:wave: Hi all, im 56 from Northants and have just started to get full interest back into photography after being well into it in my younger days in London. Over the years ive workied my way up from the brownie with built in bulb flash through the vatious Instamatics and Polaroids to a Karl Zeiss split screen viewfinder model and then my first SLR the Pratika and a darkroom at home. After dicovering the joys of motocycling and work givng me no free time I stuck with cheap cameras without too much interest.
That old flare is returning and I felt a bit out of place at Silverstone this yr and missed some good shots in Switzeralnd with my cheap Cannon digital with tiny view screen. (Good excuse to go back)

DSLR here I come
 
Hi & Cheers to you both
 
Hi there! S'pose I should ask before someone else does, have you any particular dslr in mind?
 
Hi & Welcome

Paul
 
What Type of DSLR ??? let me think??? :thinking:

Want it to look good and functionable to make others think i know what im doing.
Loads of functionable buttons.
Want a 3" screen.
A fast shutter speed down to prolonged opening for effect shots.
Wanting Telephoto capabilty (shame *** i have old Pentax spotmatic lenses up to 300mm
Easy to read LCD or onscreen display.

Oh Yeah one that can take pictures too
 
It's like 'light blue touch paper & stand well back'!! You've described my 40D to a 'T', but I just know there'll be more than a few 'Nikon-nites' waiting in the wings.....:exit:
