hello oh wise ones!
a friend wants to buy her first DSLR, having recently bought a bridge camera but now wanting to 'upgrade'. Let's stick with the Nikon range for now (I know... but let's!)
I've given a few pointers, just wondered what advice you would give? budget is as low as poss (isn't it always!), but happy to spend 400 on a D3100 deal in Jessops.
entry level DSLRs aren't my forte... it was D40/D60 a couple of years ago and I've not kept up to date with what's hot.
For 400, personally I'd be tempted to find a 2nd hand D90 and find a few extra quid for a 2nd hand kit lens... but is jumping straight in at a D90 a bit advanced for a first DLSR?
