I thought for £18 (including postage)I can't go wrong! Thinking a wee nifty 50 MF lens would be another 20 and that will be a fun little setup.
How does everyone digitise their photos.... just thinking about it seems like a crazy thing to do as I have an awesome digital camera and lenses but somehow I've found the last few days shooting with the Dynax thrilling and it's really made me consider how I compose and setup for a shot! It's got to be good training for my photography skills in general.
Love the shots BTW!

I scan my negatives using Vuescan and then use Photoshop/C0lorPerfect to get the colours right. This is probably the best tutorial I've found on the process...

The only problem is the costs of VueScan and ColorPerfect. But worth it if you ask me.

Mike, the Dynax is a great camera; only thing missing is full manual shooting, but aperture priority mode is fine and the AF is pretty fast. Fast - 1/4000th - max shutter speed too if you have enough light at your disposal.
I shot nothing but Velvia 100 on mine for about 3 years and it never failed me. I had a fixed 50mm MF Sigma on it, here's a couple of very old shots from Japan.
As for film, I'd start out with some cheap B&W film just to get used to the camera, then hit up Poundland for colour st0ck.
