Hello
I'm in the market for a digital camera and am looking to spend around £300. I've been looking at second hand stuff and am tempted to a digital SLR.
There's a chap near to me selling an Olympus e20 outfit with 35/120 f2 lens, 28mm Wideangle and 200mm Telephoto all for just over £300. I've had a look on dpreview.com and it seems the main problem is that it's slow to save images. How serious a problem is this, bearing in mind I will be using it for motorsports occasionaly? I used to be fairly into my photography (olympus OM10) but have been out of it for a while.
Also how does it compare to other, newer camera's? If anyone can think of any other camera I can look at then I'd like to here from you, been looking at Nikon D50's(a wee bit ouit of my price range) and Fuji S7000/S9600 too. Or if anyone has anything for sale ;)
Cheers in advance
Brian
