Oh hai!
I've had a Nikon D40 for a number of years, but barely used it. In fact the last time I used it was 3rd July 2010 (there's a wedding placecard in my camera bag). It's too bulky to carry anywhere as everywhere I go I normally have a crap tonne of gear with me. All I have with the D40 is the kit lens, which isn't very good for anything other than things that are next to you (but not too close).
So I need a point and shoot style camera, since I'm not exactly looking for arty shots, just the recording of memories.
First, what is the D40 likely to be worth second hand? It's pretty mint, must have taken no more than 1000 shots on it, probably less. Lived in a padded bag it's entire life so no dents that I can see.
Second, what am I looking for in the 200 odd quid range for cameras?
