Canon EOS 7D

Canon EOS 1D Mark IV

Sony Alpha A850

Sony's A850 is a full frame sensor digital SLR which is set to go head-to-head with Canon's 5D Mark II and Nikon's D700. With 24.6 megapixels inside and in-body image stabilisation it's certainly not a shrinking violet, either.

Pentax K7

The K7 is a digital SLR from Pentax which features HD movie recording, as well as a 14.2 megapixel sensor and is weather, dust and freeze resistant.
