Looking to purchase myself an SLR soon but i have no idea what to get, what would be the best camera package for and amateur photographer? been looking at nikon and am quite happy with the functions they have...........

B.

I'd definetly get Nikon D40 or D40x.

Cheap, good and user friendly

I got a D40x for the same reason as you and I love it.

canon eos 20D :-D

OR samsung nv 10, more mega pixels than ma slr! nice compact camera

£300+ for a camera to take pictures

and.....a mans got needs!

I got a Fuji S6500fd last year as my first digital SLR, its a cracking little camera and really easy to learn how to use

The S6500FD is a good camera, but is not an SLR.

ild recomend a kodak disposable personally, only problem is i cant ever work out the flash

i assume you're talking digital SLR.

Canon 400D, good for beginners and advanced photographers.

i have one and i have absolutely no complaints at all.

here's an example from my 400D, that's with a sigma 10-20mm wide angle lens.

After using a range of Canon SLRs and Nikon D70s and D80s i must say the Canon's seem much easier and simpler to use.
