Some of our regular readers may know that I have made occasional references to my interest in photography. After a few years of letting work take over my life and getting by with nothing but my mobile phone camera, I finally decided on an entry-level DSLR to ease my way back into the hobby....more

Do you need more than twenty million pixels? Canon thinks so, and you can pick up the 21 million pixel EOS 5D Mark II now. Sony thinks so too, and it's 24 megapixel flagship, the Alpha 900 can be found now as well. Nikon is the latest DSLR manufacturer to jump on the ultra high-resolution bandwagon, and it's new 24-megapixel D3x is on sale at a photographic store near you....more

Technically, you can call the Flip Video Mino a camcorder. But its no-frills feature set and 640x480 resolution casts it as more of a 'dumbcorder'. Imagine the power of a VGA webcam sellotaped to a 2GB memory card, all stuffed into the hollowed out shell of a Nokia N95....more

On the eve of its replacement, the D80 looked far from dated. Its successor, the D90, has been widely rumoured for some time, and key specifications leaked onto the Internet some time before the official launch....more

Canon appears to be steamrolling its way over every competitor in the D-SLR market.The recent launch of the 450D - a hybrid version of the entry-level 400D and semi-pro 40D - has been closely followed by the 1000D. And there's nothing like a randomly chosen model name to go and confuse its line up of D-SLRs....more

On paper, it looks as if the Nikon P80 can do anything you'd ever ask of a camera. The 18x zoom covers a range equivalent to 27mm to nearly 500mm, and in-built image stabilisation should help keep those long shots steady. Keen photographers like to fiddle with the shutter speed and aperture, and the P80's SLR-style Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority and Manual modes should make this straightforward....more
