The Press Photographers' Year competition will reward the best news images taken in 2011 and 2012, with 17 prizes awarded across a variety of categories such as News Folio of the Year to Sports Folio of the Year.

The organisers have also added the Multimedia and Digital Film for photographers who are working with video, and the Olympic Folio and Olympic Singles categories to celebrate the best images taken during the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The winning images, as well as the Photograph of the Year, will go on show in July and August at the National Theatre in London.
