Nikon D3000 (with 18mm-55mm lens) Reviewed on 09/24/2009

The Bottom Line: Its feature set is basic even by entry-level standards, but the Nikon D3000 delivers the photo quality and performance you expect when stepping up to a dSLR, with an optional interface that's very beginner friendly.

Specs: SLR, 10.2 megapixels, 3 in LCD display

Pentax X70 Reviewed on 08/14/2009

The Bottom Line: Slow performance and photo quality concerns stop the otherwise very good Pentax X70 from being a winning megazoom.

Sony Alpha DSLR-A230 (with 18-55mm lens) Reviewed on 07/16/2009

The Bottom Line: The Sony Alpha DSLR-A230 is a solid entry-level dSLR that will surely have its fans, and it's a better deal than its slightly higher-end sibling, the A330.

Specs: SLR, 10.2 megapixels, 3 x, 2.7 in LCD display

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1 Reviewed on 04/30/2009

The Bottom Line: Trade-offs abound in Sony's Cyber-shot DSC-HX1 megazoom. Though it's fast and has some really novel, useful features, it just doesn't deliver the photo quality expected for its class.
