Hi all,

Looking at getting in to photography, mainly hoping to take good shots of surfing, skiing and rugby, but also want to get some good travelling shots.

Don't have a huge budget, but am looking at the Nikon D-40, the Sony A-200 and a third, which is not a D-SLR, the Panasonic FZ-50.

Any thoughts on these or recommendations on others?

Thanks
