shaunpauls7 131 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Well now that my game bag is hung up for the season i would like to try my hand at photography.I have thought about it a few times but never got round to buying a camera.So if anyone could give me some info on what i would be looking to get maybe pick something up second hand? Not something to flash just for starting out and getting the ropes of things. Atb Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rake aboot 4,935 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 To be honest mate, some dealers are using ebay now. Jessops have a used gear section, or nip out and buy AP (amatuer photographer) and check out the classifieds. And stick a wanted add on here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Coyotehunter 689 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I can sell you a Canon Xt (350) with battery grip 6 batteries memory card, if your interested, no lens though £150 I'd have to look at P&P but I doubt it would too pricey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Extremetaz 15 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Keep an eye out for the best quality lense you can afford, and just stick whatever back you can get your hands on onto it. Reason being that you'll upgrade the camera backs every couple of years - and every year they second hand market has better and better backs on it as a result (hell if you look around enough, 1DS mkII's can be had for about £800!!). Top notch glass on the other hand will stay with you forever! Happy snapping! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shaunpauls7 131 Posted March 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Well I ordered a new contract phone and got the chance of a free gift and picked a digital camera. Can anyone tell me if this camera would be okie to start out for now? It's the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ38EB-K? Atb shaun Quote Link to post Share on other sites
