Perhaps only the Xbox 360 has been more hyped than Aperture. Apple's tool for high-end photo editing posed so many questions in the weeks before its launch that Apple spent a long time evangelising its benefits. So why do we need Aperture in a world dominated by Adobe? Apple's director of software product marketing, Oren Ziv, explains: 'Photoshop wasn't particularly designed for photographers. It was designed for image manipulation'.
Apparently, Apple felt that third-party manufacturers were failing to meet the potential of the iPod as the primary music source of the home. The result, the iPod Hi-Fi, is about the same size and price as the mini systems that Apple hopes it will replace.
The nano has undergone major surgery as well, and even the humble iPod shuffle has had a slight face-lift courtesy of a new range of colours. This means there are now no fewer than five iPod models of various capacities; interestingly, not a single one is packaged in Apple's trademark white.
The new nano keeps the sharp, colourful 320 x 240 screen of its predecessor, but due to the new shape it's had to be rotated through 90. That means if you want to watch videos, you have to turn the Nano on its side. It feels perfectly comfortable, though - arguably more so than clutching the old 3G Nano upright.
The latest version of the iPod Nano looks very different to its predecessor. The long, lean shape has been replaced by a shorter, wider design that houses a 2in screen with a 320x240 resolution for video playback.
The touch doesn't offer the simplest music-playing experience, so if you want something purely for songs the iPod classic is considerably cheaper and offers much more storage. But when it comes to handheld internet, the touch pulls the rug from under every other device we've seen.

Blu-ray's most touted killer application is high-definition film playback.

Presently, though, there isn't much point in splashing out, not least because of the lack of availability of Blu-ray films in the UK.

Camcorders have come a long way over the years. They used to be bulky boxes, carried on your shoulder, that were only brought out for special occasions.

In a market awash with models, one range of digital cameras has continued to impress. Sitting at the top of the current range, Canon's latest Digital Ixus 65 boasts a new body design, a larger screen, and adds an extra megapixel to the 5 megapixel sensor of the Ixus 55.
Digital SLRs are great for all-round picture quality, but they're bulky and difficult to carry around with you everywhere. So it's always handy to have a quality pocket digital camera to keep with you all the time.

At the heart of the Rebel Xsi is the 12.2 megapixel sensor and the Digic III processor that has already proved its ability in previous Eos 1 models. Pushing past its competition with the 12.2 megapixels, the Rebel Xsi offers a variety advancements that make this camera joy to use.
The great thing about the Canon EOS Rebel XTi is that it provides all the features and performance that you'd expect from a professional digital DSLR but at prices that are good for entry-level photography enthusiasts.
Although Canon defined the entry-level market several years ago with the Eos 300D, the company has lost some ground over time with strong models from arch rival Nikon, and more recently Sony and Olympus.
Canon's previous update to the Eos 1D Mk II, the Mk IIn, resulted in arguably the maker's finest pro-level DSLR to date, so the arrival of the Eos 1D Mk III has been eagerly anticipated.
Canon EOS 20DCanon has a pretty good idea of how to make a camera. They have been doing it for quite sometime with much success. The EOS 20D replaces the EOS 10D, adding higher resolution, a broader range of ISO settings and faster performance.
Canon's 8 megapixel EOS 20D has been replaced by the new 30D, but some will be disappointed to learn the new model adopts the same 8.2 CMOS sensor originally designed for its predecessor.
Canon's EOS 400D is the successor to the hugely popular EOS 350D digital SLR, featuring 10.1 megapixel resolution, anti-dust features and a bigger, 2.5in, screen.
Outdoing its semi-pro 10-megapixel Eos 40D as well as the Eos 400D, Canon's new mid-range Eos 450D features a higher resolution 12.2-megapixel Cmos sensor with automated dust removal, 14-bit colour capture, and a new, larger 3in LCD with Live View. Also tempting, and tallying with our results with up to four stops compensation, is the newly developed EF-S 18-55mm image stabilised kit lens.
Canon's EOS 5D is a 12.8 megapixel digital SLR with a full-frame sensor. This covers the same area as standard 35mm film, allowing lenses to deliver the same field of view they would if mounted on a 35mm film camera. By contrast, most digital SLRs have physically smaller sensors that result in the focal length of lenses effectively being multiplied by 1.5x or 1.6x. This means the EOS-5D is excellent news for fans of wide-angle photography.
Canon Digital Rebel XSiFor years Canon's reputation in the DSLR market has been top notch. The Digital Rebel XSi continues the tradition of building quality, reliable cameras. The Canon Digital Rebel XSi is an excellent camera for those looking to jump into the DSLR world. It offers excellent performance at an attractive price.
The Canon 5D Mark II takes the convergence of still cameras and video to a new level in the consumer market. To learn more information about Canon Eos-5d Digital Camera in Athens, read below.
The HF10 also impressed us with its design. Canon's advertising stresses its usability, and we can't argue. It may not be the smallest camcorder on the market - try the Sony, left, if that's what you're after - but it fits perfectly in the palm. All the most important buttons fall naturally under your fingers, and the menu is a doddle.
However, the HV20 does miss having a lens ring, with a small roller wheel taking care of manual focusing. There's also a separate button for backlight compensation. The remaining functions are accessible using the joystick next to the Start/Stop button.
Once you get over the fact that Canon's new combined HDV and MiniDV camcorder differs little from last year's HV20 in anything but the sleek black body colour, you'll soon appreciate what this fully featured high definition camcorder has to offer.
The Ixus 900Ti is the new top-of-the-range model in Canon's Ixus line-up. The real headline grabber is that the Ixus 900Ti has a huge 10-megapixel CCD, which means it can take higher resolution photos than many Digital SLRs.
The LaserShot LBP5000 is the latest entry-level colour laser printer from Canon. The absence of a Mac-compatible Canon laser printer at this end of the market has been a chink in the company's armour.
The MV930 is Canon's latest budget digital video camera, and it's well specified for a device at this end of the market: stereo sound recording and a 2.7in LCD screen for recording and reviewing footage complement an impressive 25x optical zoom.
Canon's range of Pixma inkjet printers have made a good name for themselves over the years. Most are desktop machines, but the iP100 is a portable printer, designed to be carried around with you. It weighs just 2kg - a bit more if you attach the lithium-ion battery.
Even more of a throwback than the iP1200's looks was its use of three inks. Almost all inkjets these days use four inks, which they mix to create millions of different shades and colours. Really good photo printers use six or even eight inks. We haven't seen a three-ink A4 printer for years and years - and frankly, we'd hoped never to see one again.
With inkjets these days requiring umpteen expensive cartridges to print - when they're not busy scanning, copying and making the tea - it's reassuring to find there are still models that just do the job, and cheaply.
This compact Canon inkjet printer is easy to use and prints good photos, but it's not cheap.Canon's PIXMA mini260 is a compact printer that can print photographs up to 6 x 4in in size. It's about the size of a sandwich toaster and has a pull-out handle that makes it easy to carry around.
But it's the MP510's photo printing that proved the biggest draw, with a lot of detail and accurately reproduced colours at incredible speeds. It whipped out our six 6x4-inch test photos at best quality in just seven minutes and 41 seconds, which works out at around a minute and a quarter each; this is not far off the speed of the best dedicated photo inkjets.

Canon Powershot SD850Canon's Powershot SD850 is another step up in the evolution of the popular line of cameras. Canon improved upon the 6.2 megapixels in the SD700IS with 8.3 in the SD850. A second advance over the already superb SD700IS is the availability of a 1600 ISO setting for those low light settings.
Even though it looks like it belongs in the sleek and slim category, the Canon Powershot Sd870 IS packs all the features and functionality that you would expect from a standard digital camera. The picture quality is great, with several features for improving your point-and-shoot photos.
The Canon Powershot Tx1 may be more of a digital camera than a camcorder, but indeed, this hybrid camera has some outstanding features including small size and HD recording. Standout features for the Canon Powershot Tx1 include a 7.1 megapixel sensor, 10x optical zoom with 4x digital zoom and optical image stabilization.
The CP740 is certainly compact, but you'll need some room on your desk, as the paper tray stretches six inches in front. There are several input options. You can print from your PC via USB; insert a Memory Stick, Compact Flash or SD card into the front of the printer; or plug your PictBridge or Direct Print-compatible camera into the printer's USB port.
Canon first introduced the sit-up-and- beg Selphy ES1 printer just over a year ago and it has enjoyed sufficient success for the company to follow it up with a cheaper, improved model. Coming in at more than £50 cheaper than the ES1, the ES20 follows the lines of the earlier machine in ice-white plastic and has a smoothly curved top, offering its 76mm LCD display at a convenient angle for viewing. There's a spring-loaded carrying handle too.

The Casio Exilim Card Ex-s770 is one of the best sleek and slim cameras that you can buy because it combines good image quality with a compact and simple design. There are a lot of scene modes to choose from, which are a real boon for point-and-shoot addicts that need an easy way to adjust photos to different shooting environments.
Just because a camera is classified as sleek and slim doesn’t mean that it has to skimp on image quality. The Casio Exilim EX-Z1000 is a great example of how great things can come in small packages because this slim camera takes quality pictures. This camera is light, compact and easy to carry with a large display screen that makes it easy to see the viewing angle of the camera and the quality of the pictures you take.
The range of control that the EX-Z1200 offers really lets you get creative with your photography whilst retaining the simplicity of a point and shoot camera.
Casio may not be the first name that springs to mind when weighing up your next digital compact camera purchase, but it's well regarded by industry insiders for its cameras' user-friendly operation, sturdy build and image quality.

The Flip Ultra comes complete with a soft pouch and the cable you need to view videos on your television. The Vado costs less, but doesn't include either.

The S100FS's best feature is its lens, which starts at a true wide angle 28mm focal length and goes all the way to a 14.3x zoom. To achieve that with a DSLR, you'd need two lenses. The macro mode is just as impressive, focusing on subjects just 1cm away.

It's not a digital SLR, but neither is it a compact. This is one confused camera, that we love and loathe in almost equal measure. Start with the lens: we love it. It equates to 28-300mm lens on a 35mm camera, and for that alone you could pay upwards of £300 on a DSLR.
Fujifilm's FinePix S9500 Zoom has a 9 megapixel resolution and a long, 10.7x optical zoom. It may be an all-in-one camera, but its design and feature set suggests Fujifilm is squarely aiming it at those considering a budget digital SLR. Its sealed body means you can't swap lenses like you can with a digital SLR, but, then, you don't have to worry about dust getting on the sensor.

The lens is entirely internal, using a clever mixture of mirrors to produce the zoom, which means the body of the camera retains its thin profile whether it's on or off. The lens covers a 35mm equivalent of 36mm to 108mm - not an inconsiderable amount when you consider the tiny dimensions of the Fuji.
