For some reason I want a new camera. I’ve been using a Samsung D75 point-and-shoot since the boyfriend bought me it for Christmas but I want something bigger and better, which is always the way with me.

Since every single person I know online pretty much uses a DSLR I want to jump on the pretty picture bandwagon and get myself one. I’ve always been one for keeping up with the Jones’ and my 7.2MP camera just isn’t cutting it, either that or I’m just incredibly rubbish at taking pictures. Example of a picture taken earlier today when out walking the dog (yes, seriously. I need better things to take pictures of rather than the dog or flowers).
Yuck, the settings were a bit screwed up but goddamn I want clear and lovely pictures!

I’ve been scouring eBay and I think I’ve found a camera I really want, but I want to know what you guys think first. It’s a Canon Digital EOS 400D and it’s £150 on Canon’s Refurb store. Is this a good camera at a good price? I’m mainly using my PayPal savings to purchase this camera which has accumulated over the past few months due to blogging about the best diet pills on the internet and such, so I have a budget of around £150 for my purchase.

If you have any recommendation at all for good cameras or great sites to buy one from please let me know so I don’t waste my money on a rubbish camera again.
