I've got a canon 1000D with 18-55mm lens. perfect for an entry level.

Nitin I'm after a 550D as I want to start using it for video capture.

MPB photographic is an excellent site, the guy started out doing just nikon and canon used gear, but now does other makes. Really has taken off the last couple of years. I bought most of my kit from him and probably saved a couple of grand in total. And if anything he is over cautious with his descriptions. The vast majority of my 'used' gear may as well be new. - all boxes, mint condition etc.

Panasonic micro43 cameras are another option. They have smaller sensors than Nikon or Canon DSLRs so wouldn't be quite as good in low light, but they are smaller, lighter and easier to carry. Video on my Lumix GH2 is superb. Supposedly the new G6 uses the same sensor.

Well....

I've bought a GE X600 bridge camera.

So far I'm really impressed with it, picture quality is great, its easy to use and it was only £110.

It's 14.4 megapixels, 26x zoom...even records in 1080p.
