Staff Edit - No selling outside the classified section - Thanks I can't post this in the for sale section (it won't let me :bang: ) Anyone?

Bought my camera a few months back (400D) And im going to be doing alot of motocross photography, i only have the kit lens at the moment 18-55mm, and obviously i need to expand. Now, im on a budget and can't really afford L lens' yet. Speaking to a mate whos camera i've used, he has a 400D...

Best - spending £400 on a D-SLR (400D).. Worst - Buying a camera because now i want to keep expanding my camera bag, but can't afford any lens' :(

Go for it. I spent £400 on my first DSLR a month ago and i have no regrets. Currently looking for a good but cheap 70-300mm Canon lens.. Buy the camera that you feel the most comfortable using and that you can get a good feel on what button does what, etc. I chose the 400D, excellent...

Hi and welcome. Im from Rotherham, about a stones throw or 20mins drive from Sheffield.

So, the Tamron Lens in Jessops that a young lady told me was for a Canon, today when i turned up with my money, turned out to be for a Pentax.. Hmmm. So, im still on the look out, its highly unlikely, but id like it for this Saturday. Looking on ebay at a few Canon 75-300 USM 4-5.6 but...

So for my budget, either a Sigma or Canon? Im going to look at a Tamron 70-300 tomorow, £50 in mint condition, i could always sell it if its no good. Im saving for a Canon 70-300mm USM IS.

I got 2 SanDisk Ultra 2 CF cards from a shop on ebay, having read this i though id check, they turn out to be legit :) Having everything that your 'real' photo's show :) And best of all, i only paid £7 each :)

Excellent shots Richard, Im scraping the money together gradually. Would i be right in saying that on a 400D the 250mm would equate to 400mm? I'll see what crops up on ebay, if all else fails i'll check out the lens in Jessops..

Thanks, ill check it out :)

I need some help, far too many lens' out there. I have a 400D and require a good telephoto lens for sports (motocross) photography.. Tamron, Sigma? 70-300, 75-300? Another factor is cost, im pretty skint atm, but would ideally like the lens before christmas. Theres a pre-owned mint...

I bought a 400D Brand new a few weeks ago from Comet (£380).. The 18-55mm is good aslong as you can get close to the subject, it doesn't focus too quickly, but its a good starter lens and can produce some good results. Im on the look out for a cheap 70-300mm for sports.

Right, cheers for the advice, i wish i had the money for an L lens, Budget is really tight. I was in Jessops today and saw a pre-owned Sigma 70-300mm, had a look and feel of it and it was in pristine condition, and the best thing, it was only £55, so i may pick that up at the weekend instead...

Got my 400D brand new a couple of weeks ago (£380).. With the Standard 18-55mm lens, and although it worked for what i needed it to at the weekend, i really need to invest in something a little longer for outdoor motocross. So, i've been looking at the Canon 80-200mm on ebay and they're going...
