lol watch it get like 20 bids now

lol wouldnt surprise me if theres someone else on here who's interested

Truss. Bidding starts in the last hour.

yeah im just HOPING that i can grab it for £300. people get tied up in bidding wars on other listings and HOPEFULLY overlook this one...

There won't be a difference with similar spec models, it's just what you prefer and feel comfortable with

PRICE is what i feel comfortable with :lol: just lookin for something entry level with aperature priority a bit of zoom etc so i can take some portrain shots with the out of focus background etc...and hd video recording. seems like £300 is the least i can look to spend

any other recommendations?

f*cked up my 550d last week. exposure button jammed.. So I copped the 600d a few days ago. A decent improvement for the videos

gettin my 550d fixed..once they sort it out I will shot it.

That sony nex5 is a good shout for videos. I tried it out. Wouldn't be bad as a second cam.

I got it for 600

still trying to get use to the controls. I used it for a wedding shoot the other week. I was impressed with the imporvements

They seemed to make things a bit more idiot proof/ user friendly which gives it less of a pro feel than the 550d.

But, the swivel screen is definitely a major bonus. I was on the brink of coping a portable monitor for my 550d. for those low angle shots. But this screen helps alot.

The microphone control is also a big bonus without everything peaking like the 550d.

Built in wireless flash control. I haven't tested it yet. But again this is a major bonus for flash photography. Also sounds like you can use the built in flash with speedlites.

550d I still a solid contender but I feel that those who use it for videos strictly will definitely opt for the swivel screen.. MAJOR advantage

Most critics are saying canon need to come with something ground breaking with their eos range. I

just copped a d3100 couldn't find any good deals online so £400 from jessops

ended up paying 700 in total for a kid with a bag, UV filter, screen protector, 8 gig memory card, 2nd lens (zoom), 3 year accidental damage cover and 30quid of free prints

I hope that's a decent deal but my bank account feels hurt.

this should be fun
