I was looking at getting a Canon 350D second hand, they're going for about £150, that was even in a shop I saw that, better seeing it than buying from ebay.
That said my girlfriends got me a 2nd hand Kodak for £35, take perfectly okay pictures of reasonably fast moving objects. I've zoomed in on a lot of these to crop to something more interesting but for thirty five quid you can't complain.
