There are some video boards that include shills who immediately attack Sony products and lead the memebers to Canon, Panasonic, or Red products.
I've never noticed any of this with Sony or JVC products. No one pushes Sony or JVC products there.
Sony employees, even contract personnel, are not allowed to post on the boards.
Panasonic top marketing people in the past came constantly to certain boards to promote their cameras, which were suppoosed to be revolutionary and superior to Sony cameras, although it always turned out that it was not true. One of Panasonic's top marketing people , a woaman, came out to several boards to repeatedly say that their camera is superior to Sony's, even months before the camera was released. When it was released, this practice continued, although the camera was inferior.
There is a major board, where the main poster gets paid from Panasonic on unrelated business.
There is another board, where the owner gets paid by Canon on unrelated business.
Canon makes a video camera with sony processors and chips and it has the same resolution as a less expensive Sony camera, still the board owner comes on the board constantly to "rectify" posters, stating that the Canon is better. If you do not agree, you are banned from the site.
The worst sites are Reduser, which promotes Red cameras and DVXuser, which promotes Panasonic cameras. They are both owned by the same man. Go to Cinematography.com and check what real cinamatographers have to say about Red cameras. These people call them a joke, although even this board is full of Red shills. You find Red cameras in the High definition section there.
Does one wonder, who nominated the Canon "pretty" boy from DP Review for PMA award? Canon? Nikon?
A900 is a real photographers camera. Still the DP boy had the nerve to give it "just" in its rating and suggested that it should be selling for $2K.
DP tested advanced P&S cameras and in all tests Sony came in on the top, with Canon and Panasonic. it never mentioned other superior Sony features, like high speed focus. Olympus came out in the main categories in the bottom. Still it made the Recommended rating, wheras Sony received no rating.
The way Barry was attacking Sony from the beginning on DP was truly unbelievable. He made some real enemies. Only that made him stop. He did not even own Sony DSLR at that time.
The boards are generally a very crooked business. I congratulate owners of this site to keep it honest.
If someone objets to what I am saying here, I have real life examples, names, etc.

I have had freebies off of only one company, and that is unrelated, AMD sent me some free stuff, but don't get too worked up, T shirt and notepads, folder etc. Nothing mind blowing..but hey, I didn't complain, I got that as I am a registered channel partner..
