Canon EOS 1DX\"Canon<\/img><\/h3>\n

\u00a35,299
\nReleased in time for the London 2012 Olympics, the Canon EOS 1D-X was clearly aimed at sports shooters. <\/p>\n

Built with two card slots, up to 14fps super high speed mode, a full frame sensor and a 3.2in LCD.<\/p>\n

\n Best professional DSLR for sports shooters<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

Nikon D4<\/h3>\n

\u00a34,289
\nNikon’s D4 is capable \"Nikon<\/img>of great colour reproduction, as well as excellent metering, dynamic range and focusing.<\/p>\n

There’s a large 3.2in screen to make the most of the 51 point autofocus system too. One of the best cameras we’ve ever reviewed.<\/p>\n

\n Best professional DSLR for image and features<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

Nikon D3s<\/h3>\n

\u00a34,000<\/p>\n

Costing around \u00a3400 when new, the Nikon D3s can be snapped up for a bargain today. <\/p>\n

Featuring a 12.1 MP sensor and a top ISO of 102,400. There’s also a \u2018quiet’ mode for wildlife fans and a 9fps shooting rate too.<\/p>\n

\n Best professional DSLR for wildlife photographers<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

Sigma SD1<\/h3>\n

\u00a35,500\"Sigma<\/img>
\nWith the Foveon X3 sensor, the Sigma SD1 offers 46 million pixels in a weather sealed body. <\/p>\n

The removable dust protector is a boon. Although the top ISO of 6400, may feel a little restrictive to some.<\/p>\n

\n Best professional DSLR for bad weather<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

Canon EOS 1D Mark IV<\/h3>\n

\u00a33,740<\/p>\n

\n \"Canon<\/img>
\n <\/h3>\n

A little long in the tooth now, but still a top choice for professional photographers. <\/p>\n

The 16.1MP sensor may seem tame compared to the behemoth sizes currently around but the Canon EOS 1D Mark IV offers 10fps and 45-point AF. Ideal for sports and wildlife shooters.<\/p>\n

\n Best professional DSLR for budget<\/strong>\n <\/p>\n
