Ahh, I see. It's amazing what can happen in a week though. I've been thinking about it all a bit more. Basically I want to take nice photo's of RC cars and dogs (the missus shows them see).

Therefore I don't think I need something as extreme as a Nikon D300 but on the other hand I'd hate to get a base spec body then itch to upgrade once I'd got the hang of it and come across the limitations.

I have set my sights a bit lower to either a Nikon D60 or a Sony Alpha A350, and assume I would be better off buying a body only and a quality lens? Nikon lenses seem to get good reviews but the Sony body seems to be a better camera. Hmmm.

Also, is it OK to use a flash indoors or does it distract too much? I can't say I ever noticed if Jimmy or Mark used one at Worksop as I was too busy trying to stay on the track but the last thing I'd want to do is annoy anyone.

Any recommendations would be appreciated. I think I also need to go off and get a photography book from the library too.
