Pocket-sized digital camcorders are becoming more capable all the time. We round up ten of the best

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

High performance with a matching price tag.

Rarely has a new camera received as much attention as the EOS 300D, released amid a flurry of excitement among photographers and a massive marketing campaign. Why the fuss? Because it's a true 6.3-megapixel digital SLR for under $2,000 including lens. It sounds expensive in the context of the cameras in this month's digital cameras Labs, but the previous generation of several models in that test were nudging a grand when they were released.

Canon’s SLR fails to make the enormous splash of its predecessors, but it’s still a great camera in its own right.

Forget budget DSLR, this is for serious photography. Extravagant in almost every way, the D700 is superbly responsive and produces stunning images

Not flawless, but Sony’s debut DSLR impresses with a 10.2-megapixel resolution and built-in anti-shake.

The new Nikon D90, due to hit shelves in September, boasts unique 720p movie HD capabilities, a much improved sensor and surprisingly, a GPS option.

Image quality is reasonable, but there are far better cameras available for less.

Good value thanks to a decent 18-70mm kit lens and camera-based anti-shake

Excellent performance and features, but at a price that’s too high
