Superb print quality at consistently high speeds, and it’s packed with useful features too.

The Canon EOS 500D is capable of great results, but a wallet-draining way of getting HD video on a DSLR.

Beautiful, ultra-compact, super-slick and friendly to use, plus great quality. A winning combination from Canon.

We've been lucky to have hands-on review time with two of the most hotly-anticipated compacts cameras we've seen for some time. See our photos and first impressions of the Powershot SX200 IS and Lumix DMC-TZ7 (also known as ZS3)

A fast, high-quality all-in-one, but for running costs look for the MP610 first.

A slight speed boost and a new curvaceous shape keep Canon on top of the inkjet pile.

A decent enough addition to the legendary EOS range, but there are too many competitors at this price.

The 450D’s superb sensor makes it the best choice if quality is your priority. It doesn't beat the Sony A200 for value, but for the best quality below $1500 the 450D has the edge.

The scanner is the only minor weakness in an otherwise near perfect home all-in-one

Fast, great quality prints at a decent price – the only real competition for the other Canon

Good quality optics and lots of storage, but not the most portable of camcorders

Impressive optical quality and storage space, though a touch expensive

Great image quality and plenty of enthusiast features for a very reasonable price

We've found a digital compact under $150 that's not junk. Canon’s efforts to swamp the planet under five feet of compact cameras continues with its latest batch of PowerShot models.

Canon’s splashed into shallow end of the DSLR pool again with an entry-level model based on the 450D. Will it win gold or need water wings?

Cheaper than the HF10, although you need to factor in the cost of storage cards

Lacking a few features but for simplicity and decent quality, this has to be one of the best value camcorders around

Not much to tempt you over last year's HV20 but Canon still rules the roost when it comes to raw picture quality

A pint-sized camera that packs a punch, with consistently good performance in all conditions

A good camera at the price, but perhaps not as great as you thought it was going to be. Its shortcomings will nag at you like an old fishwife
