quality, performance and value. “We are really pleased and excited with this important accolade” Said Akihiro Nishikawa, Vice President, Sony Digital Imaging Europe. TIPA is Europe’s largest independent organisation of photo imaging magazines and the awards are voted for by editors from over thirty top titles in twelve European countries."
