oops I just bought a 16gb card too, didnt think only 30 mins of hd video would be sufficient

8gb sdhc card - check (requires minimum class 4 so had to buy a new one )
tripod - check
batteries - have lidl nimh2500's which run an explorer for 6-8 hours so hopefully these will do, will invest in more.

Now I just need me in the same part of the country as the damn camera lol ;)

Oops, one of these http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digita ... x_s2500hd/

*edit fix the link ...

The wife has been tasked with a visit to Argos as they tell me they have the camera in stock for collection tomorrow(finally as I've been sending her mad lol). I reserved it as soon as I got the mail, they seem to have 1 at each store locally. I won't get to play until I get back home though on Thur...

Pants, time to sell the wife again.

Another lucky winner won enough to make him grin

You know that "what can I sell" hat you have, can I borrow it .... let me see what I could sell...
1) Tandem
2) wife
3) kids....

Thanks guys, further vast amounts of reading and the fact that a Fujifilm FinePix S2000HD can be had for 150 quid, well thats the plan. cheers!

Thanks guys, think I'll have a look at the fuji, if I get hooked I'll think about and EOS then ..

I already have a point n shoot, canon poweshot - tis also great for macro. I'd like to move up a bit though ;)

OK chaps, whats the best camera to go for at around 150 quid, thats a bit ball-park, could be a little flexible here but for that price, new or used? how would I get most bang for bucks? (I already know a 450D is not going to get past 'er indoors no mater how much I grovel) I do however need a new c...

Just let me detect em for a few days and I'll let you know

Drovers track and enclosures springs to mind.

I love it when I learn something new
