pentax aren't bad but I certainly wouldn't buy from argos,there are cheaper places than that..for that money you could get a nikon d80 or canon 400d..which are better cameras. _________________

Consider a Fuji S3 Pro, nkion fit and superb cameras (there are nikon bodies)
£400 will get you one on e-bay at present..... and no I'm not the person selling it I used to own two of the S2 pro's great bits of kit!!! _________________ Live for today as your dead for a long long time
