Any of those would be great, just check you don't pay more than the going rate! Personally I'd recommend the K10d, which is an enthusiast spec camera but would give you a lot of high end features to grow into at a low (under 100 quid perhaps?) price. I paid 90 for mine last year and I love it. It's not as good as most newer cameras for low light, but I rarely shoot over ISO400 anyway.

The tamron is a rock solid choice. Very good results even wide open. Mine is super glued to my k10 while my prime legacy lenses perform NEX duties.

Those shots are lovely Smeg! Very passable imitation of f1.8 or f2 on FF or film, although the lens's wide-open weaknesses are magnified a bit on apsc. (Note the strong purple fringing on the buggy).

I think the problem, or the beauty, of these images is that everything is evenly exposed and saturated. This creates a flat, shadowless appearance which is like a vibrant painting rather than a lifelike portrayal. Although our eyes can pick up more DR than a camera, we still discern the difference between dark and light areas.

The seal is very appealing, nice shot. Just been to Norfolk for the first time (the northern bit). Beautiful tranquil place. Not sure why I never thought to go before! Mountains aren't everything. Flatlands have their own sort of beauty.

Lovely set, number two is my favourite although it could take some cropping off the bottom (square crop perhaps)? Mind you, the sea in number 3 is marvelous too.

Wow, quite a strong effect! No. 2 looks like a (kitsch) painting! I like it though - something a bit different, and slightly surreal.

Fair and interesting review. Low on jokes!

Film is just great. FF goodness on a shoestring. Wouldn't want to go without the convenience of digital as well though.

I did not know that about the sponge tool. Thanks Shaun!
