Nikon has shown off its shiny new D3100 camera, an entry-level dSLR replacing the budget Nikon D3000 which proved to be something of a hit with cut-price snappers.
Billed as the smallest and lightest Nikon D-SLR yet, the diminutive D3100 packs a DX-format, 14.2 megapixel CMOS image sensor, with a new image processing engine doing all the clever stuff behind the scenes.
Making us feel like ancient mariners being lured to a wallet-emptying doom is Sigma’s all-seducing siren of a dSLR, their stunningly delicious SD15 digital SLR.
With the bare minimum of fuss, Sony have announced two new entry level models in their Alpha series of dSLRs, the Alpha DSLR-A290 and DSLR-A390 D-SLRs.

For folks who like their zooms lens to be big and beefy, Fujifilm’s new FinePix HS10 ‘bridge’ digital camera could be worth considering.
Packing a mahoosive 30x optical zoom, the zoom starts at an unusually wide (and very useful) 24mm and powers up to a distant-speck spotting 720mm (35mm equivalent).
Photography website DPReview has posted its review of the Canon EOS 550D / Rebel T2i dSLR, and as expected, it’s the most comprehensive of the lot, offering a 29 page, in-depth look at the entry level dSLR.
Currently being teased on its own page is the new Sigma SD15 dSLR, a delightful looking piece of kit that has yet to see the light of day, despite being announced way back in 2006.
Pentax is launching a limited-edition silver version of its Pentax K-7 digital SLR camera, serving up a delicious old school look sure to get traditionalists twitching towards their wallets.
The Pentax K-7 Limited Silver updates the existing K-7 body with a new silver and black finish backed by a reinforced “highly shock and scratch resistant” LCD glass cover, said to be tougher than what you’ll get on the standard K7.
Canon has taken the wraps off its latest consumer digital SLR, the EOS 550D ( Rebel T2i) which packs a hefty 18MP sensor and full HD movie recording, tucked up in Canon’s familiar camera styling.

With another tug on their heavily-overworked new product curtain, Sony have introduced another member to their expansive Alpha DSLR range, the A450.
With the stripped-down, lower-cost A450 jostling for attention in the lively low-cost dSLR market, Sony seem to be hedging their bets, with the camera being the sixth Alpha model in the sub-$1,000, range, which sure seems like overkill to us.
We’ve been rattling off photos on our Nikon D300 for the past year now and it’s a lovely camera – but does the new D300S add up to a worthwhile upgrade?

If you’re the proud owner of a Sony A230, A330, A380 dSLR, then we suggest you hotfoot it over to Sony’s website sand gorge yourself on a lovely free firmware update.
“But what does it do?” you may ask? Well, pull up a chair and we’ll tell you.
