400d for £320 with kit lens!

do it.

enough for now.
but i'd seriously consider a SanDisk Extreme III 4gb CF card - I've had mine for about a week and love it - it holds silly amounts aswell - too many for the camera to display (got a max 3 digit readout and under jpg compression it constantly reads 999)

As I've said already (twice) it's only £35 more for brand new, but I'll see what the guy says in the thread

Thanks for spotting it for me

So, I ended up buying the second hand one

£310 including postage, rather than new which would have been £375 including postage.

All paid up, just waiting for delivery now - will take it to the scientology protest with me next saturday and see if I can get any good mob shots

Also bidding on a Sigma 30mm f/1.4 on the bay at the moment

Had it delivered a while ago now, feels really nice, haven't had too much of a chance to play with it yet in low light. Got my first gig *job* coming up soon, Ill nino gig somewhere

Did you win the Sigma dude? It goes so well with the 1.6 crop cameras.

SidewinderINC · 28-03-2008, 01:49

No mate, didn't win it in the end - though depending on what paytime brings (a few hours away - WOOOO) I might buy it new at £195.

Chuckles · 28-03-2008, 01:50

That's a decent price for new. I flogged my old one for £190 second hand.

Unless anyone knows any reason not to buy from these guys?

Chuckles · 29-03-2008, 12:55

Yeah, I don't they they are UK based.

Edit : Confirmed, they are based in HK. You may as well get one of ebay if you are going to go down that road.

SidewinderINC · 29-03-2008, 12:57

OK, so what's the problem with all the *new* ones on ebay?

any problem with fakes?
