Which camera?

[plentysideways]

I'm looking at buying a Digital SLR camera and wondered if anyone has any opinions they'd like to share as to what is good and what is not so good. Budget is £450 ish and the camera will be used for shooting cars, both moving and stationary, some landscapes and some general family stuff.

Any thoughts good and bad welcome

Thanks

Mark

i'll jump in first - canon digital slr kit with 18-55mm lens to get ya started

Me Taffr, GJ all use them to reasonable success - then you can add lenses at your will

are my pics with my canon shite then

[taffr]

got my canon 450d from there with a twin lense deal for under £550, got the camera body an 18-55mm lense and a 75-300mm lense for that money, as grum says, it has plenty to be getting on with

eck i thought you had a Nikon, sorry

your pics are the best

I use a nikon D80 with various lenses.....
Second hand gear can also be excellent value for money, just did an ebay sarch & found this kit http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Nikon-D80-Digi...item2c5a704d34 Would have cost around £1000 new a couple of years ago.

This also looks good value. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Nikon-D5000-12...item3a629b0a31

To be honest most of the new DSLR cameras be it Nikon or Canon will produce quality pics.

i shoot with nikon, so am biased there. But to be honest i think as long as you choose nikon or canon in that price bracket you wont go far wrong anyway
