I recently got this from here:

http://www.camerabox.co.uk/product1.asp?ProductName=Olympus%20Mju%209000%20Black&ProductID=6642

I'm very pleased with it, and the online price - with extras included - was better than the high street price for the camera alone.

This website is pretty good for reviews (linked article is the camera I bought):

Here's mine, I'm very happy with it. Compact and easy to carry. 8+ megapixels and makes great films, also voice recordings. Very good long range zoom.

Thanks well i'd seen one a few weeks ago but it was always out of stock but today in Llandudno i found it and a bit cheaper so i will be out this weekend snapping away.

It's a Sony Alpha 200 10MP DSLR.

Those Sony SLR's are excellent cameras, you'll have alot of fun with it as my mate who owns one gets some cracking shots.

Cheers i need to get a memory card duo whatever that is.

Thanks Porty. I look forward to seeing your pics.
I like the Sony cameras. The one I have is a Cyber-shot, 7.2mps with a 3x optical zoom but its a compact and though very handy I would like an SLR.

[Blober]

Thats probably the only downside with them they make you use their duo stuff, i much prefer CF cards.

[Porty]

Yes i've noticed that im having loads of fun with it so far only i've noticed the indoor pictures are dark, i might have to look through the book me thinks.
