Looking for a decent camera/lens. It needs:
My budget is about £400 ($628 USD) (camera and lens combined if they come separately) Don't know too much about cameras. For home use, nothing professional but still want the good quality. |

http://www.jessops.com/online.store/products/78032/show.html?cm_re=Home-_-PanelDSLR-d3100-_-300512 Nikon 3100 Excellent camera for the money... This would be a good starter camera... A wide angel lenses you will NOT get for your budget, but you can always add lenses later on... As for the zoom, again that is a lens thing, however the 18-55 lens that is with the camera is not bad. I take decent photos with mine, I do however have the older D60 body. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.132594347410.119153.526812410&type=3&l=3cec3b0ad3 Have a look at the pictures I have taken here. The ones not of the animals are taken with the standard 18-55 lens :o) |

check out the canon t2i really good picture quality and also does a really good job with video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1pbJIzcIcw some comparisons to a significantly more expensive camera http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkFwZjuTues&feature=related |

Just to make it clear, I want a suggested camera AND lens combined in my price range. Anything between £300 and £400.
Most budget DSLRs come with an 18-55mm lens... This will be fine to start you off. You can then invest in lenses later on such as an 18-270mm (good allround) and still use the lenses when you want to upgrade the body. However this does require you to stick to the one brand for this to work.
