Another Lancastrian, it's raining here, too.
I've joined as I'm bringing my D50 out of it's retirement. I'm a hill walker. For the past four years I've been using a mixture of Powershot G9/various Panasonic/Nikon compacts. I've been reluctant to carry the SLR all day. Until now. I took it out a few weeks ago, realised it's actually not that much of a problem to carry it all day, once a suitable carrying system has been 'made'. Taking it out again has reminded me how much I love the D50. So, I'm going to use the D50 as my main camera, from now on. I'm keen to gain advice on a new lens, to begin with.
A little long-winded for an introductory 'hello'.
