Photos shot with the Sony Alpha DSLR-A200.
Noise: details
The A200's photos start out a bit soft -- at least with the 18-70mm kit lens -- but don't lose much detail to noise suppression even as high as ISO 3200. Edges start to lose cohesion between ISO 800 and ISO 1600. (ISO 400 and ISO 800 photos were indistinguishable in this context.)

Sony's first real entry-level digital SLR has the right specs to take on veterans from Nikon and Canon.
A summary of CES 2008's camera and camcorder showing.
The Olympus E-420 is a good beginner's dSLR with an extremely compact footprint that should go well with travellers. Just don't expect any fancy features for this budget model.
At 825 grams, the Nikon D300 is more than heavy, but if you're a keen photographer and have an eye for detail, the D300 will prove itself with great image quality shot after shot. However, first time photographers and social-snappers might find this dSLR slightly overwhelming.
The 50D is remarkably similar to the 40D in terms of performance, looks and features — but if you can spare the extra cash, it's a much nicer package.
The J100 is definitely a point-and-shoot — because you can't do anything else with it.
The E-520 adds an appealing range of features to the existing Olympus line-up of dSLRs, but mostly for the first-time buyer. Apart from image stabilisation built into the body and the ability to use older lenses on the Four Thirds system, there is not much that really sets the E-520 apart from other cameras in its class.
Sony's T700 is a winner in the looks department, but beneath the brushed metal exterior lies a clever way to share photos. With 4GB of internal memory and a 3.5-inch LCD touchscreen, the T700 is a good, if slightly expensive camera, especially given that image quality isn't always up to scratch.
Sony's entry-level Cyber-shot DSC-W110 includes face detection, noise reduction and high ISO sensitivity up to ISO 3200.
