Mr Darn Posted July 28, 2007 Posted July 28, 2007 Cympil said: What make was the camera what you wanted like?Not sure, i just had an idea of what i wanted it to do. i know i wanted to spend up to £600, i wanted it to be good pixelrate, as i intended blowing up the pics to portrait size, had to have a flash (attachable is fine) had to be digital, and have a decent sized memory card or 2. A stand was a must, and it had to have the option to take instant pics (not time delayed like most i have seen, i want the image captured as i press the button, not 3 seconds later!)Oh, detachable lenses and a place to attach a stand is a must.A plunger interface slot would also be handy (for those perfect stills!) but not really that important.Any ideas?

It`s worth a go..just pick a catalogue online,say Littlewoods,pick summic small like a shirt,add it to your basket then fill in your details.You`ll know in a day or two if you`ve been accepted..then you`ll get about £700 to spend..camera sorted
