Nothing like cheaper prices to cheer in the New Year and Olympus is quickest off the blocks in the digital SLR (DSLR) arena with cuts of up to £150 off its excellent E410 and E510 cameras and kits.

Considering the massive leap in performance DSLRs represent over £200 digital compacts, the shrinking price gap makes getting a serious digital camera a lot more affordable for everyone. Bulkier yes, but the results are stunning.

The E510 Single lens Kit, Double Zoom kit and Travel Kit cost £450, £550 and £500. Happy shopping.-Martin Lynch
