Anyone understand this accolade? It's not "product of the year" or "high-end camera of the year"?

Nope. I couldn't see what it meant either. Nice to get an award but otherwise...

it is the "How do we appease the readers who aren't stupid enough to let us ignore this product, while not pissing Canon off and losing our ad sales, so we need to invent a new category for this product and let Canon win the "Camera of the year award" trophy we promised them" award...

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.
