Come October 1 the 50D will sit atop Canon's APS-C digital SLR tree. It gains a higher resolution 3-inch LCD, face detection and a 15.1-megapixel sensor over the 40D, which will continue to soldier on.

Digital SLRs that won't break the bank

Digital SLRs that won't break the bank

Remember when it was common to drop AU$1,000 on a nice digital point-and-shoot? These days, for around the same outlay, you can pick up a digital SLR camera.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50

Plentiful features with all manner of adjustable options, entertaining gimmicks and rock-solid shooting make us like this camera a lot. If you could stick an SD card slot in there, it'd be one of the best superzooms we've seen. Sadly, it loses marks for the proprietary connections.

Fujifilm FinePix S8100fd

Fujifilm FinePix S8100fd

We're actually struggling to think of anything bad about the 10-megapixel zooming behemoth that is the Fujifilm FinePix S8100fd. It's a versatile and reliable camera that gets looks, features, image quality and controls right.

Fujifilm FinePix J50

Fujifilm FinePix J50

The J50 is strictly for beginners who want a simple shooter to start exploring the world of photography. While the extensive modes make up for the lack of fancy features, little has been done to salvage the less-than-desired image quality.

Olympus E-420

Olympus E-420

The Olympus E-420 is a good beginner's dSLR with an extremely compact footprint that should go well with travellers. Just don't expect any fancy features for this budget model.

Nikon Coolpix P60

Nikon Coolpix P60

Stolid rather than sexy, competent rather than classy, the boxy Nikon Coolpix P60 is a belt-and-braces, real ale-supping point-and-shoot. The cool kids won't be impressed, but we're always glad to see a compact that gives such reliable images

Kodak EasyShare Z8612 IS

Kodak EasyShare Z8612 IS

The Kodak EasyShare Z8612 IS has trimmed off every gram of fat, but the 12x zoom lens overbalances the camera. It oozes understated élan and even has some clever features, but the performance isn't quite there.

Nikon D700

Nikon D700

Boasting many of the internal bits from the professional-spec (and professionally priced) D3, the D700 is an (almost) affordable full-frame dSLR. It faces up to the Canon 5D with a 12.1-megapixel CMOS sensor, 51 auto-focussing points, 5fps or 8fps shooting depending on battery and mini-HDMI out.
