I'd also look at the Nikon D40 and the Sony A200 - both good cameras, but if you want a lot of zoom range, £250 isn't really going to be enough unless you go for something older like the Canon D30 you have above.

Yeah, bit expensive though, considering the 1.8 is under £100 and I'd prefer to keep saving for the 70-300vr tbh Just wondering if anyone here had the D40 and 50mm f1.8

With Christmas not too far off now, was thinking of trying to get the 50mm f1.8 from the US (as my dad is going there conveniently before christmas :p ) The one question I have - is it worth getting with a D40? Will manual focus be annoying? Will they be releasing an af-s version of the f1.8...

Adventure 6 is a great bag for the money, especially if like me you do a fair bit of walking/cycling :) I also love getting new kit - if only I could afford that pleasure more often :p

Can only agree - I am happy with the end result :)

How about this:

Have a look at the Acer Aspire One in the for sale forums: http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=91421

What a race, and well done Lewis! On a slightly more negative note, I have no nails left :P

Here's mine (Larger version available of course) Matt

Well done! Best of luck in the future :)

As above, Sony A200 or Nikon D40, as I have - been nothing but happy with mine so far :)

Thanks for the replies - I have spotted the one in the for sale forum but unfortunately the funding isn't in place and won't be for a few months :( Looks like I'll stick with the kit lens and get the 70-300VR then Matt

I am saving up for some kind of new lens/lenses - my budget is around £250-300, and I currently have the D40 with kit 18-55. Basically, my photography is just general stuff and I also like to do aviation and airshow photography. My 3 options that I have come up with are: 1 - Nikkor 70-300 VR...
