I currently use an RX100 MK1 which I love and fancy getting a DSLR too so is there something around the £400 mark which is the must have one?
I don't need WiFi or GPS but would like a couple of lenses if possible & I'd prefer new for warranty etc also I assume it will be a good upgrade on the RX100?
Cheers :)
 
I'd like the £400 to include lenses if possible although what type I couldn't really say, I still don't know much about them :p
I'd use it for wildlife on the whole, sometimes fast moving and at distance.
It doesn't have to be a DSLR but I'm not sure what other options there are really, I just assumed that would be best:)
 
Well the decision was taken out of my hands somewhat (which is handy) as I was given a Nikon D5300 with Nikkor 18-55 mm f/3.5-5.6 VRII lens for my birthday.
I have to say it's great fun and seems more than capable for the type of shots I'll use it for.
I would like a greater zoom lens though for action shots, specifically birds in flight and cricket, so what would complement this camera best in the region of £250-£300 and why?
I only ask why as I've seen a Tamron 70-300mm for £85 or so but I don't know the difference between that and a similar branded/specced one for £250 :o

Cheers :)
