Ann, As mentioned my old compact digital is knackered (full of sand - wonder how that happened ? lol). I've bought a Nikon D50 with an 18-55mm lens. Now I just heave to learn how to use it lol Paul

Hmmmmm...... *stomping off in disgust at brazen flaunting of new toys* :O)

*note to self* be more specific when mentioning 'playing with new toys' to certain people

Diana shut your eyes love. Paul If you have ever used a 35mm camera (SLR) the difital is no different. if you haven't you are in for a steep learning curve, but you can still use them as 'point and shoot', you don't have to use all the clever bits, although if you do it is more fun. Thinks ' good job it is black not pink or she'd have a real hissy fit! Ann Glos

mines silver lol I've not used anything other than a point and shoot compact before, first film and then digital. So, as you say, steep learning curve.

did you pick it up OK Paul Ann Glos

Paul I'm so glad you treated yourself and yes you do deserve it. Tom is playing with his new toy at the moment too! We bought him a digital SLR for his birthday last week. I treated myself to a few new things last week and a new skirt yesterday and shall be buying a little something to wear to a ball on Saturday night. Like you, I think I deserve the odd treat. Daisy

Yes Ann, picked it up after work. Had to charge the battery for a couple of hours, but have now taken a few shots. Software is installing now, and then I'll see how they look... Daisy... of course you deserve it too lol

Let us know how you get on with it. Ann Glos

I've dragged this back up cos now i think GR are taking the mick out of me!! Have you seen the ad - bottom right asking how many shots your memory card holds? Well my 4 memory cards hold LOADS of shots but the damn camera is broke so no chance of proving it!! PMSL!!

*is glad Diana noticed her request to GR to post said advert* *cackles evil laugh*

IT'S A CONSPIRACY!! :o)
