Hi,
I'm sure you have had similar posts to this before, but would appreciate any help.
Enjoy using my shoot and click and in the past have mainly taken photos of new buildings, landscapes, mates windsurfing and even absailed of a cliff for a picture of a waterfall, lol. So as I enjoyed it thought I would get a small DSLR.
Been into the shops, and eventhough was impressed with the Sony, Nikon just feels good in my hand, so decided to go that route. My max budget just now is about £400, and have the following options (estimated prices including bag & memory card)
D40/18-55 £307
D60/18-55 £360
D60/18-55 VR £390
D40/18-55/Tam 70-300 £400
I know people may say get D60 if you wish to crop, but hey I dont know yet if I will be cropping as only getting into it. Also on a 18-55 is the VR necessary or is it a gimmick. Also is a 70-300 good without VR? (might be usefull for windsurfign shots).
Any help would be good.
Thanks
