Turkish Army

Although I've read in depth about this period, what has escaped my attention thhus far is Turkish arms, uniforms, and equipment. Anybody know much about them in this period? Or a site that would have the relative information?
I can't imagine the Turks wearing Shakos and Czapkas...much less bicorne and tricorn hats.
In my minds eye I imagine them wearing turbans like the Indian infantry in the old black and white films like "King of the Khyber Rifles".
