Babe Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 Have done a search so not duplicating, despite the recent threads! Got £500 for my birthday to put towards digital SLR. Want to buy just the basic camera and lense, and buy bigger lenses later on, so thinking of the Canon EOS500D. Can get one for £500.99 on most websites. Few things I'm wondering: 1. Anyone got one? How have you got on with it? I did have the EOS300 and EOS500 film cameras with lenses and they were great. 2. Did anyone buy a camera before/after xmas last year? Are the prices going to go down after xmas, or are the pre-xmas deals going to be better? 3. Can I use my lenses from the film SLR on a digital? Seems to be some dispute over this when I've asked other people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Babe Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 Brill thank you! Anyone know if it's worth hanging out for sales after xmas, or just buying it now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
