Depends how serious you are and what you want it for.
Thats interesting Bob, that we both use the same Nikon and I use a Canon Powershot, which has on-board image stability control for my dodge hands. It is small and light. I tend to use the Nikon for action shots, like at the BTCC last year, bird photography and the Canon for the meets, for the moon shots or if I am travelling. I find the Nikon with the 300mm lens is heavy to hold unless I use a tripod/monopod.

The sky really is the limit with the price of cameras. I started out in the 1970's with a Brownie camera, simple and uncomplicated.
