I want to get my boyfriend a really good digital camera for his bday and ive been looking and i havent got a clue to what brand to get, i also want to get the best for the money that i am going to spend im thinking about spending £400 maximum for it.
So anyone who has any ideas it would be of great help.
Thanks

hi, is it a compact camera or a dslr, i know that you can get a canon 100d in argos for around the £400 mark, and because its canon there are a greater options for lenses etc. for compact cameras ive used samsung and kodak, i find the samsung ones to be really good value, you should maybe look around on electrical or camera hop websites irst, see whats in your price range and then look into reveiws of the cameras

i want a dslr one ... if they are the ones where u can change the lenses and stuff! I just want to know which one would be the best quality, was looking in argos, and honestly didnt know where to look for reviews on cameras then i was told by a friend to post on here want to
get him the best one that i can as thats what he deserves!

nikon and canon are generally regarded the "best", after having a scout on the argos site i found two which are in your price range

I'd definitely suggest a cannon. My mum's camera is brilliant and it's by cannon, it's buy far the best to use and you can choose from different lenses.. good luck.
