Sony Alpha DSLR-A380

While the Sony Alpha DSLR-A380 is a solid and inexpensive dSLR with a few nice features that will probably satisfy many shooters, it doesn't deliver quite enough on any front to outshine competitors.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1

As long as you don't want to make enlargements from full-sized images, the DSC-HX1 is an interesting, fully featured superzoom. Just beware of that exorbitant price.

Reviews

  • Sony Alpha DSLR-A330

    The Sony Alpha DSLR-A330 is a solid entry-level dSLR that will surely have its fans, but unless you really want Live View its cheaper sibling, the A230, is a better deal.

  • Olympus E-P1

    Though it's rather expensive, we can't help adoring the E-P1. The pictures it takes with the included lenses are mostly great, just don't expect compact-like features such as a viewfinder and flash to be included.

  • Sony Alpha DSLR-A230

    The Sony Alpha DSLR-A230 is a solid entry-level dSLR that will surely have its fans, and it's a better deal than its slightly higher-end sibling, the A330.

  • Olympus SP-570 Ultra Zoom

    The 10-megapixel SP-570UZ boasts a 20x optical zoom lens, but poor performance diminishes its potential as an otherwise solid superzoom.

  • Olympus E-510

    The Olympus E-510 has quirky exposure and white-balance issues, but its Live View and image stabilisation modes may make some photographers give this SLR a chance.

  • Canon PowerShot G9

    The Canon PowerShot G9 is a solid enthusiast camera for those who want something compact to complement a dSLR.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-L1

    The Panasonic Lumix DMC-L1 is Panasonic's first digital SLR, and it's the second digital SLR to feature a live-view LCD screen.

  • Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX2

    The LX2 ups the ante of the LX1 by upping the sensor resolution and LCD screen size of the 'triple wide' offering; it features a 16:9 wide aspect ratio CCD and LCD as well as a 28mm wide angle lens.
