The Bottom Line The Nikon D40 is a great transition camera for going from point-and-shoot to your first dSLR. Nikon scores big with the D80, its new 10-megapixel, sub-$1,000 dSLR. The Sony Alpha DSLR-A200 is a solid entry-level dSLR that doesn't really stand out in its very competitive field. It doesn't stand out for its feature set or design, but the Canon EOS Rebel XSi delivers on performance and photo quality.
