To make a long story short basically what i want to do is move away from the point n shoot market into DSLR.I have been using a Sony DSC 60 for the last 2-3 years and while its been great i do feel its time to move on and up.I do spend a lot of time outdoors and i do see some amazing scenes daily,be it nature,people landscape etc.I also have family who are very heavily involved in sport at national and international level,plus i have my sisters wedding coming up this time next year.I do feel very limited by my point n shoot these days,so much so that i just don't bother bringing it with me much anymore.I would very much like to improve.
So,starting out as an all rounder and newbie ,what are my options available?My budget would be in the 750 euro region give or take.I am looking into some evening classes local to get the basics right and to follow up with time.Do i buy new,second hand?I have a friend going to the states in a couple of weeks ,so do i get him to pick one up??
I had my eye on a Canon 400D a couple of months back but people seemed to have very poor opinion on the kit lens....
Any help and advice is much appreciated.
Thank you for you time.
