ISO range extends to 12800, high ISO noise reduction is user-selectable, yet noise was higher than most other tested SLRs.

Video

The K-x was sharper than most DSLRs that record 720p video, but there’s only one frame rate option (24p), and it doesn’t shoot Full HD.

    Nikon D5100

    The D5100 is the latest entry-level DSLR from Nikon, with full 1080/30p video, an articulated LCD, and the same image sensor as the D7000. It lacks an internal focus motor, but we found it produced some of the most accurate colors we've seen yet. Read full 7-part review
