Hi all,
My first posting so bear with me..... After a few years of using my trusty digital Canon Ixus II i've decided i want to take the next step up the ladder and purchase a digital slr.
I want to focus on the portrait side of photography (mainly to try and capture my two gorgeous kids growing up, but also possibly earn a bit of cash on the side doing something i enjoy) and thought i would ask you guys your recomendations regarding cameras etc that would best suit this purpose.
At the moment i have a maximum budget of £400-£450 for the camera and have been pointed in the direction (by my resident office photo guru at work) of the Canon 40d or the Nikon d40x.
I'm not adverse to buying second hand equipment so is there 'used' kit which would do an acceptable job for less money.
Thanks in advance and I look forward to your comments...
