Digital SLR basics
Looking to enter the world of digital SLR photography? The next instalment of our Learning Centre on digital photography helps explain some of the terms and key features you'll come across.
Nikon D3S
The Nikon D3S is the replacement for the professional workhorse, the D3, and sits alongside the D3X at the top of the Nikon FX sensor line-up.

Nikon D300s
The D300s is a fast, reliable workhorse for the semi-professional or amateur photographer, and it feels great to use and makes picture taking a real pleasure. But if you don't need HD video, you might want to try the plain old D300 instead.
-
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.
-
Panasonic HDC-SD20
The SD20 features a new CMOS sensor, albeit not the 3MOS set up found in the HS200 and TM200, and records on to SD/SDHC cards, although none are included. There is, however, a new "advanced" optical image stabilisation system, 5.1-channel recording and a touchscreen LCD.
-
Canon HF11
It might not fit every hand, but the results it provides are excellent whether you're a manual fiddler or just want quick and easy automatic filming capabilities.
-
Olympus E-520
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.
-
Canon HF10
Canon's first flash-based camcorder, the Canon HF10, delivers excellent HD video quality and performance in a tiny package.
-
Olympus E-420
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.
-
Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS kit lens
The Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS kit lens is a solidly performing medium-zoom lens, with good optics and image stabilisation, that will appeal to more than just the entry-level crowd.
