Internet is packed with websites that do more or less trustworthy product tests. Often, pure coincidence decides which products will end up as winners and losers, obviously annoying both manufacturers and consumer organisations. Therefore, Panasonic pay visits to many testing facilities around the world, to see if their equipment and testing procedures meet a satisfying quality level. This week, Panasonic representatives paid DIWA member DigIT a visit. DIWA Labs is located in Norway. For more information about DIWA Awards.

The PMA show, or Photo Marketing Association, continues its yearly tradition of maintaining a network of photo imaging as well as the experience and know-how of the industry. The PMA represents 20,000 members from over 100 countries, who are all active within the imaging industry. As a reflection of the changes in the market, the PMA organization has also changed and has become more diverse. Nowadays, the member group consists of representatives coming from photo retail, manufacturers, commercial photo labs, professional sports and news photography, in addition to small album print suppliers and photo processing centers. The PMA 2010 Trade show focuses on an industry which is heavily affected by the unstable situation of the global financial economy. However, whether the latter will also stand in the way of the innovation and product introductions, remains to be revealed by the 2010 PMA International Convention & Trade Show in Anaheim Convention Center (California, US).
