Hi, so I'm in art-school and I now have classes such as photography (7hours a week) photoshop (4h.), drawing, etc.

And I have to buy a good camera.
So I've looked for some secondhand sales and I have gotten the offer for a:

- Kit: Canon EOS 400D + 18-55mm + 55-200mm + BG-E3 for 645eu

- NIKON D200 Body for 675eu


Now, I'm a total dumbhead in cameras since (until now) they were too expensive for me, now I can afford myself a pretty good camera, I've got a budget around 1100€ what should I buy or should I go look for another one, wich one?

Oh and I wish to continue my studies in photography (or digital design, but will keep photography as one of my main hobbies)



A lot of thanks,

Goran.

Hi 2Millions.. Both the cameras are on their own league (400d - entry level and the D200 - semi pro level). If you're new to DSLR the 400D is good enough since you're getting 2 lenses and a battery grip. Since you're getting second hand DSLR, do look out for the shutter count as well. :)
