The Bottom Line Pentax's K200D entry-level SLR gives a lot of bang for the buck and has better performance than last year's model. Despite low noise and pleasingly detailed images, technically inaccurate colors keep it from capturing the gold medal for image quality. Nikon scores big with the D80, its new 10-megapixel, sub-$1,000 dSLR. It doesn't stand out for its feature set or design, but the Canon EOS Rebel XSi delivers on performance and photo quality. Despite modest improvements in performance and a couple of new features, Nikon's D60 fails to impress and costs more than some competing models. The Canon EOS Rebel XS is a good entry-level dSLR, but only its photo quality stands out among the competition.
