| Review summary | In many ways, the operation and performance of the Pentax K100D Super exceeds expectations, given both its price and 'mere' 6-megapixel resolution. For just £370, it represents one of the biggest dSLR bargains out there for anyone looking to make the trade up from a compact or swap from a film SLR Read full review |
Nikon's flagship dSLR packs a full-frame 12-megapixel sensor and is a highly versatile imaging powerhouse that lets photographers create images previously impossible to capture. As long as you can get used to this camera's solid weight, it's a definite step up from the D2Xs and produces high-quality photography. This one is definitely aimed at the pros, so amateurs beware Read full review |

Canon Digital IXUS 200 IS
Ticks numerous boxes, but it's not especially cheap and not particularly exciting
Canon PowerShot S90
The S90 is the enthusiast's dream, offering compactness, great image quality and superb controls
Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX550
Disappointing. The hybrid touchscreen interface is lacklustre overall, and the lens isn't that good
Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF1
Very expensive, but, as soon as you pick it up, you know this camera is special
