There is no doubt that the Digital SLR camera market has grown immensely over the last few years. This is largely down to the entry level cameras reducing in price to a few hundred pounds. It wasn’t that long ago that it would have cost you a good £200-£300 for a 5mega pixel compact camera. Now though for a few pound more you can get yourself a decent entry level Digital SLR camera.

The three models we have chosen to take a closer look at are:
- Canon EOS 450D (More…)
- Nikon D60 (More…)
- Sony Alpha 300 (more…)
All of these cameras will offer the user a greater picture quality and ability to take the all important shot. However our favourite entry level camera is the Canon EOS 450D, which is closely followed by the Nikon. While Sony will take a good picture for you, we didn’t feel it offered the same opportunity as the canon and Nikon when moving up to higher models currently on the market.
