I'm a Nikon D100 user with two or three lens ect. ect. and love it to bits
Edge:
http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/index.php seems a good place to look for extra advice. They seem to advise go for a Nikon for better upgrade possibilities.

A quick update but first of all thanks to Narked for this thread in the first place - it helped me get my finger out and buy a new camera !
Also thanks to everyone for all the help and comments
Went into Currys in Greenock yesterday and had a "feel" of the Canon 400D and the Nikon D40x
The Nikon immediately felt right so that's the one I plumped for (another deciding factor is it uses SD cards which I already have plenty of, instead of compact flash cards used by the Canon, which I would have to buy )
Canon was £429.99 inc. 18-55mm lens
Nikon was £ 399.99 inc. 18-55mm lens
Trouble was the only Nikon they had left was the display model which actually worked in my favour as I managed to negotiate a wee discount for being on display - they knocked £39.99 off so I got it for £360.00 all in
Just need to find the time to read the manual and start taking some photos now !
:wink:
