Thanks guys, I have tried a nikon D60, as well as a canon eos 350/400d; and an olympus (I think the 410), just from borrowing other peoples' cameras to take pictures of my work. I haven't found any of them hard to use... I think it's true that there really isn't much to separate them. I reckon either the Nikon D60/40x (dependent on which one I can find cheaper) or the 400d would do me absolutely fine - lens compatibility i think is gonna be important for me in the future - just need to find which is cheaper.
