DIWA Awards Gold Medal to Hewlett-Packard
The Digital Imaging Websites Assoc. (DIWA) has awarded HP a Gold Medal in recognition of their excellent Photosmart R707 digital camera. To quote the full DIWA press release:- "Thanks to 5 Megapixels resolution and innovative HP technologies, like Adaptive Lighting, Adaptive Demosaic, Vignetting and Shading Correction, and Noise Filter, the overall image quality is very impressive for the camera’s price tag."
DIWA Welcomes Its 12th Member Site
DIWA Awards is proud to announce its 12th member website: PhotographyBLOG, a pan-European site, presently located in London and Paris.
PhotographyBLOG was started in January 2003 by UK photographer Mark Goldstein and has quickly grown to become one of the premier sources of photography news on the Internet. The main purpose of PhotographyBLOG is to report all the photography news, as it happens. Reviews are also a fundamental part of the site, with detailed reports on digital and film cameras, printers, software and other photography products. PhotographyBLOG has a very popular photo Gallery, Forum, User Reviews database and Portfolios section, as well as running regular photo competitions and prize giveaways. From being a small personal weblog about photography, PhotographyBLOG is now a vibrant community with a large amount of subscribers.
Although PhotographyBLOG originated as a news website, it is now increasingly focusing on product reviews and tests. Joining an international organisation like DIWA is indeed an inspiration for Mark and his team, as they now establish themselves in Paris.
