Looking At Starting

Hi guys, I am in the market for a new hobby, and photography is no.1 on my list, so after a starting camera with a budget of about £250.

What do you guys reckon I should get? Or is it a case of save up for a month or two, then get one?

Thanks,
Kris

Hmmm, I was thinking I would have to save a little, no worries, just that I have a week off work next week and wanted to pick up something cheap to do then.

Will keep my eye out for bargains! :-)

Well what I mean is, I have £250 to spend now, but if I save, I will have more =]

Trying to cancel my new tv stand I ordered, which will take me up to £450, so that is much better =]

Any ideas on that budget?

Well, I took the plunge and bought a Nikon D60, but it is just the body, as I can "borrow" AF-S lenses off my other half until I buy one or two of my own =]

I travel to a lot of nice looking places (Mid Wales, Brecon Beacons etc) with my job, so will probs take a lot of landscape shots.

As Schizophonic said, it will give me a chance to get in to it, without spending loads of money (got for £160, second hand with 6,000 exposures)

Will no doubt post photos up soon enough! =]
