although you can doubt whether any CSC is currently really professional, Sony and Olympus are probably a little disappointed about this!

Well, Sony and Olympus might not be that disappointed after all, because they also won. It appears that the logic behind the TIPA Awards is if you have enough categories, everyone ends up a winner. In the CSC sector alone, there are four awards:
Best CSC Entry Level: Olympus Pen E-PL3
Best CSC Advanced: Panasonic Lumix GX1
Best CSC Expert: Sony Nex 7
Best CSC Pro: Fuji X-Pro1
And, I guess they do not consider the Leica M9P a CSC, since they gave it its Best Premium Camera award rather than any of the CSC awards.
Looks like marketing BS to me...

Wait, I just noticed that the E-M5 won the Best Compact System Camera category. Maybe Pentax is the only vendor not to get an award this year.
I have no doubt that some CSCs are professional.
