Hi there.

Been told this is a good place to come, so here I am. Just an amatuer photographer really, nothing special. Don't yet own a DSLR, looking to buy one very soon (next week) was going to go for the Nikon D40, but hoping there is maybe a better option someone might suggest??

Hope to chat more soon

:welcome: to TP ... all I would say about buying a camera is take someone with to keep control of the budget or it will be for just another £50 and just another £50 ...

Have a good play before you buy, think what you want the camera for, if it's not comfortable for you to hold and use then you will get annoyed with it.
Just a little rider to the budget thing if you will really get a feature you want for a little extra go for it otherwise you will think your cameras not really what you wanted.

If you can't find what you want walk away - you can always go another day.

Anyway have fun :)
 
Welcome Sallybear :)

I too am from the Wirral, Greasby to be precise.

If you need any advice on where to by locally send me a message and I will help you and point you toward some "better" and more trusted retailers.

Take care it can be a bit of a jungle out there but heah there your a Sallybear :boxer:

Welcome SB!
Make sure you know what type of pics you plan to take and it would be sensible to take up Chris's kind offer.
Good luck and enjoy - a really helpful bunch on here
 
Thanks everyone for such a lovely warm welcome. Chris, will be in touch and take you up on that offer, thanks :-)
 
Hi Sally :wave: and :welcome: to the forum :thumbs:
 
Hi, i'm from Merseyside too, on the Wirral, there seem to be a lot of us on here! I'd recommend trying the Canon EOS1000D, I bought one for my girlfriend and was also considering the D40. Try holding them both in a shop and see which one feels right!
