Title: Canon EOS 40D
Pros: Built to last, bridges the gap between entry-level and pro DSLRs, warm colours and plenty of detail in the images, large LCD
Cons: Expensive, no built-in image stabilisation, poor positioning of power switch
Verdict: Left on default, the pictures are slightly warm, though not unrealistically so, and sharp too, providing a good option for portraits. White balance is accurate, image noise unproblematic and to prevent any undesirables intruding there's an anti dust funct
Summary: This semi-professional DSLR is the 10-megapixel successor to the EOS 30D, reviewed last autumn, and slots into Canon's range between the budget 400D and the mortgage-baiting EOS 1Ds Mark III. The 40D is still pricey - at around £900 without lens - so Cano

Title: Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ18
Pros: Excellent telephoto lens, Good all-round image quality
Cons: Not the fastest
Verdict: This Panasonic is as much about quality as it is raw power. Images from the 8MP chip are simply superb, making this a safe choice for anyone looking for a competent, all-in-one back-up
Summary: Digital SLRs may be making all the headlines but rumours of the death of the compact camera have been greatly exaggerated. Panasonic's latest super-zoom revitalises the category with a mighty 18x optical zoom
