Hello! I'm Carla, I'm 23 and I've lived in Essex since graduation in 2008... I'm still overexcited about the coastline!

I've always been the pesty person at parties with a camera, but took up photography as an actual hobby about two years ago... bought (and love) a Panasonic FZ50 but am now itching to be able to change lenses so am saving for a 'proper' DSLR... haven't quite decided which one to go for yet though!

I don't do as much photography as I'd like to, and I'm trying very hard to make 2009 the year I spend more time on it and improve... and hopefully do some people-based photos as well :D

I also talk a lot... :lol:

Anyway, it's lovely to be here *waves*
 
Hi Carla,
Like your signature :)

If you put up a post like "what DSLR should I buy?" I expect you'll get loads of differ recomendations

But let's have a quick straw pole on this thread = Nikon 3, Canon 1 - not that I'm biased :lol:

Seriously it's a lot of money and you want something that suits you and what you want to do.
Go to the local camera shops, try lots of camara's ask questions.
Set a budget and try cameras in that range - even then you will get the "for just another £100" temptation.
The other thing to watch is the price of the lenses and if you upgrade the body will the lenses still fit and work correctly.

Have fun - looking forward to some posts.
