I know you'll say second hand, and whatnot, but I am completely ignorant, so wouldn't even know what brands, models etc |
Well, do you want second hand? That's your best bet, if you're looking so save some $$$. You'll get better equipment, starting out. That's how I did it.
I can only really help you on Canon gear though, I have no experience with Nikon (and if you're buying DSLRs I would really only recommend either Canon or Nikon. Sony's stuff is good, but like all Sony stuff, it's over priced).
The lens is where you'll start forking over the cash.
What sort of photography are you looking at doing?

Yeah I don't mind second hand, for the reasons you mentioned it seems much smarter..
it'd mostly be up-close stuff, photos of people, crap like that, nothing too full on, or in need of super-quality (like your stuff) and most likely no OMGHORIZONSHOTSINCEI'VENEVERSEENTHESKYBEFORELETMEPHOTOGRAPHIT...
I know more people with canons and would be happy going that way
what'd be a rough cost for body and crappy lens (is there like a standard entry level lens, or are there hundreds of different lenses?)?
@vernon will have a look at those too, cheers
