'Plenty of features for beginners to grow.'

'The 600D now sits at the top-end of the company's entry-level SLR range, taking all the bits that made the 60D good and shrinking them down a bit.'

'Simple, flexible, artistic.'

'Practical feature set contribute to the Nikon D5100's strengths.'

'excellent camera'

'Well-rounded feature set.'

'Superb still image and video quality'

'More unusually still at this level, the K-x’s light sensitivity settings can be boosted to a semi-pro equivalent ISO 12,800 for flash free photography in the near dark and 16:9 widescreen format HD video recording – at 1280 x 720 pixels, 24fps, rather than Full HD 1920 x 1080 – marking this out as an affordable all-in-one device. '

'Small and light, the Pentax K-x seems like a well-built, no-nonsense digital SLR'

'The new K-x felt sturdy.'

'The camera also features a new 'cross-processing' mode on top of an already impressive range of filters and processing options. '

'Fast 4 fps.'

'the Olympus E-620's most desirable feature is the tilt/swivel LCD.'

'Build quality is very good as the camera feels solid and there’s no creaking anywhere.'

'the system is now fully evolved and the current cameras are excellent.'

'The Nikon D3000 looks and feels expensive; its build is similar to the more-expensive ($999 list, body only) Nikon D90 , but it's more compact (1.16 pounds) with a smaller grip and fewer buttons. '

'If you're an enthusiast photographer and want to learn more about how to take photos in different situations, there is probably no better camera to get your hands on than the Nikon D3000. '

'The slightly mottled plastic around the body is the standard Nikon feel, and overall build quality is excellent considering the price range. '

'A low price boosts the Canon EOS Digital Rebel's appeal for amateur film-SLR photographers going digital and high-end snapshooters who want to experiment more. '

'Compact and lightweight'

'For less than $1,000 ($899.99 list with an EF-S 18-to-55mm IS lens), you get a 15.1-megapixel CMOS sensor that takes fantastic pictures and a big, high-res VGA screen, along with high-definition video capture, which until now you couldn't get in a sub-$1K D-SLR '

'very compact camera'

'Extensively customizable.'

'E-30 attractive'

'The E-30 offers many options that aren’t in plain sight so the manual does come in handy.'

'Face detection & Art Filters.'

'It feels right and takes fine, accurate photos with little noise until you hit the outer limits (1600+).'

'in-body Steady Shot image stabilization and compatibility'

'The E-520 is light, and the new grip has made the camera extremely portable and comfortable to carry in the hand.'

'good compact camera'

'With and convenient as shooting with a compact digital camera'

'decent camera'

'Overall, a good, well-rounded camera, if not a little unremarkable in places due to lack of new innovation. '

'It's a digital SLR that's aimed at people who don't have a big budget and who are perhaps new to digital photography but don't want a camera with a smaller Micro Four Thirds–based system.'

'overall the camera is reassuringly solid with rechargeable NP-FH50 lithium ion battery inserted and the 18-55mm kit lens we were supplied for our test attached.'
