I have the Nikon D50, I moved from an N70 (American F70) I imprted my cameras from the States form Camera King, but you can get nice deals on Ebay
NIKON D50 DIGITAL SLR CAMERA 6MP - D 50 WITH 18-55 LENS on eBay, also, Digital Cameras, Photography (end time 07-Jan-08 20:09:30 GMT) for example.
I swapped as it meant I could use my autofocus lenses from my film camera
I would highly recommend this camera to you, as unless you are a pro, it will be all you need.
I use it for everything from hill walking portraits, and sports photography with ease. ABSOLUTELY no shutter delay either!
