Hi,

I moved from a Nikon D60 and was happy with 18-55 and a 70-200mm lens kits. I then moved to a Panasonic TZ40 as money was tight and I couldn't afford to replace the DSLR

To be honest the TZ40 suits 90% of my needs and I love the size and the length of the Zoom, but sometimes I am disappointed with the results. I mainly photograph the kids and Aircraft at Museums/ Or Airport approaches

I have a budget of £300-400, but could push to £500.

Options are Nikon D7100 with 18-105mm VR lens for £550 Secondhand
Nikon D3300 with 18-55 and then 70-200mm non VR for £399 ish New
Nikon D90 with VR 18-105mm and 70-300 Sigma for £300 secondhand

Or Do I opt for a Bridge Camera?

Help help help!

Thanks

Barry

I'd go for the D90, 35mm 1.8 and Nikon 70-300VR - probably for less than £500. Excellent combo.
 
Anyone got any thoughts on the Panasonic FZ330. The thought of lobbing about multiple lens is steering me towards something like this?
 
I bought a bridge camera for a safari trip to negate the multiple lens situation. Worked well. Has its limitations, but still produced brilliant memories.....(-:
 
I have a Panasonic FZ200; Very happy with it; no match to my 700D and kit, but its half the weight and cost. Overall, quality is excellent .
 
I have been looking at the FZ200 as well

I'm really wanting something for videos as well. I am thinking if I could get something equal to Panasonic V750 I would be able to sell that and give me extra funds towards the camera...

Been trying a few DSLR's in JL this afternoon and I am taken with the D7200 range
