D7000 (Silver Award) & T2i (Gold Award) in Mid Range Category

Dec 1, 2010

Dpreview now classifies both of these cameras as Mid Range DSLRs. The Canon got a Gold Award with 77 points while the D7000 gets a Silver Award with 80 points. Can anyone from dpreview explain the reasoning behind these awards?
