5.Sony Alpha DSLR-A330
The Sony Alpha DSLR-A330 is a solid entry-level DSLR that surely have its fans. The Sony A330 is a 10.2 megapixel DSLR camera featuring a restyled external design and enhanced user interface, both intended to make it easier to use for people new to SLR photography.
In its favor, the Alpha A330 has built-in stabilization which works with any lens you attach, a slightly larger 2.7in screen that can also be vertically tilted for easier composition at high or low angles, an HDMI port, and a quicker, fuss-free Live View system with faster auto-focus. Sony A330 has a street price of around £600 / $650 with the 18-55mm kit lens (exclusivly sold by Jessops in the UK).

4. Canon Rebel XS
For perfect photos, fast and simple, there’s nothing better than Canon’s new EOS Rebel XS. With powerful features including a 10.1-megapixel CMOS sensor, Canon’s DIGIC III processor, fast shooting and more, it’s a digital powerhouse. With simple, easy-to-use controls, a compact design, a 2.5-inch LCD monitor, and Live View Function, it’s a beginner’s dream come true
And because of the lower megapixelage, the XS is the first of this series able to pull off unlimited consecutive large, fine JPEGs. Canon Rebel XSis an excellent camera for cost conscious entry-level photographers and it is available in a kit version which includes the EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS zoom lens, at a retail price of US$699 or less.

3. Olympus E-30
The Olympus E-30 single-lens reflex digital camera is aimed at what are often referred to as “prosumer” users, who lie somewhere in between the casual consumer and the professional photographer. The E-30 borrows quite a lot of features from its big brother, including the fast 11-point auto-focus system, shutter speeds of up to 1/8000th second, 1/250th sec maximum flash sync speed, 5fps continuous shooting, built-in image stabilizer which stabilizes all lenses, Live View on a multi-angle LCD screen and the Supersonic Wave Filter dust reduction system..x.jpg)
First impressions of the Olympus E-30 are that it's very similar to its literally bigger brother, the E-3, with a familiar control layout. The E-30 is quite a lot smaller (141.5x107.5x75.0mm versus 142.5x116.5x74.5mm) and lighter (655g versus 810g) than the E-3, so if portability is an issue, the E-30 is the one to go for. Compared to its main rivals, the E-30 is very comparable to the Canon EOS 50D and Nikon D90, being slightly smaller than the former and slightly larger than the latter. So much then for the apparent advantage of the Four-Thirds system in enabling lighter camera bodies and optics – in order to compete with the big boys in the enthusiast market, it's almost as if Olympus has decided its new camera has to be as physically demanding. On the plus side, it does feel as solid as you'd expect a camera retailing around £850 / $1300 to be. The E-30 is also available as a kit with the new 14-54mm f2.8-3.5 II lens, which we tested during this review. Thanks to a combination of the E-30's 11-point auto focus and the Zuiko Digital Supersonic Wave Drive lenses, Olympus is claiming the world's fastest auto focus speeds (as with the E-3). A respectable 5fps performance in burst mode for up to 12 consecutive RAW images, maximum shutter speed of 1/8000th sec, and 1/250th sec maximum flash sync speed further convey the impression that the Olympus E-30 is for more than just snapping the kids at play.

2. Canon EOS 50DThe 50D has many similar characteristics to its predecessor, the 40D. This includes various shooting modes, the ability to change ISO and white balance, a pop-up flash unit, and an LCD screen. The LCD screen is the same size (3.0″) as the 40D but has a higher resolution (920k pixels) than any previous model.  |
