CNET.com.au's digital SLR superguide

Digital SLR cameras have opened up a world of new opportunities in photography. This guide will walk you through the choices and let you take your images to the next level.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX100

If you absolutely must have a 12-megapixel compact camera, the DMC-FX100 isn't a bad choice, but you can find better performing cameras with lower pixel counts for the same money.

Reviews

  • Olympus Mju 820

    It looks good and its features are nice, but the Olympus Mju 820's photos and performance simply aren't up to scratch.

  • Canon Digital IXUS 960 IS

    Canon's Digital IXUS 960 IS looks great and can take very nice images, but the digital camera's whopping 12 megapixels will leave you waiting between shots.

  • Canon PowerShot A650 IS

    Performance issues aside, the Canon PowerShot A650 IS combines large, good-looking photos and a generous feature set into a fine mid-range shooter.

  • Casio Exilim EX-Z1200

    Though hardly perfect, the Casio Exilim EX-Z1200 produces some very nice, very large pictures.

  • Nikon D80

    Nikon's newest mid-level dSLR has a solid feature set that should make it a favourite for experienced photographers or even for SLR newbies who crave more power than the D50's.

  • Samsung D600

    Samsung's D500 was voted the best mobile handset of 2005 by the GSM association. Can the upgraded D600 outdo it in 2006?

  • Canon Digital IXUS 750

    The Canon Digital IXUS 750 is a very well-designed, 7-megapixel snapshot camera. Just don't look for advanced controls.

  • Higher resolutions: 12-megapixel cameras

    Cameras might be staying small, but their photos are getting bigger than ever. While once only digital SLRs could hit such high resolutions, now even inch-thick point-and-shoot cameras can reach or surpass 12 megapixels.
