Photography Monthly's first ever Test Zone Awards saw Litepanels come out a winner in the 'Light of my Life Award' category.

The slightly quirky approach to an award ceremony was intended as the magazine's way of 'offering recognition and encouragement to manufacturers responding to our needs with the kind of innovative photographic equipment that allows and encourages us to take better images.'

The Micro LED light won the day for Litepanels and the results were innovatively reported via a Christmas Special Test Zone Awards 2009 podcast. To listen to the full podcast just visit: www.photographymonthly.com

There will also be an 8-page feature in the February issue of Photography Monthly which unveils all the winners.

"Everyone likes to get some recognition for something they believe they did well. The first Test Zone Awards may have a few quirky categories that make you chuckle, but rest assured, we take recommending kit and awarding prizes very seriously," said the magazine's Editor.
