Canon EOS Rebel T3 (with 18-55mm IS II lens)
  • CNET Editor rating:
    3.5 stars Very good
      Overall score: 7.1 (3.5 stars)
  • Average user rating: 3.5 stars out of 5 reviews

The Bottom Line: Though it's a perfectly fine entry-level camera, there are better options for the money than the Canon EOS Rebel T3. Read review

Specs: SLR, 12.2 megapixels, 3 x, 29 - 88mm F/3.5, 14.7 x 22mm, CMOS, Optical

Nikon D3100 (with 18-55mm lens, Black) Reviewed on October 21, 2010 Check prices

Nikon D3100 (with 18-55mm lens, Black)
  • CNET Editor rating:
    3.5 stars Very good
      Overall score: 7.4 (3.5 stars)
  • Average user rating: 4.0 stars out of 25 reviews

The Bottom Line: A very good entry-level dSLR, the Nikon D3100 delivers excellent photo quality in a body that's streamlined for experienced photographers, but relatively unintimidating for the less advanced. Its only weakness is performance; though solid, it nevertheless lags behind the competition. Read review

  • Average user rating: 4.5 stars out of 16 reviews

The Bottom Line: Though it doesn't rank first based on any individual aspect of the camera, the Nikon D5100 delivers a solid combination of image quality, performance, features, and design that puts it out in front if you're looking for a well-rounded option under $1,000. Read review

Specs: SLR, 16.2 megapixels, 3 x, 27 - 82.5mm F/3.5, 15.6 x 23.6mm, CMOS, Optical

Sony Alpha NEX-5R (Body Only, Black)

The Bottom Line: It's a great camera choice for high-quality stills and a streamlined shooting design under $800, but the Sony Alpha NEX-5R falls short when it comes to sharing your shots online. Read review

      Overall score: 7.8 (3.5 stars)
  • Average user rating: 4.0 stars out of 3 reviews

The Bottom Line: Though it doesn't wow us for any particular aspect, the Sony Alpha NEX-F3 is a nice overall package for photographers looking for something with better photo quality and more flexible than a point-and-shoot. Read review

      Overall score: 7.3 (3.5 stars)
  • Average user rating: 4.0 stars out of 28 reviews

Sony Alpha NEX-C3 (with 16mm lens, Black)

The Bottom Line: A lot of people will like the Sony Alpha NEX-C3 for its excellent photo quality and a now more usable design, but it can get unexpectedly heavy with the zoom E-mount lenses and it's still a bit more expensive than many point-and-shoot upgraders will like. Read review
