No why would I have a problem with anyone receiving a nice prize?  You 
obviously chose to ignore my first two sentences.

I'm just pointing out the irony of a *camera company* having "legendary"

It would be like a major auto manufacturer running a contest and instead of 
including an automobile as a prize, they give away owners manuals or 
hubcaps.
