Canon EOS 5D Mark II
THE 5D IS probably the perfect blend of a consumer SLR with professional innards - and this new, 21.1-megapixel version is magic. It boasts a newly-designed Canon CMOS sensor, with ISO sensitivity up to 25,600 for shooting in near-dark conditions. The new Digic 4 processor, combined with the improved CMOS sensor, gives medium format territory image quality at 3.9 frames per second, for up to 310 frames. Now the 5D Mark II adds high-resolution video, making it a brilliant two-in-one. A remarkable piece of kit.

Garmin Edge 305
IF YOU think about it, the amount of tasks for which most of us use a laptop are not all that taxing and we seldom spend that long on them - so why make them over-complicated?
The Asus Eee PC 701 is great value and also boasts some half decent specification. It is half the size of a regular notebook, weighs less than 1kg and, because it has a solid-state disk, it will take the odd knock better than most.
It comes with Wi-Fi so you are ready to roll on the internet and this one even has a built-in webcam.
