Edd ClioSport Club Member Car Ghibli/Boxster/197T Mar 19, 2009 #1 Would it make a good starter DSLR? What would you expect to pay for a second hand one? Body+Lense+Battery, 4 years old VGC. Thanks.

T Teshi Car Renault Clio 1.5 DCi Mar 19, 2009 #2 These are pretty dated now so you might be able to pick up one for about £150'ish but might be slow to write etc. What is your budget? For about £400/£500 I would go for a Canon 450D with lens, or a Nikon D60 with lens.

T Teshi Car Renault Clio 1.5 DCi Mar 19, 2009 #4 Start with the 300D if you can source one. Some good deals. Not sure if the Canon D30 would be worth your while but still worth considering. http://www.mpbphotographic.co.uk/index.php?id=26&category_filter=20

Jungle_Jim Car 1.2 Dynamique billabong Mar 19, 2009 #8 for a similar price you could get a 10D, which is what i would pick as it has a magnesium body rather than plastic so feels more solid.
