    Camera Insurance

    Ok the extended warranty is actually what Im looking for. Just got a price from Dom & General ( thanks peach ) and they quoted £139 for 4 years starting from the end of the man.warranty which seems expensive. I thought there may have been a stipulation to take out insurance/warranty extension...

    Camera Insurance

    No public liability. I just rang Photoguard and they said their insurance covers theft/accidental damage but not repairs should a camera fault occur.Is this normal?

    Focal lengths

    Ok I dont think I explained myself correctly. Take an old 35-70mm lens for a 35mm Camera and a 18-55mm for digital. If I zoom right in with the digital lens,will I see the same picture through the viewfinder as I would setting the 35mm Camera lens to 35mm and the same setting it to 55mm and 70mm?

    Camera Insurance

    Best company to go with? Also is it best to take it out when buying the camera or can you do it when your man.warranty runs out?

    Focal lengths

    Was told today a 18-55m lens for example is the same as an old 35mm Camera 35-70mm lens.Is this true? So what would a 55-250 be the same as in an old 35mm?

    Cannon 500D or Nikon D5000?

    As a shop assitant told me most sales go to Nikon or Canon.Therefore its makes choosing a camera slightly easier as these two seem to be by far the best cameras. Would be a nightmare if all the other makes were as good. Then if you beak it down even more,once you decide your budget then you...

    Cannon 500D or Nikon D5000?

    Rang Jessops just to check they had plenty of Canon 500Ds in stock otherwise if they were low on stock would have gone there after work to get one instead of tommorow. They only had one in stock and that was the display model ! Pathetic.

    Cannon 500D or Nikon D5000?

    Jessops will basically match the price of any shop thats advertising on the net even if that particular shop or a branch isnt near your town. Rang a few places this afternoon to try and con a shop into faxing me a quote of lower than £569 for the Canon so I can take it to jessops tommorow but...
