 Olympus
UK has today confirmed that the body only list price of the E-1 digital
SLR (including 17.5% VAT) will be £1699.99. This means that at least
initially the E-1 will be approximately £200 more than a Nikon D100
and £450 more than a Canon EOS-10D. Assuming the E-1's street price
drops once the immediate rush is over we could see it matching the D100
at £1499 (inc. VAT). In my opinion this price is simply too high
for a new SLR system. We still don't have official pricing for lenses
or accessories.

Canon's EOS R, the company's first full-frame mirrorless camera, impresses us with its image quality and color rendition. But it also comes with quirky ergonomics, uninspiring video features and a number of other shortcomings. Read our full review to see how the EOS R stacks up in today's full-frame mirrorless market.
No Nikon camera we've tested to date balances stills and video capture as well as the Nikon Z7. Though autofocus is less reliable than the D850, Nikon's first full-frame mirrorless gets enough right to earn our recommendation.
Nikon's Coolpix P1000 has moved the zoom needle from 'absurd' to 'ludicrous,' with an equivalent focal length of 24-3000mm. While it's great for lunar and still wildlife photography, we found that it's not suited for much else.
As a stills camera the Fujifilm X-T3 is a pleasant update to one of our favorite APS-C cameras, significantly improving the autofocus. If you're interested in stills and video, though, it's knockout.
The Nikon Z7 is slated as a mirrorless equivalent to the D850, but it can't subject track with the same reliability as its DSLR counterpart. AF performance is otherwise good, except in low light where hunting can lead to missed shots.
