Canon grabs the crown for the most fully featured HDV camcorder for under $1500

It certainly isn’t pretty, but with results like these for such a low price the MP180 is hard to ignore

Superb build quality and performance make this a worthwhile upgrade for serious amateurs.

It’s the stills camera that thinks it’s a video camera. A high definition video camera.

Expensive but solidly built – a fast way to get superbly vibrant A3 prints.

The attractive looks are undermined by average image quality, although it remains good value.

A beautiful example of high technology, but we have reservations about the ultimate quality of images.

Capable of reproducing good photos, but it’s slow, a bit expensive to run and has a poor scanner.

There’s a good range of software and excellent image quality, but you pay a lot for the durability and ADF.

Running costs are high, but with a high resolution and superb performance, it’s a groundbreaking product.

The MP500 is a great all-rounder. It’s capable of excellent print quality at high speeds, plus CD printing, has an automatic duplex module and a tempting price.

One of the fastest and best-quality printers on show. The scanner isn’t perfect and there aren’t as many features as the best here, but the MP170 is hard to beat for value.

The Ixus 60 delivers superb image quality and is beautifully designed and built.

Successor to the ubiquitous 350D, Canon's affordable yet powerful 400D D-SLR is a serious weapon whether an amateur or pro.

Canon's reign over the compact digital camera market looks set to continue with this offering.

A high end DVD-based camcorder for quick and clean shooting.

Cheap, sexy, slim and fully-featured. A dream for ultra-portable photography.

High performance with a matching price tag.

Anyone who used the IXUS 40 mightwonder how Canon could possiblyimprove on it, but that’s precisely whatit has done.

It doesn't seem likely that one device could be all things to all people, but the Canon PIXMA MP780 is the closest thing we've seen yet. It has a feature set that would leave few wanting, and is capable of professional results. Not only that, but this is by far the quickest inkjet in this roundup.
