Ooops sorry meant to say! The kind he's been on about cost around £200 - £250 I think! I could manage up to £150 - hence the search for second hand!
Does that help? Or is there a decent new one available within my range? Neither of us are very technical! |

Thanks, as always, Wiz! Problem with sites like that is that I have no idea what all the techy stuff means!!
He wants it, mainly, for taking photos when he's out mountain biking. He wants something quite robust and reasonably compact that takes good quality pictures! |
