I have just brought a Nikon F80 with grip from Ebay for just over £35 delivered :D no lens but I have my nikon 70-300 I can play with and plan to get a AF-s 50 g lens in the future.

Also I picked up a couple of 35 m 200 colour films from poundland.

Now just got to wait for it to arrive...... come on mr postman I want to go out and play.

I'm off to Chester next weekend so may take it with me then although not sure I'll have space...
 
Well done Mark and welcome to the club. Look forward to seeing some of your shots.

Great news! Poundland Vista is an extremely competent film too. I look forward to seeing your shots posted here!
 
The F80 arrived today :) looking forward to getting home and trying a lens on it. It even has batteries in ready to go:)

The only one issue is the body is a bit sticky in places so will need to try and sort that out
 
Sticky backs is a trait of some Nikon camera,s, don't try to clean it up it never works, just live with it.
 
Well I've had chance to have a play with the F80 although I haven't actually taken a photo yet!

I'm planning on taking it opn my trip to Chester so will try and get a few shots with it then.
 
Welcome to the slippery slope that is Film. Next you'll want to get a Medium Format camera, then some b****r will suggest trying our a large format...
