Nikon D300S review

Aimed at professionals, the 12-megapixel D300S is a great digital SLR. It offers fantastic picture quality, excellent high-definition movies, a super-tough body that feels like it's been hewn from granite, and some top-notch features. Its price tag may very well bring a tear to your eye though Read more

Sony Alpha DSLR-A100 review

Sony's first digital SLR marks the Japanese giant's entry into the top division of digital still imaging. With a 10.2-megapixel CCD sensor, a bevy of convenience features such as eye-start autofocus and a CCD-shift image stabilisation system, Sony has delivered a worthy competitor in the sub-£800 dSLR market 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

Olympus E-420 review

Olympus' entry-level dSLR is the world's smallest and lightest digital SLR. An upgrade of the E-410, the E-420 boasts a larger, better, 69mm LCD, improved autofocus in live view mode, face detection and slightly faster continuous shooting Read more

Canon EOS 500D review

The 15-megapixel EOS 500D is an impressive entry-level digital SLR, offering sharp pictures and speedier performance than some more expensive models, as well as solid hi-def video capability. There are some annoyances, such as the viewfinder, but the camera's performance offers adequate compensation Read more

Sigma SD15 review

The Sigma SD15 is an oddly eccentric fourth attempt at a high-end digital SLR by a manufacturer still better known for its accessories. Good results are achievable, but, by golly, you have to work for them. Read more
