Which Nikon digital SLR?

Which Nikon digital SLR is right for you? Take your pick from our comprehensive round-up.

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.

Reviews

Nikon D3000

As long as you don't expect too many fancy bells and whistles, you won't be disappointed with the quality and performance of the D3000.
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.
Pentax K-m

We like the K-m and the image quality it offers, but having to fumble over the inconsistent metering and white balance can be an issue for users not familiar with manual exposure controls.
Olympus E-620

If you've been hankering after an Olympus E-30 but baulked at the price, don't despair ... just get the E-620 instead. It's a competent, capable digital SLR in the vein of its older sibling, but a lot smaller and cheaper.
Canon EOS 500D

The 500D is a very capable camera that is ideal for someone entering the world of digital SLRs. The inclusion of high-definition video adds even more appeal to the already good-looking package.
Samsung NV11

The Samsung NV11 can produce some very nice-looking pictures, but its unique interface isn't for everyone.
Pioneer PDP-428XDA

Pioneer has completely re-engineered the PDP-428XDA plasma to produce a high performance TV -- prepare to be blown away by the deep blacks, rich colours and natural looking picture.
Canon PowerShot G9

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