My daughter has been given a Canon 400D by her grandad the camera is fine but the lens had some fungus, unfortunately despite the best you tube advice we can't get too all the elements to clean it.
does anyone have a suitable lens for the canon they may part with ( cheap and cheerful)
Failing that is anyone interested in a canon 400D body with extras (I'm a nikon user so it would make sense to go for a nikon body and lens)
Trawl the used lens sales in Harrisons Camera's or ebay. If its cheap then look for non-canon branded stuff.
If "cheap" is around £100, then I can absolutely recommend the Canon 50mm STM f1.8, we used it for our 400D and it takes beautiful pictures for the price (£80-90 first hand). Really excellent small lens.
In reply to jethro kiernan: You should be able to source a used 18-55 for about £40, or are you looking cheaper still??
(I see the 400D is a 2006 camera, so I'm not sure about compatibility of a likely newer 18-55)
edit - sorry, looks like you are probably already sorted!
If you do make the decision to get rid of the body and go Nikon, I am seriously considering getting out of SLRs at the moment and could probably be persuaded to part with a body for cheap.
