The Canon EOS 1100D offers a great way for beginners to get into the world of digital-SLR photography, without needing to sell a lung. Its build quality could be better, though. Read more

Nikon D40 review

The D40 has been designed to be easy to master -- you don't need to be a photographic genius -- but it also has enough functionality to satisfy those wanting to take their hobby further. We think the image quality from the 6.1-megapixel sensor will astonish those used to compact cameras Read more

Olympus E-450 review

The 10-megapixel E-450 makes a number of subtle but welcome improvements over its predecessor, the E-420, and, as a result, is a worthwhile entry-level digital SLR. Offering good picture quality, comfortable handling and diminutive dimensions, it's a strong contender if you're looking to step up from a compact Read more

Pentax K-m review

Will Pentax's newest attempt at challenging its rivals, Canon and Nikon, work? Rod Lawton introduces us to the 10-megapixel K-m, a digital camera designed specifically with beginners in mind.

Pentax K-x review

The entry-level, 12.4-megapixel K-x digital SLR is zippy, delivers good photo quality and is one of the few cameras in its price range to offer 720p video-capture capability. It's not without its downsides, such as unreliable image stabilisation, but it's a flexible, budget dSLR that delivers Read more

Nikon D5000 review

A long-awaited replacement for the D80, the D5000 brings significant new features to the entry-level dSLR. With a CMOS sensor, a flip-down-and-swivel LCD, an improved AF system and a fancy interactive display, there's plenty to like about it, especially with the quality of photos it produces Read more

Canon EOS 450D review

The Canon EOS 450D delivers hands-down, best-in-class photo quality. Its colour accuracy, dynamic range and consistently good noise clearly put this 12-megapixel model in front of the pack, even though its features and design do little to impress. It's certainly worth the price hike over its rivals Read more

Canon EOS 1000D review

The Canon EOS 1000D reflects the narrowing gap between compacts and digital SLRs. With its lightweight build and 10.1-megapixel CMOS sensor, the dSLR is an unintimidating camera. Will its compact-style features pack enough punch to sway buyers from other entry-level shooters? Read more
