    anyway heres the camera i saw maybe someone might no where it can be got for a better price and how does the cash back work do a no http://www.currys.ie/Product/NIKON-D3200-DSLR-Camera-with-1855-mm-55200-mm-Telephoto-Zoom-Lens/318277/174.0″ onclick=”window.open(this.href);return false;

    Only the 18-55 lens though. Sorry missed the second lens in your link

    Up to yesterday they had an offer of 100 in vouchers if you bought it

    Most of the entry level cameras are pretty much on a par, the most important thing is
    that the camera should feel right in your hand, now hands vary enormously so it is really
    important that you go to a decent camera shop and handle as many cameras as possible,
    they really do vary and you will soon know which one feels right. Prices are much the
    same but it is always worth asking for a discount, if you don’t ask you don’t get!

    Finally have you thought of buying second hand? There are some real bargains out there,
    the Nikon D90 is a fine camera and can be got refurbished at around €399 without lens
    though, a second hand 50mm lens would be around €100 and a great lens for starting off.

    A word of warning though………..it is highly addictive! :D

    Oh forgot to mention, the Nikon cashback is like a debit card, the amount of the cashback
    offered is on the card and you can use it just like a debit card.

    Agree with Jenny, do think about a good second hand, you may get more value for your money.
    Just make sure you buy from a reputable dealer.
