Verdict:
Canon's MP610 prints better colour documents than the MP520, but while the MP610 has an additional black photo cartridge, the cheaper MFP produced better photos. The MP610 is the only device here with a built-in duplexer, which is valuable if you want to create two-sided documents easily. Print costs are the same as those of the MP520, and the MP610 is £40 more expensive to buy, so it's worth the extra money only if you really need a duplexer.
