Canon EOS 500D + 18-55mm IS

If you're a keen photographer but are frustrated with the limitations of standard point & click cameras, you may want to think about stepping up a level into the realm of the DSLR (digital single lens reflex). There are several entry level DSLR's and while they will set you back a good wedge of hard earned cash you will start noticing the results immediately.

Amazon are currently selling Canon Digital IXUS 110 cameras with a huge 46% reduction as one of their Deals of the Week, meaning you can pick one up for under £190 if you're quick. Available in silver, gold, blue and pink with a 4 x optical zoom, 2.8" LED screen and a massive 12.1 megapixels this little point and click is a bit of a belter and at this price you can't really go wrong.

All-in-one printers can be a bit hit and miss at times, but that's certainly not the case with the Canon Pixma MX7600. If you're looking for an all-singing, all-dancing printer that you can print photos, scan documents and send faxes on - all at a good quality - then the MX7600 could be for you. Of course, decent performance generally comes at a price but if you're planning to get a lot of use out of your printer, then you'll soon see the benefit of spending that little bit more.
